Acceptant Poems

An enlightened rose

a thorn on the stem of rose in repose
pricked the finger of her deluded lover
yet with her last breaths she exuded love
mood and mode acceptant free from bondage 
resplendent in fragrance of her dying petals
recognising the source as breath of God

Acceptant heart

We 
notice
deception.
It is condoned.
We too once fell down
but then we made amends,
thus so shall this weary soul,
so who are we to pass judgment?
Soul’s presence centred in the void is
vibrant, blissful, nonchalant and tranquil.

Dwelling thus in the time stretched pause, the gap
where intent of heart throbs yet holds back.
Action begins but does not end,
thus extinguishing bondage.
As witness consciousness,
as both form and space,
at each moment
void-centric
soul is
free.

slow and steady

it took quite a while
for us to acclimatise 
to throb of magnetism 
incessantly cascading within 

we are now acceptant
and heart is receptive
to the perennial pulse
of God’s wondrous heartbeat

ego having been burnt
in the fire of divine bliss
our hollowed out form
Is a receptacle for soma nectar

there is no one here
save soul presence
witnessing in delight
beauty of the dance underway

Betrayal hurts

Betrayal hurts but we move on,
even though scars remain
and as we in nonchalance yawn,
the past to rest is lain.

Soul presence transcendent, 
tranquil eye acceptant,
makes ego decadent.

Though love yet spurts,
betrayal hurts.

Zen mode

the aspect of our soul that dwells in form
vividly senses bliss magnetism warm
and whilst we feel we’ve become acceptant 
does not memory make us resistant
presence anticipating each tingle
caused when body polarities mingle
but if we shift into the vibrant void
no longer by subtle desires decoyed
seeking nothing silence animated
pristine presence is always elated

are we

a holiday, this moment, life itself
as the flow of time brings it to a close
are we joyous, vibrant, tranquil, acceptant
alive, aglow, bliss suffused and in gentle repose

Zen Mode

seeking resolution
of conflict
we pause to examine
why we seek peace

is it for gain
or to entwine hearts
what is our intent

is their yet judgment
condemnation perhaps
for those who obstruct
or are we acceptant
always radiating joy
recognising 
there are no ‘others’
in this lucid dream

Zen Mode

the aspect of us
resident in form
in mood acceptant 
allows bliss to burn
residual delusion

searing magnetic heat
currents cool and warm
mingle with pheromones 
soma nectar sublime
transmuting mind-body

in the in-between stage
we glimpse the heavens
whilst yet in this vessel
a bilocation of sorts
viewed from the chrysalis

America, the Center Did Not Hold

AMERICA, THE CENTER DID NOT HOLD 

The center, woe the center 
Are we surprised it did not hold
Not even in America 
And if the truth be told 

When the two twin towers toppled 
We were stunned aggrieved and hurt 
Long gone the days of minute men 
No one to sound a swift alert 

With eyes wide open still so blind 
We failed to recognize
How much 'covid' would reek havoc 
Right before our very eyes

Relentless in its progress
Devastating all it touched 
No army couldn't stop it 
Even if one bothered much 

Still we dallied on so docile 
Till an enemy within 
Ripped and ravaged through the White house 
Bent on murder and revenge 

Men compliant and acceptant
Eyes fixed on money, power, fame 
No thought for country, without conscious 
Doubly dying, soil their name. 
 
                      -Reta Pruitt 
PS (There still are 'men with souls so dead')
-from 'THE MAN WITHOUT A COUNTRY'

Zen Mode

silence engages stillness 
entwining matter and void
wherein herein immanent
our presence transcendent 
cooperates with flow of time
to feel each earth life pulse
acceptant and receptive
being our choiceless choice
to create no unwanted ripple 
in the play already impulsed 
whilst yet infusing vibrancy 
in childlike innocence playful 
that the omnipresent witness 
pauses a moment to smile
beholding the lotus bud bloom

Zen

We have a yen for zen,
for we are a poet,
choosing to sing our song
without inhibition,
taking mankind along.

We have a yen for zen,
so follow not the herd
but carve our path through life,
moment to moment thus,
joyous, aglow, bliss rife.

We have a yen for zen,
free from fear and desire,
with malice towards none,
acceptant and at peace,
knowing we all are one.

We have a yen for zen,
so abide in silence,
connected to our soul,
dispersing love and light,
here in our earth life role.

The Way We Are

celebrating the gift of life
receptive and acceptant 
mode vibrant nonchalance 
surrendered to life’s flow
presence is centred in bliss
whose each hue is new
as it within us does renew
the outer follows the inner
in intuitive playful motion
resonating with vibrations
that emanate from the void
distilled by our radiant heart

there is nothing to be done
save embracing and releasing
the pulse of divine magnetism 
cascading within body vessel
in a time stretched continuum

Shhh - It Is a Secret

Waking up in the wee hours of morning,
pristine thought rested presence opens eyes,
when suddenly without any warning,
wave of bliss fills form; tremulous heart sighs.

Acceptant soul being in surrender,
gently flows wherever bliss beats so choose,
imbibing with joy, this divine wonder,
which ingrained deep within, becomes its muse.

Such are divine secrets for us alone
and there is no book which guides the process
but suffice to say, those with pure hearts hone
the secret technique for rapture ingress.

There is no doing in this becoming,
for it is simply dear, our home coming.

Zen Mode

premonition, deja vu and clairvoyance reveal
that life as unveiled has already occurred 
impulsed by soul in the ethereal domain 
there then being only limited free will
being response to life as it unfolds
where if we be tranquil and acceptant 
nothing at all need be done for all is well
recognising that this life is but a lucid dream
and time itself is an illusion replaying vibrations
already created but played out in slow motion
solely for our heart's delight and soul growth
which we have ourselves so chosen to feel
resolving conflicts in the cauldron of love
in time transcended blissful stillness

How Still Is Our Stillness

Acceptant eye in the midst of chaos,
detects a trace of subtle aversion
borne in heart, uncomfortable with loss,
thus yearning for deeper bliss immersion.

Endless seeking to become what we are,
signals soul's blossoming is incomplete,
for in stillness too we struggle and spar
apprehensive when dilutes love's bliss beat.

Identification with body-mind,
in as desiring a preferred outcome,
is the cause that makes us to God's light blind,
stupor stifling our soul's innate bliss hum.

Unless soul's awareness be rippleless,
we will be compelled to make do with less.
