Ancient Shadows Awaken into God’s Light

Underneath the deep seabed the stirring sands of time have passed on.
Ancient shadows continue to haunt all of us from the oceans’ depths,
And insidious and violent nightmares portray bloody and evil visions,
As an old treasure chest is opened and a...

The east began blushing behind the trees
While the moon hung over the lea
And the velvet of night turned to sapphire hue
Like the blue of a newborn sea.

No breeze cared to move the whispering leaves
But they whispered themselves alone
And the first rays of sun kissed the...

I love to watch a farm awaken in the early spring,
Especially as the birds in the forest happily sing, 
The farm knows how to be itself, profound and true,
Like the faded red barn, quietly beholding the view.

In this moment, the farm finds its serenity,
Between sips...

Fever dreams and rusted scissors. There’s only two ways to look at this night. I awake only to have a gritty taste of bone dust in my throat. A reminder of events past. Sweating plagues, rebuilding strength for the hunt that’s to come. I can...

Unto the dawning light opening curtains 
one thousand dreams answered 
within your beam angel rays touch deeply 

Under the folds of love apple of the eyes 
as our lips join golden delicious bites 
a silent whisper sighs softly an air 

Escaping gently in song breathtaking...

awaken bagpipes
riled up in broguish accent
traversing drawbridge
of Cawdor Castle
enchanting chanter and drones...

I drift on a cloud above all the physical pain
I am eased by the wind and released like a balloon
Blue skies surround me with peace in the air
All I see are prominent, beautiful views below
I drift on a cloud for many miles
Not a seed of...

Awareness of everything

Wide open eyes

Asking questions

Kiss the conscious mind

Enabling the self to thrive

Never doubt your light

Time to rise up and revive

Outlandish imagery

Transcend the ordinary

Half-hearted is no good

Entice the passion from within you

Trust your existential self

Resonate ambitions of life

Understand it's with you

Transform everything you do

Hope grows...

Some days 
              are bright and sunny,
          While others

Awaken, my soul, to the rhythm of love, 
Let the breeze kiss you with the song it plays, 
Hearken to its sighs of susurration, 
Let the flower of kindness bloom afresh, 
Shaken when you are, hold fast to firm faith, 
Let the music of hope...

Some never awaken.
In the endless stream of my consciousness, amidst shadows that open like flowers
In the diffuse light of our drowsy existence,
I also hibernate, a traveler wandering through the crystal labyrinth of time.
Restlessness envelops me like a dark wave,
Each minute slipping into the abyss of...

I Awaken a child
to the nearness of my mother;
Feeling her breath of warmth--

(apparent is the joy
on her face
a labor well done);

my eyes maturing 
not quite focus
I trustingly reach 
for her special day
and mine
our discovery;

it is the grasp
of a newborn,

and the surrendering
of an 
infinite universe
to love....

This life we're living
Dreaming of a dream come true
Is only a dream...
