Best Breathed Poems

You hung the moon
Accompanied by the night
You hung the sun
Accompanied by the light
You hung the clouds
Images of angels bright

What did I ever do to deserve
The mercy, grace and forgiveness
You’ve placed into my life, freeing me
Forgiving me and saving me from death
And the grave – the...

Whenever I touch my pen to paper, a faint scent of lilacs fills the air
It lightly kisses the tinged pages with my heart’s dried-up ink
Sitting in the shadows of my wordless noise vulnerable and bare
Paving the poem’s purpose, I know I’m on the brink

It lightly...

God breathed
	Hope across my soul
Music into my thoughts
	Joy all over my heart

God breathed
	Laughter into my mind
Pleasure on my ideas
	Kindness across my feelings

God breathed
	Inspiration over my plans
Harmony into my designs
	Sighs of love on my spirit

God breathed
	Wonders across my beliefs
Miracles to whisper praise
	Admiration into my faith

God breathed
	Satisfaction...

Longings for music that whispers softly 
Into my heart’s core, where beating echoes
Caressing dreams with miracles which
Arouse the spirit’s song with hues of crimson
Inspiration which...

Petrarchan Sonnet: If no one else breathed in this wide, wide world

If no one else breathed in this wide, wide world
   Will one know one exists under this sun
Or how will he guess he’s the only one
   If none thought of...

Granddad Breathed River Air


My grandfather worked on the river.
A tugboat captain was he by trade.
His jobs were diverse and he loved them.
Grandma and their children waited home.

As a teen, he helped ship a sculpture.
On the river he hauled in wrecked boats.
He tended the dredge for...

Air breathed in, thick with sorrow,
The night too dense with pain,
This sunrise barely compensates,
For battles fought in vain.
 
Care has taken up its place,
Behind her weary brow,
Drowning out the happy sound,
Of friendly laughter now.
 
The pain that racks her weary form,
Mere words could ill express,
The...

Embracing this-ness, entwined with oneness,
heart’s vibrant in blissfulness!

Knowing we are but dust, forged from earth’s crust,
alive owing to God’s breath,
to what shall we then cling?

This world we’re in, a lucid dream,
with life play but our heart’s desire,
hypnotic trance where thought forms stream,
on and on, till...

One night from deep sleep I awoke,
stirred by a light that gently spoke,
oozing love, seeking my consent,
for my soul’s heavenward ascent.

No sooner I nodded my head,
into the vast void, I was led
sans form, for I had vaporised,
truth of oneness clearly apprised,
feeling God’s breath in-dwell each...

Breath of God, inspiration so wise and warm
Filling my heart with a gentle touch from above
Whispering hope through my spirit’s shadow
Painting my thoughts with bold and vibrant hues
Sent to arouse visions of joy, peace and faith
Love that abides in the mouth of amazing grace

Breath of...

The air we breathe is us being so breathed
Gods life force within, that never wavers
An innate vibrancy, leaving soul pleased
Hark hearts love murmur, in gentle whisper 

Surrendered to soft divine entwined kiss 
As love in love with love, slowly draws nigh
We gasp in wonderment, suffused...

As we be breathed

Surfing the divide between heart and mind 
We celebrate the dance of illusion
Having vaporised, free from ego’s bind
Holy Spirit dispels soul’s confusion

Duality manifests through space-time
The universe appears and disappears 
We cognise in heart, the cosmic Ohm chime
As benign bliss beats, each node...

Paul the Apostle said "I once breathed apart from the law's voice
I lived in the clay of a singing bird or a roaring tamed beast
I lived as a breath outside of the lion's roaring voice"



Inspired by a quote from Basilides: "Indeed, the Apostle (Paul) has...

Before we go to bed we vegetate
No need for teacher but a compost heap.
And as we vegetate, we drift to sleep
While in our dreams our little mind debates

But mostly we’re unknowing in this dark
Where God himself may manifest at will.
His dazzling darkness makes our souls...
