Best Emergence Poems

I manage my planned early rise in hopes dawn will kindly provide me 
time before others converge in the joy bounce of family noise.
With silent glee for this vacation cabin, well worth our money splurge,
I tiptoe out to the porch.

Fresh, early morning beauty twinkle-dance performs...

Take her not away;
Lay her in my arms.
As night is bribed and swayed,
May day appraise my charm....

Michael, archangel of the realm, instructed Gabriel and Raphael to be messengers of God's word to man. God in his love for man, stepped quietly back allowing men and angels their free will.

He said, "I'll wait and watch for each to find their way and...

Covered in petals of roses, the bed in where Felicity is laid...
Laid forever in beautiful white with the most radiant sapphire enlays...
The choir sings a dulcet melody, while a plethora of loved ones softly cry.
The old grandmother clutches her talisman listening to the rhapsodic praise...

March paints a vibrant collage 

of charming gardens in bloom.

Birds arrive in entourage

as Spring emerges from Nature's womb.

The sky beckons me open these eyes and we do
The owl and I
We turn our gaze unblinking to the sky,
The heavens above and together we see
We see as two the clouds are touched with cerise,
Sighing into deeper hues until they merge
Merge with the water drained...

A Fairy sits upon the leaves 
And takes in the wondrous sights, 
Breathes in the beautiful aromas 
Watch children's eyes, sparkle bright. 

It had been a long winter 
She's happy to see flowers appear, 
She basks in the sun's rays 
Warm weather, is finally here....

In the pursuit of self,
I have lost your sense,
In thee thoughts of contentment,
I have lost your presence.

Solace is still in the way,
Straying me from your soul,
Still in dilemma of thoughts,
Who actually set this mirageous goal.

I am still aloof in the mob,
Surveillance effect lost its fervour,
You...

Existential—transcendent,
  my words free to leave

Though rooted inside me,
  their seeds He conceived

They shape and they fashion,
  a will of their own

Each moment unfastened,
  a prison disowned

Existential—transcendent
 they come and they go

In dreams they lie fallow
  my garden to hoe

I...

Entombed alive, (albeit barely)..........Eased
Moisture drops drip from coffin lid...Mind melts
Escape seems implausible................Exhume me
Rigorously clawing.............................Raising the roof
Gasping, groping, grief.......................Ghastly gasses pass
Exit plan nixed.....................................Eyes focused on flicker
Now shouting......................................Nearer to light, (here in dark)
Code red..............................................Calming after my embalming
Yells.....................................................Enlightened, and no longer frightened...

The bunnies emerge from their home 
On this beautiful spring day, 
The Fairies gather around them 
They laugh, dance and play. 

The Fairies gather up the Easter eggs 
That the Easter Bunny left behind, 
The Fairies share their treats 
They are being very kind.

Once upon a time
In the distant past
There was a country
Built by the sweat of her adopted children
And painstakingly through thick and thin
Became God’s own country
The light of the world
Whenever she spoke, the international community stood still
Enemy countries quaked and trembled
While allies scampered to mollify
The police...

Consciousness is the scintillating blaze
alive on a smoldering log,
a flame emergent from complex interplays
of biology and environment.

Consciousness is greater than the cumulative 
elements from which it is produced,
a roving free-form swirling cloud,
a wandering storm over the latest landscape.

Consciousness is always emergent 
like an undulating flock...

Here I am again 
2 am
Dishing out the pain
Washing it all out 
Breaking up the rust 
So that it evaporates 
So I can come out again 
So I can see the sun again 
God, I’ve missed that
Warm on my cheeks 
I can feel it burning...
