I
adore
poetry
that is just there.
Unbidden words fall
in one quiet moment.
Infinite and fathomless,
a journey in a flowing breath.
Oh, sweet fathomless tranquility.
This writing of words is a gift from God....

Overwhelming

Is the rapture of love,
the grief for all those I hold dear.
O, infinite death, this throbbing aching.

This imprint on the mind,
never-ending pain of memory. 
O, the images, tokens, recollections.

All the dreams that haunt me,
vast paintings of days long past.
O, torment and anguish of love...

While my spirit is feeble for managing, my soul can. 
Each birth and death occurred throughout one's lifespan.
Undoubtedly, pride and ego inspirations are useless. 
I've isolated myself from the remainder of the universe.
 
They have irreversibly shattered our deep vulnerability.
Nothing is easily recognizable under modern tyranny. 
They...

How do I express
the very depth of my love

Un-----earthed 
my----self 
de--ci--sive--ly
Near-ly bust-ed
Lay-ing on rocks...
Weakened spiritually; Rejuvenation before long—
Tucked in that rock-bottom chasm, 
nevertheless kept dreaming—
Woking up— 
Surprisingly distant             from myself;
Although, woken to that seemly monotonus dream/thought... 
(As it is of you,...

OF FATHOMLESS MERCY

A surpassing story of old.
More than His saintly mother’s loss.
Weightier than riches of gold.
Lamb’s rhapsody bleeds from the cross.

O depths of fathomless mercy!
Bloodletting removal of dross.
The case for Christ controversy.
Lamb’s rhapsody bleeds from the cross.

A quietus sounded after
the moaning of nails, at a...

FATHOMLESS CAN'T RESIST

fathomless I can't resist
the quietus confronts that ties
eternity rhapsody confronts and contest
the story as it's lies...
       A fathomless rhapsody eternity story

He went on a pleasant trip; he had a change of mind
He did not know swimming, not at all, you could find.
But he wanted to be, in the midst of the shining sea, out there, a hypnotic call.

The sea never takes anything mercilessly away
Returned the...

These vultures were closing in on me,
A thousand unutterable fears bore unamendable holes in my mind,
Absorbed in a stream of thoughts and reminiscences,
All was a vague jumble of chaotic impressions.

Awaiting my summons to the eternal silence,
Buried hopes couldn't rise from their sepulchers,
Fathomless depths of suffering...

R-ain and cold chill disappear, 
E-arly morning March nine; 
L-onely evening has faded, 
Yes, another birth is
N-ow fine.

G-ray shadows have vanished, 
A-fter the long night is gone; 
R-ays from the beacon shine,
U-sing the break of dawn.
N-ew day has broken, as the dark dusk is over;...

A fathomless day
Visually blissful
Metaphorically ready

Musings from my 
Internal soul dragon
Suddenly heard

A blessed ribbon
Of purity wander
Into my heartstrings

Magnificent plumes 
Ribbon through my
Sweet marigold garden

Gauzy silky dandelion
Wisps guide imagination
And make poetry
