Best Intersects Poems

The first crystal drop 
of realization 
shatters your glassy surface

and radiates the idea outward
in reflective ripples growing in concentric circles 
with the newness of being thought of for the very first time.. 

one drop 
follows another 
in a thoughtful cascade
and a thrilling commingling of contemplative...

Summer resplendent sun glowing
in the photosynthesis of viridescent grass.
Waving blades like long fingers flowing,
the sudden sighing gusts come and pass.

The field lives palpable in the anamnesis.
I step through the Queen Anne’s lace,
I lay down on dense turf, where distress decreases,
Sun of repose wrings out pain,...

Sandstone erode into dust harks history's fade
Effected by events, weathered
Crept century torture administers eventual taint
Withered time drives incessant 

Battered slate roof removed promotes damage 
Cold rain and blazing sun hurt
Cyprus seeds challenge infertile dust, establish 
Passage through gathered dirt

Co dependent pieces redefine a weary structure
Fed...

Intense heat ripples across 
the vast sand dunes of the Serengeti 
where it intersects with the
silent shores of a rare desert lake 
a calm, cool oasis for both 
man and beast. 

Taj Mahal of the desert 
it is a liquid cradle of life
coveted by a...

We met at point forty five
At the stop, the beast on four wheel drives
I intentionally ask for the travel fee
Unconcerned about your impression on me

The moment you spoke of the bus cost
My numbers and calculations were lost
I wanted you to be the ying to my...

I'm in the life-long process 
of conjoining a Unitarian Universalist Green Sanctuary
communion of All Souls
living healthy 
on all wealthy Earth soils.

This is not my first time joining an intentional good-faith community,
but it is the first time I have signed a Membership Book
of historical,
spiritual,
natural cooperatively intentioned...

Too many sacred paths in front of us to trod,
no two intersects but each one leads to the God.

Tensions end on troubled notes.
Tired and weary she takes to bed.
Cascading rain endlessly,
A steady drum, it drips it's beat,
Cleanses and lulls her to sleep.

Awakened from a deep slumber
By a tempestuous noise of thunder.
The sky lit up with white-blue light.
Witnessed through her open window,
A wicked electric...

Trappings of femininity
Cagey breasts, Alexandrian perfume
An act of seduction
Not stupid in blunt fingernails
Painted rose a caressing owl
Scratches blood and snatches wallet
In crafty hands Love towels roll
clod in time my flesh intersects
the heat, boot and crawling insects....

Chilly breeze blows
Evening settles here;
Nearby croaking

~~~~~~~~~


May evening presides
Misty rain moans;
Haunting farewell

~~~~~~~~~


Lonely courtyard
Desolate chill;
Solitary tree

~~~~~~~~~


Empty street
Blurry lamp lights;
Lonely air echoes

~~~~~~~~~


Umbrellas moving
Rain drenching;
Wetness spills over

~~~~~~~~~


Cold cold air
Blankets soft skin;
Goosebumps tangle

~~~~~~~~~


Absent moon
Over the other side;
Lonely night

~~~~~~~~~


Hot tea brew
Warm comfort here;
Brief sustenance

~~~~~~~~~


TV drama
Good versus evil;
Staycation noise

~~~~~~~~~


Scattered verse
Fragments litter;
Impromptu lines

~~~~~~~~~


Late...

All night the rain poured and poured and poured
I could not imagine a sky's heart broken so
Loudly the trees sobbed, and winds also roared
Some loneliness in me rose too to overflow

No stars nor moon nor any light from heaven came
A dark cloud consumes the forms...

What are some things you learned
along life's way
better before you went to school
as compared to after?

Oh, you mean like love
of cooperative natural-spiritual learning
rather than
mistrusting ego's essential competitive nature,
divorced from cooperative spirit,
required to out-perform my siblings
and friends
and neighborhood peer groups?

Yes, that is a viral one.
But, if...

Memories bring bitter tears one day,
sweet comfort and contented sighs the next.
Those journeys down the roads we’ve traveled may
evoke a range of dark and light effects,
ennui or elation. Either way,
it’s where the past with present intersects.

Music intersects your soul with mathematical connotations
It is both logarhythmic and exponential in its ability to heighten or diminish moods
to multiply or reduce emotions
to cause enjoyment as well as reflection or introspection
 
Music brings joy to many people
as well as painful remembrances of times past,
of...

one day, while i was walking along the way as usual,
a strange thought suddenly occurred to me, i stopped 
and turned back instinctively 

“don’t stop, keep going your way
because the truth of the matter is the footmarks 
you left behind are nothing but bitter memories”...
