One last ticket. 
One last seat on the train. 
Running fast, 
to make it, before there is 
no chance to escape, 
the fate of the ages. 

Stone statues, 
frozen in time... 
put up, taken down, 
pulled apart and destroyed. 
Toys to the elites,

Relaxed, lying in a hot bath
Inhaling lavender fragrance,
Watching flickering candles
And shadows dancing on the walls,
Listening to the soothing music
Of Mozart’s piano sonatas,
She gently strokes her silky skin
While feeling her unborn genius
Making music of his own.

It’s a mixed up day
Nature wants to play
White snow with brown leaves
Blowing in the sunny breeze

Pinecones flattened on the road
In the arctic air, so cold
A white curtain at the mountain veils
Snow squalls fill the sky in trails

It’s a mixed up beautiful day
Nature wants to play

2: If you are irritated by every rub, how will your mirror be polished? Rumi

In realms of illusion,
pain is a sharp reminder of reality.
I've been polishing since the day I was born,
reluctant to resemble the 'Tin man,'
as there is no one to guide me
away from...

The way his perfectly messy hair 
falls upon the back of his head
with his breathtaking smile
that knocks me dead.

He could captivate a crowd
with just his dimples and laugh,
but you couldn't understand
from just a photograph.

He texts me once,
he calls me twice,
always checking up on me,
and always...

Thrown together
by circumstances
outside our realm
of control-
as in a bowl
our varied shells
create a still-life
a study in contrasts
of creative coverings
devised so well

Some like smooth pebbles
all polished and shiny
or rough and scarred
all coarse and craggy

Some barely masked like
peanuts, thin and papery
others heavily armored
walled off, impenetrable

Light and dark
bitter and...

3- “Let the beauty of what you love, be what you do. “ - Rumi

When the moon unfurls her magical wings,
  and stars come out; sparkling silver
I listen to soothing songs within my nocturnal heart,
    for unspoken thoughts, I let them rule.

I’m...

Quote: "Let the beauty of what you love, be what you do. "--Rumi

Upon life's stage, where passions brightly gleam,  
A sonnet weaves, a tapestry of dreams.  
"Follow your passion," whispers truth unseen,  
For in joy's embrace, fulfillment streams. 

In authenticity, find beauty's...

Poetry is a drug, mixed in the alchemy of the night,
An elixir of never-ending dreams, the bitter drink of wandering souls,
Poured into the empty goblets of thirsty minds,
And it flows, softly, through the veins carrying the sap of unspoken desires,
A sweet poison that opens gates...

Let's pray
Each day 
His  Blessings send 
Lord help hearts mend 
Eager to know Him more 
Each day more than before 
With Hope 
Can cope.

As a kid they said technology
would lead us to a better life,
and in many ways they are correct,
tech does many things right.
I suppose I was just naïve
to thing there would be no downside,
now I love/hate the internet,
there are a thousand reasons why…

I love that endless...
