There are beautiful creatures to grace plains.
There are beautiful flowers for bouquets. 
There are beautiful people …
         natural and otherwise.
Whether people, creatures or flowers,
        there is beauty all around.

One cannot...

she runs down the hall 
she is meSsY 
she is LouD
she is an extrovert

being sad and feeling low has crossed her path but I bet you...

Looking all around, I see nothing but black. 
Yet when I look down, I see a sliver of color. 
A sign that tells me there is hope of going back.
Surrounded by darkness, you keep me sane 
In a sea of debris, you keep me safe
Here...

Don't blame the bearer of bad news -
A gun doesn't kill by itself or a knife,
Nor a violent video game or hostile views;
An evil act is but wrought by a mind's strife.

When you nurture a seedling or stunt its growth,
You can foretell it'll be a...

It seems awfully naive to think that you're the only ones
In such a vast universe you know so little about.
There are millions and millions of planets, moons, and suns
That can harbor the possibility of life, throughout.

The smartest people of the human race on planet Earth
Can't...

My true self I have hidden, 
And with bashfulness is ridden, 
And all that I am feeling forms an ultra-silent sigh; 
My throat contracts with dryness, 
I am beaten up with shyness, 
For what is going on within equates much more than meets the eye....

Her beauty’s words that speak her mind
So effortlessly they form on the lips
Exposing her being, her true soul and thoughts

Her eyes are as opals, so bright, so clear
Looking fondly to others, for beauty within
Seeing past what may be obvious, into the depths

Her essence is not...

what's more than the eye can see?
well, a few things come to mind
some are mumurously arcane
while others are easier to find

in the mind's aural conversations
down convoluted corridors of grey
are entertained our contemplations
of the thoughts we never quite say

in sonorous voices are enlightenment
those visions without any...

A face is more than a mere face,

Soft, elegant, majestic,

But sadness runs down and glosses it with magic,

A mere face is more than what is seen in this place,

A tangled, but strong mind covered in white lace,

But still it’s glorious, filled with peace not havoc,

From the moment you open your eyes in the morning to the moment you close them at night, may each second in between pass with joy and laughter. You are a wonderful human being, making the world a better place. So, I hope...

More to her there than meets the eye
    a hint of bare shoulder, a near-glimpse of thigh
  
  Her golden hair wrapped in a kerchief
    Tempting tongue flickers 'tween lips
  Her voice like a sweet nightingale

R-emember that the Lord God 
H-as cursed the wicked world; 
E-arly Saturday September ninth, 
A-round the ocean, the water whirled. 

U-nfurled waves of the sea 
M-ove with the violent wind; 
A-n earthquake strikes once more, 
Y-our questions never end. 
A-fter the great disaster, another tragedy...

“Dreams within dreams, what is real
Feel oh hermit, innate bliss appeal”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This
Here now
As it is
So intimate
Negate not this mind body, oh hermit

Yet we are not only the mind body
We are unbound
Luminous
Vibrant
Bliss
