Best Nearer Poems

The hour matters none ... for the energies have exhausted.
In the year of our Lord ... nineteen hundred and twelve, April fifteenth.
Writes a future living star ... wish their joys so he may shine.

'Tis to be a deliberate endeavor ... they call life.
An unaccountable ledger...

Bring the sky nearer to me
give me back the childhood days,
so near to me that I can see
a rainbow's kiss with sunrays!


Give me back the childhood days
those wonder eyes to see in sky,
a rainbow's kiss with sunrays
butterfly dreams free to fly!


Those wonder eyes to see...

Nearer My God (The Band Played On)

"Nearer, My God, to Thee"  played on. . . 
calmly played by eight who stood upon
A sinking deck. That fearless band
Just played at nobody’s command
As if in strange oblivion!

Surely some serenity was drawn 
That night by all those...

I was nearer to Heaven then
As I trespassed cloud and sky--
And I will travel there again,
When next I chance to fly.
How grand the heady heights achieved,
To Heaven, near or far--
Of greatness I no more deceived,
For how very small we are!...

We used to live next 
to a respite, set nearer the sky. 
My mother told me 

they who pass through spent 
days or nights there, sometimes months; 
it was necessary 

to not see their troubles.  
Winters froze the edges, suns 
sank, and rose, ...

Angels are apart
not a part of us
Before our time
Outside auric space
The energy in form
creates a pleasant face
to ease us
please us
Saying they are sent by God
Moses
Allah
Krishna
Jesus
The Serpent god
still resides within
Wrapping itself around original sin
keeps us looping life
in a restrictive spin
until we untangle from the matrix
that locks...

The nearer  peace,more savage are the acts
Abhorrent to the atheist in us all.
History, undigested ,splits and cracks

As we whites  did evil to the black
With little difference, hate  for glory calls.
The nearer  peace, the more savage the acts

All of us can ...

Sunday a day for church and prayer
May be to busy, might not be there
He's out and about doing his thing
No time for rhetoric, weeping, wailing

While your inside selling your guilt
He's out there surveying the world that he built
The colours he painted and wishes he granted
The...

nearer every might

nearer our longing lives

nearer flawless light

late last night in dreams
I roamed to magical lands
blooms were tall as trees

nearer to warm sun
in rapturous days of gold
giant blooms blushed scents

mauve night rosy dawn
the love affair never ends
peach plum cherry skies...

Nearer To God Remained

While away all of the time had waned
Things exist that are hard to be explained
Bothersome behavior having no beat
And only thing will do is self-defeat
Nearer to God I have always remained.

When dark election clouds gather at the horizon
The heart trembles and jumps into the mouth
And the spirit crawls and hides in sun’s shadows
The poor soul starts humming; ‘Nearer my God to Thee!’

As my spirit ascends in the sky like a hunting eagle
And hyenas haul in...

I’m in your life
for a reason,
though just for
a brief season.

You all ease
by me everyday,
breeze through me
then slip away.
Avoid my glance,
never even stay.

Hurrying by me quickly down this
street in retreat.

I’m in your life
for a reason,
though just for
a brief season.

Forgetting to share
our lovely gift,
by hurrying by
our hearts...

It's now or never,
for now is the time,
to write all your thoughts down
in word perfect rhyme.

In rhythm is beauty
as words all unfold,
to share all the stories 
that you've never told.

No matter wherever,
with whom, or just when,
let all of your memories 
bleed from your pen.

For someone...
