Best Numen Poems

i wander these winter beaches 
where autumn's storms
have removed the footfalls of summer
believing in spring

here i am alone listening
to the waves mellifluously remind
yet never recalling
floating the river Lethe
alone where the frigates soar above
pelicans traversing the waves
the terns work the receding water
i am the intruder

waves erasing...

it is was on my morning stroll 
i first noticed that common
white house dress, pearl buttons
busy in her garden
sauntering on, a most common sight
on subsequent passings 
my evaluations were she was
not of any particular beauty 
yet, there was a numen
behind that simple picket fence
one that...

For You my love's unwavering
     and ample to inspire;
its passion for You burns red-hot
     like a blazing bonfire.

All the year long my thoughts o'er You
     captivate and free me;
they form wing-like to my...

Soft skies of blue and ivory
Circling the planet of light and ebony

Colored eyes enthralled by the cold of the night
Waving lightning mantled by fright

Winds embracing acquiescent bodies so bleak
Unshielded pillars of the strong, not weak

Grounds bracing the faithful with might
Bounds of serenity awaits so light

From...

Oh, Holy Spirit such joy in thy numen name,
Amidst a plentiful paraclete of a burning flame…
Stormy skies subdue as you enter with a tame,
Dropping pearls from heaven an almighty acclaim.

White Doves follow your peaceful playful presence,
Cozy comfort in your propelling passionate presents…
Within eyes captivated by...

With Fur that is white and cold to the touch,
Never had i gazed upon beauty of such.
Eyes that glowed a bright golden hue,
As soon as i saw, i had found her i knew.
Her tail was long and thick by sight,
But dance it did against the...

In the dawn-like haze—a shriek was heard,
An echo so shrewd, yet birdless, oddly slurred 
It was ordained by—a stratum unseen,
A throbbing coerce, a numen so keen. 

A canticle flower—a bellow coarsely flung,
Through bosky drifts, those shadows clung.
The broken clavicle, brittle skull,
Doused in...

The human antonym 

Buddhist, but maleficent 
Losing,but triumphant
Home, but astray
Articulate, but nothing to say

Achieving,but no ambition 
Trusting, but full of suspicion 
Cold hearted, but devoted 
Political, but never voted 

Lazy, but overworked
Level headed, but berserk
Lacks talent, but a numen 
All of the above- a human...

a feather found
a gift not boxed,  not wrapped
not double-bow bound
a gift imagined floating
falling leaf-like to the ground 
halved by disappearing stem
tapered grey-white, grey-white line
one side an emerald satin shining stem
green paint over black artistically spread
a half with finest soft silk white hem
etched in grey...

Imagination's ingenuity
ushered forth from minds acuity
creations utility which flows fluidly
unhampered by ungracious cruelty

A worm of earth produces role
lower organism such as mole
without the tree provideth air
do we as human dare to care

Nature provides for all on earth
our mutual response to each in worth
despondant are those...

At water’s edge, this rocky chasm shore.
I am Belisama, numen of lakes and rivers,
or sometimes Brigit of mystic phasm lore.  
I am the brightest one, the fiery one who delivers.
To the Romans I am Minerva of wisdom and poetry.
The Christians rebrand me Saint Brigit...

Note to self: In observation where there seems to be nothing there, there is 
always air.  Even without matter there is something for instance light waves.

The spirit of the Divine in me seeks the Ataraxian mode of living  
Although I long for air...

We are the story tellers,
Once of nature loving best.
River and mountain lake and forest
Teaming life of air or land.
We loved the wolf, big hearted proud
The stubborn boar reclusive bear.
Each with spirit man endowed them
To tell of knowing natures worth.
Shaman natures laws need master
Herb law, river,...

A dream day in the heaven, 
All know we are interest driven. 
A rare occasion to happen, 
All desires would heighten. 
A ray of hope makes the paths lighten, 
All preoccupied darkness would restrain. 
A divine touch from the numen, 
All the fruits of righteousness...
