Best Unfoldment Poems
The Story of HistoryThe Story of History
Beyond those beaten days’ depleted daylight
Beyond the bathos of a pandemic bondage
With the resurrected sashay’s charmed night
Down in the dumps at the pretentious proscenium
A shy orchestration sans bark and bite
Afloat in the...

FireworksFIREWORKS
The initial joy
Of a firework
Is not in the sparkle shower
But at the exact moment of BURST!
Something in one’s very bones
Recalls creation
Life proclaiming self
A coming out of the gigantic
And won’t unfoldment be beautiful

The Great ParadoxThe great paradox,
A mighty creative star-burst,
A once unified power,
Dynamically out-sourcing in a display,
Of awesome light and heat,
Of gravitational attraction and boyant levity,
The genesis of life as we know it,
And how it weaves through our days,
And whispers into our night journeys,
A wonderburst of unknown origins,
From which...

The FrontierIt is as if I strangely sit between unfoldment and the
pit turn the heart and bend the lip of ageless silent
sun and trees of passing pageants aimed to please
the garish and the blinded throng from heaven sent in
hellish garb of bodies blown from end to...

Ashtavakra Gita Verses 15:4 To 15:5

You do not have a body
You neither do nor enjoy
You are Awareness only--the timeless Witness
You are free
Go in happiness”
15.5
“Attachment and aversion
are attributes of the mind
You are not the mind
You are Consciousness itself--
changeless, undivided, free
Go in happiness”
The verse is simple but...

The InexpressibleTHE INEXPRESSIBLE…
Vocabulary passes into oblivious dissolution,
And embankment of expression
Awaits the fragile knocks of fear,
Wholeness circumscribed the lonely emptiness
And the subdued self desires to draw
The figure of its universe
In the shrinking shell of consciousness.
Self’s unceasing preparedness
To stretch the arms of tiring limits
Into...

The Beauty of Dying FlowersDo, at night, flowers dream of their death?
The thought, admittedly is a poetic one,
but I find that absurdity,
is often a step ahead of knowledge.
I, being less self-absorbed than the frailest weed,
never dream of death, for death dreams of me,
it crawls into bed with me,
and enters...

Zen Modepromises and prophesies
are in timeless time fulfilled
in as they take time to manifest
after being created in the ethereal
all that that has been set into motion
is beheld by us in childlike surprise
although eye of wisdom knows
the manner of unfoldment

The Joy Continuum
awareness self aware
of dark veils of ignorance
shrouding our consciousness
rotates polarity of sentience
to view inner luminescence
the offered enablement
seen by periscope vision
is then scrutinised by ego
by jaundiced perception
in dimmed colouration
once baton of awareness
shifts into the void internal
we must rest our lower...

Vibrant AlonenessVibrant aloneness
Embracing tranquil peace
In a time stretched continuum
Vibrant silence gets a new name
As nodes within throb with joy
Enlivened by bliss currents
Presence accords no preference
To the manner of unfoldment
Being but a receptor
Of divine grace that in-pours
Assimilated by our receptive heart

The Beauty of Dying FlowersEvery becoming part of a flower
is a meditation by rote.
From seed to lovely bloom
a processional unfoldment.
When the bloom wilts
beauty unveils,
the flower sleeps
as if day were night
and all was ever
but a dream....

Seeds of Greatness
Magical, mysterious, completely incomprehensible!
Is there anything more divine than a seed,
Any seed, large or small, any size at all?
Infused within its compact evolving time capsule
Is written all the instructions for the development
Of every form of life: human, animal, plant.
Every line of DNA...

Dramatic Monologue
Bamboo Moon and Divine ShineDivine spirituality oozes into atmosphere
Your unfoldment is a matter of time
By Divine’s grace, in cosmos timing, not ours.
Trust in the divine, surrender in the perfection
Underpinning of ethereal preparation
Allowing full appreciation to flow into the veins of self
Letting go of ego, leaning on your...

Selfless LoveBy Your grace
I have life immortal;
the seed of you, called Man,
who buds and blossoms,
breathes in and out
(respiration of creation)
each new journey one
of ever greater unfoldment--
I have infinite petals
colors and scents; the
enchantment of universes,
allowing me to express both
virtues and flaws--for there is
no perfection when it...

Surprise MeWho’s to say
Route of pathway
For each bliss hue
Fresh & new
Every unfoldment
Pristine & innocent
Spontaneity
Of Ohm continuity
A divine caress
As lovers confess
Burning yearning
For connecting
Who’s to predict
In finality succinct
Path of the breeze
Flowing in ease
Twinkle in the eye
As we do sigh
With ecstatic rapture
Mind cannot capture...
