The Weary Wayfarer
Whencesoever it comes, thence whithersoever it goes
This never-ending road, Oh, why no one seems to care or know?
So, I pitch my camp by the road-side and quietly repose!

briny remnants heart doth troll

Merge mind and heart with style that moves;
Yield action plans that soul can live.
Service now starts to fill fine grooves;
Observe the trends that value gives;
Use purpose bold to work passion;
Love what you do with focus clear.
Wisdom unfolds in sure fashion;
Align and woo the path of...

Wayfarer By the Moon
Walking by the moon,
Adventurous traveller
Passed by and went to fly high.
Leaving past behind;
Leaving silent, lonely roads.
Nothing more left than moonlight...

Umbras going by
Towards the moon's shining light
Until specters wane.
Lambent night orb receives shades,
Souls transcend to refulgence...

Dusky fluorescence
And phosphorescent visions
Of solemn apparitions
Vanish into sparks
Of the luminous night...

A peaceful path some may call a rough road,
In succulent scents--they feel a forebode.
Me--I'm only a drowsy dreamer
pitching pebbles at all troubling times.
Searching skies for lovely rainbows,
climbing clouds above mountaintops.
A wistful wayfarer finding my way
          ...

Premium Member Do Not Fall In Love With a Wayfarer
wayfarers do not have picnics with people.
travelers, journeyers, vagabonds, are wanderers.
they prefer nature to humans, and they keep moving.
do not try to enslave, entrap, slow down or capture one.

wayfarers come in a variety of shapes, boot sizes and heights.
they are usually taller than the norm,...

Premium Member The Wayfarer Creed
To what zenith do our chimeras whither?
As we travel across discombobulated shores?
Do we strive to collocate together?
Or breed discord and close the doors?

The wayfarer creed is to induce wherry,
With our aphonic travelers on this path.
To share in the arcane and not be wary,
And crestfallen behind...

There begins here in timeless now:
Love steers good cheer... being endows!

There is a tale that conceals truth;
Beyond this veil, ample with proof.

There is a void clearer than most:
A nameless void that transcends boast.

There is feeling where no words touch;
No explaining can cover much!

There is a...

The Wayfarer and the Thirteen Kingdoms Part 1
All the stars and their kingdoms use Christ’s name in error 
Muttering to themselves “Who is this quiet torchbearer?” 
“Where did he come from; what place birthed this wise wayfarer?”
“How did this soul come here? Why did he come, this cross bearer?” 
The dancing stars...

Meet each day well,
Yield to the light;
See that soul dwells,
Taste fond insight;
Intuit and know,
Calm that lives deep.
Wear truth that shows,
Ask for brave leaps;
Yes paves the way,
Feel how joy yields;
Apply fine say,
Reach for a field;
Embrace and sing,
Roads that life brings.

I am here now in space and time
As life endows my simple rhymes.


Am I a soul, a wayfarer
Seeking the whole? Still no wiser!


I sense stirrings... faint melodies
That seek clearing if I but see.


I look within my intentions
To thoughts unseen... prior commotions.


I am a man —...

The Wayfarer and the Thirteen Kingdoms Part 3
The thirteenth kingdom says that he is the word so great    
Born from the king of kings, who gave his dear son a mandate 
To enter the world the word formed as it is his fate 
The word received glory before he...

A Weary Wayfarer
“Life’s a long day’s journey into night.” – by poet.

It’s been a long road and I am tired,
I tried to go back where it all began
but my soul got lost along the way.

I live in a world of death,
All the ones I’ve loved are now...

Cheer channels clear such soothing sighs,
Opt precious play to gather more;
Soft succinct seer hurls healthy highs,
Meek moments may spawn profound spores;
Intuit bold quest where love moves joy,
Charm wears a style that honours quest.
Watch for the best to conjure ploy,
Apt poignant smiles dance with sure fest;
Yes...
