Cease Poems

Cease

Cease

Nothing lasts  forever
Good and evil conclude
Pain and joy resolve
And life has expiration
Careful not to soar or plunder
All things end

The mind and wing

A small bug walks just like a thief,
It does not know pain, it does not know grief.
It does not ask, “Why am I here?”
It lives its life without a fear.

The bug runs when the light is strong,
But it forgets—it moves alone.
It does not think of life or death,
It only feels the light, the breath.

But I

Blessed Be The Peacemakers
(A prayer to mark this eventful day)

Blessed be the peacemakers
Who change violence into lasting peace
May they become as one team of partakers           
and may the deadly fire at long last cease

May God give you strength to bear the worldly burdens

Premium MemberLove Will Never Cease!


A garden of love, awake as the rain, peaceful as the gray skies, abiding inside the soul who can see… there is a love that grows strong despite the fears that linger on, despite the tears who seem to water the heart with a hope that sings on and on… by poet

Whistling in the wind,

Premium MemberWONDERS CEASE-

Gonna wash mi feett;
Cause they sure do smell;
As I wash my teeth;
My mouth is all is well;

When I’m a sleep;
Sweet dreams I deem;
Won’t be abandon as it seems;
This here nightmare it ain’t real;
I continue to sow, what I reap;
I know longer have smelly feet;
I’m on the right track, I don’t creep;
Once a lost soul, now

Will wonders never cease!?

Will wonders never cease!?

Alternately titled: Last of the fluff
belonging to a Mohican
Norwegian bachelor farmer wannabe.

Any resemblance between said unnamed individual
and living persons purely coincidental.

Scads of decades back in the day,
not since this sexagenarian baby boomer
happened to be approximately
three and a half decades deep,
into his freshman year at college,
the word haircut
just re:entered his vocabulary
at the expense

Premium MemberYou Must Never Cease to Be Whimsical and Free

You Must Never Cease to Be Whimsical and Free
You must never cease to be whimsical and free,
For in the flight of your dreams lies the sublime colors of the sky.
Do not let the burden of your life weigh on someone else's shoulders,
For you are the sculptor of your destiny, let your name resound.
Through the shadowed

Premium MemberWhen Emotions Cease

  Intimate, but only so cozy
    passionate, but just to a point
  What once seemed rosy
    forever disappoints… 

  When kisses no longer breathe
    and emotions cease to seethe
  What remains to recover
    ‘cept the flotsam in the gutter

PLEA FOR PEACE

Beasts! Killers!
Soulless beings, devoid of empathy,
Ruthless in your actions,
Inflicting pain without remorse.

What sins have the innocent committed?
Caught in the crossfire of your wars,
Agents of destruction,
Where is your humanity?

You, architects of suffering,
Where is the dialogue,
In your resort to violence,
Claiming innocent lives?

Do you sleep soundly,
Knowing the devastation you wreak,
Children orphaned, hospitals bombed,
What darkness lurks in your mind?

You

Cease and Desist

Your hoped for an aural jump
from commencement letters abroad
Your idealised viewpoint of the West
minus the 2.4 children,
and your multilingual approach
even German for extra flourish
inches in Deutschland for cumulative security,
I'm not interested in a Trans Asiatic Plains romance
Im a confirmed Bachelor
of 42 years standing,
I don't know how you got my email
But cease and desist
better concentrate on

Premium MemberIf We But Cease To Cling

If we but cease to cling
to that that comes and goes,
simply by being still,
all’s enabled if we
surrender egoic will.

If we but cease to cling
to thought forms that appear,
we offer no anchor
to any narrowness
and are free from rancour.

If we but cease to cling
to this decaying form,
which though shaped from earth’s crust,
is being breathed by God,
we see

Premium MemberCease To React

Cease to react through highs and lows
After all, life’s a dream
We go wherever love mist blows 
Watching bliss bubbles stream

Sans thought, our ego dies
Soul then soars to new highs
Blissful, vibrant and wise

Our love drenched pact
Cease to react
