Divine must meet whimsy before magic happens

Fall is coming soon

Leaves are falling down
Pumpkins will be ripening
Fall is coming now

Premium Member SHE WORE A CARAMEL COVERING-

She wore a caramel covering;
Her heart beats as a little one;
A jovial girl, lovingly cared for;
A mother's joy, a father's girl
Be that portion subject to trauma;
Yet still be a Holy Daughter;
A Daughter of a Holy God;
She is formidable:
She is a righteousness of a almighty God:
Selected Carmel Sister;
She wore a caramel covering which is her skin

Confident

 You will Never again cause me 
 doubt in believing 
  Admitting your emotions had 
 purpose and no meaning 
   Looking closer I understand 
  my running 
   Going forward and No hope 
  Believing 
   Amazing people you fake 
  care and destroy
   I pray barriers surround your 
  false words of friendship 
   I am Stronger thank you, 
  Your energy gone 
   Reward is inner truth and 
  more confident

Shadows Sharing Fruit

Shadows Sharing Fruit,

My reflection changes my world, 
When I move towards the light I see inside, 
Shining bright, 
Hiding in the shadows, 
My tree grows dense, 
My experience holds fruits, 
Soothing to the soul. 
You canlet go of control, 
Roll with the flow, 
Joy growing as you go, 
Casting a shadow, 
Sharing fruit with those below, 
And now that they know, 
New shoots start to show, 
As their world begins to grow, 
To the reflection, 
They're projecting, 
In this wonderful show.

Premium Member The Stumble and Rise

A girl with a giggle so grand,
Tripped on her own feet and landed.
She fell with a spin,
Then let the dance begin.
And twirled with the crown close at hand.

Premium Member Heart's Fondness Delights


Dance me slow...thrill me on moonlit flights  

Graced by warmth,    heart's fondness delights!

September 9th

(Voices of Galileo & Pythagoras)

On this day—
September 9th, 2025,
an echo rose from the ninth portal of the universe.

Galileo spoke:
"Mathematics is the language
with which God has written the universe."

The proof was everywhere—
the ninth month,
the ninth day,
the year 2025
folding into the number 9.

A trinity appeared:
999.
And when I added 9 + 9 + 9 = 27—
it fell again to 9.

A cycle completed.
A circle closed.

Galileo’s voice trembled:
"This happens once in nine years.
The world has finished one chapter—
and now, it begins another."

I asked—
“What does this cycle mean for humanity?”

He answered:
"Nine is compassion.
Nine is wisdom.
Nine is completion—
and awakening.
It calls the soul to service,
to live for the greater good."

Then Pythagoras appeared,
his face burning with sorrow and light:
"The world was in meditation—
now it awakens.
The true hearts of compassion
will rise for humanity’s sake."

We raised our eyes to the stars.
They shimmered as if lifting glasses with us.

And we whispered:
“September 9th, 2025—
the day of 999.
A cycle ends.
A cycle begins.
Cheers.

Chasing sunsets

Look at us catching the sunset together
With some light talk to get us going 
Nothing but nature and sheer tranquillity
And a nice glass of chardonnay

If you ask me what the occasion 
I'd say we're celebrating life
And we should do it more often 
Cause we don't get great sunsets like this

For we are always on the move 
At times when you're catching a sunset
I'm out there catching a breath
Cause my day is barely over and I can't get home 

That's why I'd want to take this moment all in
To enjoy that sweet fragrance 
'Cause the streets can be suffocating
And it's hard to go fast in a crowd 

At this moment tomorrow is a distant place
Yesterday is a messy place
Today is pacing by
But presently, memories are all I picture 

The PO£T

Take a piss

Oooh yeah, finally I get to piss 
I've been turned up all night
Trying to shake off this girl
And she couldn't leave me for a sec 

If it were up to her she'd have followed me here
Saying I might disappear on her like the others do
She almost took my drink for me
I told her I've got two hands, I can handle it 

I'm so uptight,it feels like I'm about to burst
And not exactly what I'd have wanted
It had made me have a long hard-on
And the ladies were blushing, thinking they'd done it 

I've been standing long here it just keeps going
It's like the gates were opened 
And damn am I relieved
Cause I don't think I could keep this in 

Lemmi just flick it one more time
And roll it back in nicely
Cause it's just past midnight 
I've got the whole night to rave on 

The PO£T

Block Party

Double-dutch ropes slap the sidewalk -
snap - snap - snap -
braids whip air,
girls jump in, counting
uno, dos, three,
feet flick like drumsticks.
The ice cream truck jingles off-key,
icy lady shakes paper cups,
piragua man shaves ice into snow -
his knife scraping the block awake.
Pastelillos pop in hot oil -
spit, sizzle -
plastic cups clink with rum and cola,
congas crack, maracas shake salt in the air,
horns blare like chisme in heat.
Heels click-clack over concrete -
punctuating each spin,
each swirl of hips.
Whistles split the air -
one from the lifeguard at Jefferson,
two from the men on the corner,
three from abuela
when the coals are hot.
Somebody throws meat on the grill -
ssszzzz -
smoke climbs windows,
neighbors bring foil trays -
yellow rice, ribs, roasted corn -
each dish a downbeat.
Kids yell cannonball,
water smacks back,
lifeguard’s whistle cuts through splash.
Old heads tap dominoes on tabletops -
crack, slap, smack -
hands older than the stoops they sit on.
The block fills itself
the way music fills a drum -
the street hums under bare feet.
Tonight,
the moon will smell like charcoal
and sweet ice.

Premium Member All That We Dream

(“The Longest Journey”, 2020, original encaustic)

All That We Dream

When George Harrison sang,
“Yesterday, today was tomorrow
And tomorrow, today will be yesterday”
He was making a simple observation
On the nature of Life as a flow
We attach our momentary labels of time.

But he could also have said this applies
To all of us simultaneously in the flow
While attaching those labels as if outside,
And that this simple shift in perspective 
Is the key to liberation, at least 
From the burdens of this Life’s stress and strains.

Each day we do things
And when they are done, tomorrow or the next,
We are not the same person who did them.
The beauty of this is the one planning
Is never the same as the one executing 
Nor the one enjoying the result.

So plan away, aim for the stars
Take that step, take the baton
On the endless journey
The endless stream of doing
As time and being flow together
Effortlessly accomplishing all that we dream.

(9/5/25)

China’s Parade of Victory

Truth is a dagger—painful,
yet healing when it cuts deep.
History does not lie:
the Imperial Japanese Army,
once a beast of discipline and fire,
marched on arrogance,
believing steel could bend the world.

But time betrayed them.
China, unarmed, hungry,
with no advanced weapons,
stood in defiance,
its discipline sharper than any blade.
And when the dust settled,
it was China, scarred yet unbroken,
who rose from the ashes of war.

Now, eighty years hence,
the drums resound again.
Parade of steel,
columns of might—
Putin watches, Kim nods,
and the world is forced to witness:
“The China of yesterday is no more.
The China of today rules the century.”

Is this victory,
or a warning written in banners of red?
The West whispers,
“If you cannot beat them, join them.”
But Japan, silent,
remembers the shadow of its past.

Nations bow not to friendship,
but to power.
And power, once attained,
rules the stage like an emperor.
So I ask—
when the dragon leads the march,
who dares to stand against its fire?
