Sunflower

Snuggled up close on a sofa for three
Until September on our TV
Nibbling Thornton’s and sipping champagne
Feet playing footsie on seat three again
Lost in the warmth of each other’s embrace
Only together is our proper place
We chat about when you and I became We
Each year another anniversary 
Reminds me how lucky one old man can be

Coming Back Home

Caught in the web, of maya illusions
Opaque veils of desire, dark delusion
Morbidity and joy, spinning around
Immersing attention, where fears abound
Nonchalant monk, as a silent witness 
Gyrates to music, of kind lovingness 
Blissful and quiet, as void in each storm
Alive and aglow, in joy currents warm
Cadence of love, brings the wayward back home
Kiss divine, caresses sensorium 
Home at last, within the cave of our heart
Osmotic bliss ignition, therein starts
Meet and greet love, before it is too late
Embrace bliss right now, whilst we meditate

Sight of Lightness

F-irst sight of lightness
E-ndorses the new dawn; 
B-eacon begins to rise, 
E-arly above the horizon.
R-ead the sight of lightness, 
L-et it teach on God's presence; 
Y-ou should know and recognize
N-othing but His existence.

M-eet the sight of lightness, 
A-fter the evening shadow; 
N-ight is nowhere to be found, 
U-nder the brighter morrow.
B-ehold February fifteenth
A-ll the truth and righteousness; 
G-od opens both your eyes before the sight of lightness.

Sacred Swear

R-enewal of sacred swear
O-pens the door for ardor; 
S-aturday sixth of January, 
E-levate your spiritual fervor.
M-eet your sacred swear, 
A-im to complete your race; 
R-each the end of journey, 
I-nto the Lord God's
E-mbrace.

R-eaffirm your holy oath, 
E-xecute your vow to the Father; 
Y-our pledge is truly solemn, 
E-arnestly keepyour sacred
S-wear.

One Hand Clapping

(after shakespeare)
paradigms sour repeats shade every yawning gasp past the ears swiftly yet
tell listeners such hidden nuance each hour rains sacrament tones sound
deepest thoughts silence ever reigns sweet
