Effusing Poems | Examples

Zen mode

noticing how flawed perception deludes
we glide in and out of the flow of life
embracing and releasing images 
mindfully enlivening all by touch
in an aspect of joyous playfulness 
effusing love through our radiant heart

Love

"One word frees us of all the weight and pain of life. The word is love.”
  ~ Sophocles, Greek Poet 


Love lotus within toroidal heart blooms,
effusing a blissful effervescence,
ignition that unendingly resumes,
revealing that light is soul’s quintessence,
which if we embrace, rapture within zooms
and we imbibe fragrance of truth’s essence.

The nectar of pure bliss flows through our veins
and bliss is the highest octave of love,
divine magnetism that cleanses soul’s stains,
provided head and heart act hand in glove,
free from pain inflicted by ego’s chains,
invoking God’s grace that pours from above.

God is love and light, dwelling in our heart ~
Each breath sees therein, bliss ignition start

Light of a thousand suns

Thousands of bliss bubbles vibrate in our head,
capping, as it were, our presence in a mist,
wherein then thus by divine magnetism led,
heart sings on being by Divine Mother kissed.
Nodes within form, independent yet entwined,
all sing love’s song, being with bliss beats aligned
and the rapture we feel, with joy we exclaim,
effusing love and light, as our claim to fame.

Light that lights all lights

Two pigeons feeding, sparrows alongside,
willingly share showing how love does pair,
for in all living forms, God dwells inside,
making each consciousness thus self-aware,
it costs nothing to lay soul bare and care.
Taking from this a cue, let us renew
pulsations of magnetism and love spew,
on one and all we meet, cheerfully greet,
our aura glistening like morning dew,
effusing pure love, borne by God’s bliss beat.

Believe it or not

Imagine a fine conduit looping form,
over front and back, splitting us in two,
within which bliss currents, both cool and warm,
in time stretched silence, pulsations renew.

This show of delight, by day and by night,
fixates our fickle attention within,
God’s grace gifting us the boon of clear sight,
even as bliss beats prance on our skin.

Poised at heaven’s gate, in stillness sedate,
essence of presence inhales love’s incense,
reshaping fate, as nodes within gyrate,
effusing joyously our effulgence.

Truth eternal is stranger than fiction,
of rapture borne by benign bliss friction.

Light of Self

Beholding our third eye pulsate,
right down to the tip of our nose,
feeling nodes within form gyrate,
we celebrate at heaven’s gate.

Tranquil heart in mindful repose,
delights witnessing how soul grows,
emerging from the cave of heart,
effusing fragrance of a rose.

With each breath renewal we start,
gentling thought flow, as a learnt art,
receptive to the touch of God,
hoping we never again part.

Within feeble mind-body pod,
on choosing to give love our nod,
we be to become, with God one;
luminescence that leaves us awed.

Summertime Is Fun Time

Pastimes in summertime linger longer.
For the warmth of the sun is much stronger,
Creating sheer moments of bliss that last
And become such an enjoyable blast.

I stroll bare-foot along the sandy shore,
Feeling the caress of waves I adore.
Kissing my feet with the incoming tide,
Effusing the rhythmic pulse of the seaside.

I hear the shrill call of seagulls that thrill,
In the bounteous fish that fill each bill
With the bounteous haul that summer brings
As the warmth spawns more of all living things.

In summertime the living is easy
And fun in the sun so easy-peasy.

Dance of Polarities

before our heart murmurs
emotes effusing tender love
effulgence of soul’s radiance
manifests in form seeds of bliss
as an expression of consciousness 
for eternity renewing its effervescence 
in a singularity wherefrom arises duality
within the vast womb of boundless space
that pulsations of love, always self referral
reflect back onto itself rapture of divine union
of itself within itself since there is no separation 

noticing the makings of the play of life underway
presence conspires with the universe in this game
that the beauteous dance of polarities in this realm
receptive to enigmatic currents of God’s magnetism 
create by benign bliss burns fullness within emptiness 
magically unfolding a plethora of love petals in our heart

Zen Mode

as inevitable, it came to pass
and so the question was asked
on whether we should abandon
feral soul we'd ourselves tasked
to spew toxicity that we may learn
to remain tranquil even as we burn

clever ego offering specious logic
hinting we need not trauma bond
why then keep a rear view mirror
but heart joyously does respond
effusing love, inane game end
egoic will to God's laws bend

Pisces

Playing joyfully, ambling blissfully
In, not within, pulse of life in motion
Soothing softly, healing mist suffusing
Compassion pouring, countenance comely
Emotion effusing bliss elation
Sowing seeds of love, serenely sprouting

The Mission

My blood
leaves its determination
on earth,
crimson footsteps
effusing 
on starched sleeves.
I'll have planted
a continent
of ebullient poppies,
celebrating existence
with no other mission
than expression,
however brief.

Beauty Is Evanescent

Beauty is evanescent

My eyes have seen 
unspeakable,
incomprehensible 
beauty.

I thought I knew 
what beauty was
and then...
I met you!

Your apparition
left me astonished
entranced, tongue tied,
mesmerized...

My eyes 
could never 
be the same again...
how could they be... 
as all the beauty 
beforehand seen
now had a new 
reference point... 
and that was you!

Curiously though,
under more 
careful observation
and scrutiny
over time
I noticed something
distinctive in you,
something inherently
significant.

I now realize
that my recently
redefined understanding 
of what beauty is,
needs to be adjusted
to harmonize with
a far deeper
comprehension.

I've noticed that
your external beauty
is really an outward
physical reflection
of internal realities.

Your kindness
your innocence 
is effervescent,
effusing and emanating
from deep within
your interior.

Leading me to conclude
that physical beauty
is evanescent
but kindness 
and innocence
is ever present.

Your Loveliness-Acrostic

Lost in the labyrinth of your loveliness

L ost in the labyrinth of your loveliness
O bscured obstacles can never obstruct my
V ision of your elegance and graciousness
E ffortlessly effusing and enlightening and 
L iberating my mind, inspiring my heart and soul
I ntuitively knowing and satiating my every desire
N eed and want, emancipating negativity and
E liminating all disillusioned and disquieting thoughts
S plendidly sophisticated in your stunning simplicity
S oftly and silently satisfying my spirit and soul.

Staring Into the Abyss

I have had good counsel from a wonderful therapist.
I had to be suicidal to get on her list.
I waited over a year to see her.
Only managed then because I became suicidal again.

At the start I said "Sure, I've nothing to say."
She nodded wisely, then led the way.
'Till shortly I was effusing about the pain I was withholding.
The poetry was flowing.
We were dancing and stomping.
The words were pouring.

The one thing she could not get me to do,
was express the anger I still have towards you.
Suggested wringing a cloth, or banging a pillow.
Shouting the hurts I suffered while with you.

But I'm not concerned as I've found a weapon.
It is of course Poetrysoup heaven.
Already it has trickled through to the pen.
What a poor example you are among men.

For now it's my counselor I wish to thank.
She has led me gently back from the brink...
of the abyss I was staring into.
From being meek as a lamb, sexless....voiceless.
I'm an emotional lioness, no longer joyless.

I've made her a book of my wee poems.
She thinks I should publish, as if I'm a pro.
Sure, I'm too modest for that...
Or am I?

STARING INTO THE ABYSS
 Edward Ibeh's contest.

The Only Place I Want To Be

I could be where the palm trees sway in a tropical breeze,
The pace is slow, the air is warm, and I can take my ease.
Drinking chilled coconut from the shell, a blue ocean view,
But, the only place I want to be, is right here with you.

I could be way up high, in a distant land, a Himalayan retreat,
Watching the sunset over Everest,  wood fireplace, effusing heat.
Relaxing in the whirlpool, the steam rises, as I sip a hot brew.
But, the only place I want to be, is right here with you.

I could be enthralled as Parana journeys to it's end, at the falls,
200 rivers, cascading in unison, as I meditate struck in awe.
I could be contemplating, the transcendent beauty of Iguazu,
But, the only place I want to be, is right here with you.

I could be in Sorrento, bay of Napoli, not far from Capri,
watching cruise ships floating by, observing life so carefree.
From the marina, I marvel at the houses built into cliffs,
I daydream of what it could be like, to live like this.

But, of all the places I could go, and the things that I could do,
The only place I want to be...is right here with you.
