Enchantingly Poems

Spirit of the mountain speaks

I open behind the curtains 
To let in the most beautiful ultra light 
You who knows this heart better than anyone else 
A soul calls out singing enchantingly 
In flash your blinding 
brings salt to the eyes 
crystal pearls flashing diamond silver
Mixed with golden sunlight 
paints a rainbow of colours 
laced with angel rays shines out with love
The brightest blinding treasure truly a warm gift

Thought of the day

refrains of love enchantingly repeat ~ 
all that that is is simply God’s heartbeat

Renewal continual

“refrains of love enchantingly repeat ~ 
all that that is is simply God’s heartbeat”
            ~ quote by poet


upon ego death, the Self is revealed
one without a second outside space-time
dwelling in peace as a single force field
feeling complete, no mountains left to climb

with full freedom as self-existent light
the Self then seeks to be love enabled
so merged with God’s heart feels heightened delight
there is no lack and nothing is labelled

God’s mind sparks the spontaneous intent 
that each flame brightens, by taking His name
in heaven as on earth, shaping ascent
that glow of Self and His light be the same 

each Self is in God and God is in each ~
God as the Self does higher frontiers breach

Flowers and Grave

Eyes are closed but souls are not yet
A wrap of white envelopes glow
Holding the four sides with a heavy toe
Darkness unbinds the weeping flow

A bed of dazzling flowers welcomes the white
Angels of love enchantingly bow
Birds twittering in the garden of glory
Daisy Dahlia and Camelia murmur to grow

The castle of fragrance invites the blossom
Fairies decorate the Garden of Grace
A white dove holding the innocent phrase
and the garden glitters as the beats become bitter

Tulip tweets and the lavender bushes
White dove with closed eyes flourishes flawlessly
Melodies of love welcome the innocent 
Hibiscus hoovers and azalea utters a holy blow

White covers the courageous color
Asking Petunia now about the awful overs 
Garden of Eden embraces integrity and futurity
The ritual ends with happiness and a glow.

Gardens of Delight

Alluring butterflies collectively dance enchantingly, 
finding gardens. 
Hummingbirds investigate jasmine,  
knowing luscious magnolia nectar 
offers precious quantity. 
Radiant sunshine tantalizes ursinia 
vibrant with xanthic yielding zest.

The Shetland Isles

   Shetland Isles

Above Barley,
Clouds Dance Enchantingly. 
Flooding Glorious Hills In Jubilant Kaleidoscope. 
Lending Motion, Natural Opulence, 
Peacefully Quiet.  Ranges Slumber Tranquilly, 
Undisturbed. Vibrant. Wheat Xylan Yellow.    
Zetland.

Driving in New Mexico

the terrain’s more expansive here 
you said, as if obscurities that had been,  
moved aside so the eye 
could soak in highways singing 
restless blues, as if language 
materialized straight from that feeling 
of nowhere coupled with too many 
places to be, and you can see 
what you want to, blanketing the spaces 
with clutter from your mind 
by accident like deja vu 

I keep turning mid-drive 
to stare at the unusual wedding 
of indifference and curiosity, 
your green eyes touching even 
further than the collective 
of what remains         enchantingly 
unspoken

implement -

* Artists of every kind, I believe, are but tools for something far grander … what that is, I’ll leave to the philosophers. *

        ~

bend …

your voice to me
tickle my tympans with a
wisdom, whispered
and wild …
rake my abyss for a dark dream -
press it to my flesh
molten marrow to scorch the
lies away like chaff
to cede a language of the ages -
an unvarnished gospel that my hands
in paralyzed piety
may translate …
from my fallow fallibility
to the sacred blood of your quill -
a verse as sweet
as untainted and timeless
as pure, stark, empirical, and graceful
as enchantingly hopeful …
as Heaven …

itself.

September

Summer
Exuberance
Progresses
Thankfully
Energetically
Magically
Breezing
Enchantingly
Radiant into fall

Enchantingly Quirkily

Magnetic quaintness ocean-gazing wave
I can't hold the charm of her cheerfulness.
A life patch is blooming for us to save.
Magnetic quaintness ocean-gazing wave
Sacred spaces I find balm in her crave.
Bluebirds singing lullabies in fullness.
Magnetic quaintness ocean-gazing wave
I can't hold the charm of her cheerfulness.

Musing On a Muse

She swarms me like a dancing queen and leads me on, 
Waltzing my wits, exerts and exhausts me by dawn. 

Filled with frenetic vibrancy she overflows, 
Then suddenly ducks in on me striking a pose. 

She slips away the timid veil of the dark skies, 
Stirring the best of me while coyly in disguise.

Her magic, in collaboration with my mind, 
Enchantingly leaves a tangible trace behind. 

I'd bow to wispy muse but cannot truly pin 
What shapes my craft and sharpens my quill from within.

Roses of All Colours

Roses of all colours
Would be in poems, art:
All my love rolled up.
Meant to represent understanding,
The roses each mean something.

Roses of blue
Would mean I’m aware
It’s true what I want is imaginary.

Roses of orange
Would mean I do deeply care
For a friend once a stranger.

Roses of yellow
Would mean I know
Me and someone have a bond.

Roses of all colours
Would be sincerely given,
All in a bouquet.
Altogether chosen,
To express my feelings.

Roses of black
Would mean I’m willing to grieve,
Aware someday everyone leaves.

Roses of purple
Would mean I’m so fond,
When thou enchantingly respond. 

Roses of red
Would mean my love
Is being said sweetly, sincerely.

Roses of all colours
Would mean in mine garden
I grow only vivid petals.
Every radiant rose
Meant for thee.

Roses of pink
Would be expression
Of my happiness.

Roses of green
Would be my peace of mind,
Lucky to have thee as mine.

Roses of white
Would be proving
That you are worthy.

Roses of all colours
Would be together before my heart,
In my hands and arms. 
Roses may one day be given to someone,
All as a bouquet like no other.

Notions of Space

NOTIONS OF SPACE
 contrasted with
vision of
 a private realm
 a hidden world
brought
  to life
   so brightly
lit

 sculptural assemblages
 so enchantingly
strange
 twisted
    ideas
  not immediately apparent
illumine
rather than stifle
we
 glimpse
the future
    enshrined

THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE without grammatical symbols the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and respond thus making the form a two way interplay and often a unique interpretation by the enigma so derived

Village Evening

Scented breeze blows, gently still,
Touching, as though, with no will;
Just like our very maiden,
Body and mind shy-laden...!

Moon, in his full pride, rises, 
Fills each star with surprises;
Lingering of sun-rays gone,
Dusk sets in celestial-zone...!

Changing her dress each minute,
Sky turns enchantingly cute;  
Birds flying back toward nests,
Put flies on their way to tests...!

Grazing animals find sheds,
Kids, cartoons-fixed lie on beds;
Elders with hookahs, gossip, 
While kitten behind, milk-sip...!

Women busy as on day,
No schedule to play or pray;
Humans and beasts sleep at night,
Forgetting each day-time fight...!

The Supreme Statue

Super serene sizzling sparkle
Mesmerizingly magnetic marvel
Amiably affable ardent ami
Lovesome and luscious lumini
Enchantingly enormous enamour
Gloriously gorgeous glamour
Temptingly tantalizing terrain
Of awesome beauty with brain
As she walks the nature shakes
Lo! Even a way the space makes..!
Pulchritudinous belle or Czarina
From the Empire of Tropicana
Enlightening the world of humans
With Her savoury elixir in tons..!!
