A breathtaking journey through the forest I am about to partake

enabling our shift into sleep,
enlivening dreams we recall,
except for state of slumber deep,
greeted at morn, with a bliss squall?

I Felt That Breath

I Felt That Breath
I’ve lived a life full of ups and downs
With happiness and sadness playing like a see-saw
But even during the times that the sun shined
And it seemed all was right in the world
I felt that breath

I’ve received love, even though I never returned it
But the warmth of that feeling is rare
However, during this

Premium MemberKnowing Nothing

My Math Teacher said:
I know how to teach you about 1
but can't guide you into comprehending None--0

A more sacredly co-arising binomial relationship,
less traveled bipartisan path
to know Zero rises positive toward full future
and suppresses negative
degenerating back
reversing toward empty non-numeric past.

In any not qualitative
and non-quantitative way
that would leave you
or anyone else
with a final co-binary qual-quantity
healthy quark space

Enlighten Me

I am the light,  like the stars at midnight.
I am the sun, that shines ever so bright.
I am light bulb that lightens any room.
I am a lotus in full bloom.

Do you know of a lotus? Full of mystery?
Birthed from water, mud, dirt.....
Has to first survive wildlife to bloom.
I'm that flower finally in full bloom.
Survived

The Garden

My heart is like a garden.
For in here there is life,
And the sweet smell of pardon.
That sets me free from strife.
The Lord knoweth the days of the upright:
and their inheritance shall be forever.
A candle that gives light,
Buring in the heart like a fire.
Claiming the sweet drops of rain
Showers of blessing
In, the middle of my pain
All

Premium MemberBrilliant Light


Penetrating rays of vibrant sunshine
Pierce through the darkness
Night’s black cruelty, ruthless
Angst assuring the shadows
Of dismal confusion, hysteria
A phrenzy of muddy discouragement

The sun winks through snowy clouds
Breaking across the azure scene
Fulfilling the yearning for a whisper
Of serenity caressing the spirit
Coloring the heart in hues of compassion
Musical cords of soft inspiration soothing

With this brilliant light, the sun

Feelings warming when there are chills

Beautiful Eyes

You have such beautiful eyes. 
The kind that makes the stars 
To shine with their devices.

They silently send me delirious.  
When they conjure up such fantasies. 
I drift along with them into haunting bliss.

When the phantasmic prepares my mind.
With images to mesmerized. 
Within the trance, a world is refined. 

Stirring with beauty in your

The Countdown

Ambition thinks it has plenty of time.
Effects proving a rapturous countdown.
With a certain kind of secret weapon.
Nations avoided the truth they found.

Where hopes and dreams are intertwined.
Faith believes this will make us strong.
When virtual reality intrigues the mind.
We can be forgiven if we got it wrong.

Recognize out of the multitude we see.
Some familiar faces are

Love Note

You left early without a goodbye
I miss the sweet missives 
Those feelings tried to deny
My heart perfect way to express.

Love note every day enlightens the way
Whether springtime or summer mild.
They climb inside to live timelessly,
Absorb my mind like a newborn child.

When moments go to be silence
The unavoidable changes surprises,
Emotions do not remain in peace
sleeping off
