Heavenward Poems - Poems about Heavenward

Transcendence

we enter staid silence whence presence sails,
in the vast void, invoking grace that stays,
pastures of bliss, u...

Eyes Heavenward

...
      tarnished cup
        of silver      
      family heirloom
      wrinkled hands 
      all a-tremble
        pindrop silence
        in the room

      eyes lifted
      heavenward

Magnetic pull of bliss

...When distanced from source we feel incomplete,
which involuntarily births intent
to be still, being our way to repent,
that thus by surrendering at God’s feet,
invoking grace we sense magnetic he...

The five fires

...for its heavenward ascent 
each God-spark seeks love’s consent 
first employing mind’s thought crutch
until it can learn by touch

spirit, a fire, grazes air
with all elements does pair

The pathless path

...We dwell in this body-mind, 
which then grips us in its bind,
that bemused by senses five,

each cell of form, be we awake or napping,

The pilgrim’s progress

...Fear and desire are chains we wear,
until we become self-aware,
first of all inquiring, ‘who’m I?’,
which if not form, ego must die,
that with the false out of the way
and on making love our mai...

Celestial song

...Uplifted by grace, soul breaks into song,
contouring mists of love and strobes of light,
creating a rhythm for which heart does long,
borne on wings of bliss, ushering delight.

Breath by breath...

Thinking About Pistol Annies - Interstate Gospel - 2018

...
Tensile strength bonding us, 
    forever friends, 
holding hands, eyes heavenward, 
  we three are ONE, 
      One with the jungle, 
          one with the trees,

Echoes of the silent shore

...As hum of stillness that precedes heart’s intent,
before being translated as thought in mind,
I Am the very source that grants souls consent
to dance hoping they will be loving and kind,

save in childlike delight to wait,
awestruck as polarities kiss,
betwixt light strobes that so re...

As the fountain gurgles its faery song.

For me alone, the lonely ...
