Like echo attenuation the song plays on...
The flesh shall wither, but, the spirit shall live on..
A vessel burning bright soaring free in flight
To dwell in the Holy kingdom of infinite light...
For now we wait until that chosen day,
when all we have collected and all we've paid
Is presented before God upon his heavenly throne
In mercy and strength for all atoned
Glimmers and glimpses in our mind we retrace
Every word we have spoken and every act we've displayed
Awaiting that moment of God's Holy fire
To take us beyond the dark black mire
To dwell in spirit with wings to soar
Endless and forever to dwell with our Lord...
I sit in a dungeon
of dusty manuscripts-
(so little light, so much knowledge)
and I have turned to review
the years spent in hellish waiting-
pondering my reluctance to escape
needing desperately to leap beyond
the pseudo-boundaries placed here
by my own psyche
Fear?
You walk between the shadows-
the finite/material and the
infinite/spirit (ual)
often, mediocre days of enduring
and isolation
but-
the plastic smile works well,
fools many- even you?
Sometimes...
Diving deep, into the void, within
Washing, cleansing, myself clean
Trusting without expectation
Letting go of, what I am familiar with
Allowing the divine, infinite spirit to guide me
Teaching me how to live
Growing inside my heart and mind
Larger than my mind’s ego
As I consciously shed light, upon my self created burdens
Lighting up, my made up fears, my mind has believed, all these years
All the mistakes I have made, now become my greatest blessings
Showing me how to love, without attachment
Discovering, who I truly am
hallowed be the lady
who captures the heart of a man
with the splendor in her eyes.
like the view of the glorious world
who gives birth to us her children
and keep us abundantly alive.
like the bright sun that brilliantly shine
up in the sky who gives us energy
let us grow strong and helpful.
like the luster in the moon's smile
that keeps our world balanced
keeps us a golden infinite spirit.
like a faith so untouchable mysterious
let our mind believe unconditionally
before the unknown mysteries of mankind.
like my heart that beats a trillion times
keeping me fight the night of consuming death
let your eyes be the fuel to go on.
before the splendid eyes
the coveted part of thousand woman in my life
the envy of all ladies before this shattered sight
behold my precious treasured moments with you.
like your air before my soul
let me live in your dreams,
the only place I want to ride
as long as he keeps me breathing;
breathing in- loved inside your heart.
Trinity is our niece she is roughly 19 months-so cute and precious!
True heart, temper
Real blonde curls, rare beauty
Infinite spirit, gift of God
New life, renewed
Is a joy to our family
Tiny little hands, hold big dreams
Youth is on your side
what tales lie behind wrinkled eyes
sagging corners tired
with life
what dance has
the crooked back danced
angled with experience
blissful and dark
many leathered hands stroked
hair wiry gray
aged by this journey
scratchy laughter remains
of this wrinkled tangible existence
yet the infinite spirit
imprints burden of proof
in the shiny new succession
of childrens giggles
what tales lie behind wrinkled eyes
sagging corners tired
with life
what dance has
the crooked back danced
angled with experience
blissful and dark
many leathered hands stroked
hair wiry gray
aged by this journey
scratchy laughter remains
of this wrinkled tangible existence
yet the infinite spirit
imprints burden of proof
in the shiny new succession
of childrens giggles
