Thief of Joy Steals The Day

comparison steals
the laughter from tomorrow -
shadow's reprimand
strangles joy of tender blooms
by coveting other fields

the spark of the self
wanes beside a brighter flame
lit in other hearths
creativity withers,
its bold wings torn by envy

what dawn promised
fades in light of noonday sun
inception undone
let what has started become
before the light of day stuns

self-worth is kindled
when the gaze is faced inwards
not

Naive Faith

In the still of dawn, tears fall, heartbroken
Sorrows murmur of the past’s distant dread
Words won’t come and the fear goes unspoken
As my soul seeks, unsure of what’s ahead
My mind wanders to light I can soak in
Knowing my soul will read those things unsaid
Singing grace through the night’s quiet shadows
And tears play in the verses I

Sutra 5 from The Holy Science

“The Omniscient Love aspect of Parambrahma is Kutastha Chaitanya. The individual Self, being Its manifestation, is one with It.”
~ extract from ‘The Holy Science’


Immersed in this density, soul’s light veiled,
to be love enabled is our life’s goal,
so once elixir of bliss is inhaled,
we reclaim brilliance wayward ego stole,
fulfilling here in earth, our ordained role.

What Matters

When they ask: the answer is, I want to be cremated 
Smoke the man from yesterday that occasionally crumbles into tomorrow
Let the wind carry the residue of inspiration until it ashes back to God
Then spread my ashes in any of the places unchecked on my bucket list 
Don’t keep any of my un-swept broom dust

A Honeylike Horizon In The Air

This is a new golden horizon
This is a heavenlike season
Where everything is beautiful
And a serpentine rainbow looks wonderful
In the sky, in the heaven, in the air
Look! Countless birds are diving in the atmosphere.

This is a brand new season
This is a honeylike horizon
I wonder if this is a new spring
A new style to speak and to

Effervescence

Effervescence

There’s a cartoon I once adored,
Its colours danced, my young heart soared.
The screen would sing, the voices ring.
And joy was such a simple thing.

But years slipped past, the hues grew dim,
The songs grew faint, like an old hymn.
I packed it away with my forgotten toys,
Forgetting the spark of those innocent joys.

And then one day—it caught

All Of The Little Things Our Little Brains Choose To Remember For A Short Little While

Isn’t it odd?
All of the little things
that remain in our
little brains?

One day, you’ll
be walking down the
street, just minding your
own business, when suddenly
you’ll stop.

A sight,
A sound,
A scent,
A memory,

Something you have
never seen, heard, smelt,
or even experienced before
will catch your incomplete attention
so completely.

And send you to
the most magical of
places.

Something from your
childhood,

Something from the
small town you drove through
last autumn.

The Alchemist's Lament

I spake: "Thy love's grief dwelleth in my core,
A breast brim-full with sorrows, evermore.

So long as in my head thy tumult lies,
Vain phantasies I bear, by nights, by sighs.

An hundred years have flown, yet not thy grace;
Save grief of parting, naught is my embrace.

In vigil lone, my heart with blood was stained,
By rival's tyranny, in

Zen mode

although all debts of love have been repaid
and we no longer assign souls a grade
life as already impulsed does flow on
which matters not since in bliss streams we wade

Hot Air Balloon Rides

Excitement built up,
riding the hot air balloon
with my two daughters.
Turned to fear for falling fast,
bounced on the ground, and then dragged.

The frightening ride
happened in New Mexico
sixteen years ago,
did not dampen my spirit 
for riding another one.

Felt no excitement 
nervous from the prior ride,
calmly went for it.
Magic moment in the sky,
view of sunrise and balloons. 

From Ashes, I Arose Anew

Your love flew wingless with the summer wind,
And left me stranded, hopeless, in a pit.
Alone I became too much for my mind,
With my love jailed by your self-written writ.

I was consumed by the flame of your rage,
Yet from the ashes, I arose anew.
I found a heart whose kindness could assuage,
And clean even a faintest thought

One Year of You, Melissa

One Year of You, Melissa

One year ago, the stars began,  
And heaven said, "She is mine."  
A small spark, a breath so new,  
The world was brighter all for you.

Your giggles flower like morning sun,  
Your eyes, two stars that brightly shine.  
Each step you take, each sound you make,
