The Bitter Knowing
The restricted fruit on Eden's first bough, A hidden truth draped in deceptive sheen, It promised wisdom, beckoning us now, To break the bond where pure delight had been. Not sweetness found, as other harvest gave, But sharper sight, a world of right and wrong; A sudden shame, no innocence could save, Where simple joy...

Premium Member KNOWING WHAT TO CARE ABOUT
May we be blessed across this world, our country, our cities, our towns and in our own neighborhood… Not to be those people who care about those things in life we shouldn’t… but be the ones who care about those things in life we should. ...

Premium Member The all-knowing eye
Looking deeper than boundaries of skin, we recognise God’s light in every form, as light eternal, deep in heart within, as the vital force which keeps bodies warm, field of love and light, with which we conform. God then is the source, that lights every light and this knowing bestows spherical sight, that thus both immanent and transcendent, suffused with rapture of bliss...

This Father’s day I’m grateful for remembering a truth that’s ironclad… How any man can father a child… but it takes time, energy love and patience for that man to become a Dad. ...

Premium Member I loved you from a distance, knowing that one day I would have to let you go
I loved you from a distance, knowing that one day I would have to let you go, and now that day is near, and I sit with the weight of all these thoughts, wondering why I opened my heart, knowing you were never mine, why I let you enter my world when I always knew you'd leave, I wish...

Premium Member DAILY GRATITUDE KNOWING WHER TO LOOK
Today as I peruse the pages of my life’s book… I’m grateful that, over the years, in life I’ve known where to look… Because knowing where to look in life is important… and may not always be as easy as it seems… When I’ve looked outside myself I’ve discovered the beauty in the world…. when I’ve looked inside…I’ve found my...

Premium Member knowing by which all is known
Flow of God’s life force, in this form of dust, enables us to ink the void with love, requiring but we discard deeds unjust, that boons of grace may in-pour from above. Innate joy of heart ushers bliss delight, that as we embark on a wingless flight, there is in us no fear, since God is near, speaking as conscience, whose whispers...

Premium Member DAILY GRATITUDE KNOWING THE DIFFERENCE IN RELIGIONS
Today I’m grateful for knowing the difference…. (something I learned long ago while attending Catholic school) between religions that are kind, loving, compassionate and giving and religions that are cruel. For I believe no religion can call it self holy… when they do their best to create… within their followers cruelty, prejudice, anger, animosity and hate....

Through This Weary Way of Silence
Silence, like a glass thrown up in the air Then exploding, its shards like a nagging echo Raining on a heart, and it's so unfair To bleed for love that is not there... Is there, Through this weary way of silence, I must go. I would turn around then I would not turn around, Your smile and glances...

Open Your Eyes
? Open Your Eyes ? Open your eyes, not just to the light But to the stillness that waits in the absence of sight Truth doesn’t hide in temples or skies It lives in the silence behind your own eyes You search for answers in pages and speech But the knowing you seek is just out of reach Not because it's far,...

to know without knowing
To Know Without Knowing Red moss, crimson as the blood of a slaughtered calf, I knew I had seen it before but could not recall where or when. To see a landscape painting, knowing I had been there before In the Valley of Cobblers, children ran barefoot on summer grass and scented wildflowers unpasteurized milk,...

Knowing My True Self
I walk forward, Not with fear, But with quiet faith Knowing I am being led Knowing that when the time comes To meet my Creator, I will stand tall—knowing I’ve done my best to live on purpose, With love, with integrity....

Not Knowing
Not knowing is scary, It’s unnerving. I wonder everyday where you are And how you’re doing, And if there’s a new me in your life. But you said there’s no one like me. Was that a lie? It wouldn’t be the first time you’ve lied. The scars on my limbs are the only reminder of you. Such a sad thought. That only way I remember...

Premium Member Knowing
Somethings need no explanation You see a word You know it's spelt wrong A letter out of place You just know it You may know nothing about music Until a wrong chord is struck One bad note And no one has to tell you You just know it I came to know you Beyond the person people see There was nothing out of place No wrong chord in...
