Knowings Poems


Celestial Bodies

Celestial bodies,
coming together as one. 
Finally at home in each other
after roaming the galaxies 
alone & scared. 
Finding comfort & home
in each touch of the skin.
Trying to hold back, 
but it avails to none.
How can we hide 
from the soul that
has held us in many past ones?
When our knowings of us 
aren’t limited to 
just this one. 
No more grabbing or grasping,
choking or having to heal
from more loves.
You are the one that I want,
whom my soul loves.

Carry

I stroll down to the refreshing spring
The snow feathers through the mist. 

I carry my camera
I carry my cares
I carry my requests
Yet I carry His presence.

Alone yet not alone
Out of the Spirit, into the mind
Impressions
Knowings
Perceptions.

I walk out of the mist
Back home
He carries me.

Premium MemberAnd It Came To Pass

And It Came to Pass
David J Walker

Passing life to life
	And death to death

The rest is filling 
	And feeling 

	filing
And learning 
	The knowings 

And believings 
	Of life’s passings

And fast offerings 
	Conceiving
		Living 
	Learning 
	Leaving 
Grieving
	Growing
	Knowing 

From variant points of view
We come to know the
	Alpha and
	Omega 
And the Great I Am 
And what is true 

	And what is not 
When it comes to pass

Poem For Ma Who Liked Poetry

Ma,
Leaping off the crown of a candle,
A hot bead without hold or handle,
Blobbed as us all on the bee-smell body of a star.

Air,
Shushing from the womb of her shell room,
The leant lung's slow snore looping her loom,
Muddled with the booze which bruised her peaceful as a pear.

Hands,
Holding normal knowings in knot-roots,
Splaying through the spokes of new cahoots,
All gusts must rust and turn to dust ~ as Felixstowe pebbles will wave to wax; fast towed, fed lights, we the festooned elixir of ocean-spanned sands.

Premium MemberOn-Sight

On-Sight
There aren't many who see me-
Those few view me in the 
             Words they say
"speak" me when they 
             Glance away
Their inner ear "attuned"
Their "knowings" seek invitation
To an inner, sacred place
Long ago barricaded from
"Exploitative" desires-I can
Not promise entry-
I LIVE here, and must protect my space.
              Still; there are
                               a few...

Premium MemberPalawan Sighs

We're now into early evening knowing our knowing
As I watch her glide across the cool marble floor
Graceful steps with her summery dress flowing
It's so easy to fall in love with she whom I adore

Moments later I hear her voice from the shower
I'm being beckoned to offer my manly hands
Now witnessing such curvaceous pulling power
Steamy windows steamier, manned hands planned

On exit, robed, as we caper amidst evenings warm
Flirtatiousness abounds heightening our knowing
I reach, grasp, caught, once robed, now naked adorn
See through my eyes to what they're now seeing

In slow motion fall, cool cotton sheets in receive
Shapely curves beckon I as our eyes meet to seek
In silent approach our hungered knowings plea
Voiced torso's to meet greet seek 'n' lovingly speak

Entwined we bind our souls grasped palms clasp 
Thronging rhythmic rhythms are we, Palawan reaches
In moonlight caress, we're blessed, whilst zest rests
Bedded we lie, ties, sighs, with loves peached, teaches.

Premium MemberAbsolute Certain Knowing

Meditating with a candle.
The answers came quickly
Into my heart
Landing with zings
Confident knowings

I had no idea how I knew
But there was an absolute certain knowing
So clear, concise and accurate
That it could not be shaken

I began to plan, to plot, to create
Energy rejuvenated,
Feeling alive again
Meditating with a candle
My kind of prayer

Premium MemberThe Listen

These Knowings,
I know.

The Mountain is,
the Seas.

The Wind is,
the Trees.

The Sun is,
the Stones.
The Shadow is,
the Bones.


The Lamplight is,
the Cave.
The Falcon is,
the Grave.

These Knowings,
I know.
These Knowings,
we’ve each known,
               
               These Knowings
                                      get forgot.

These are the Knowings
preceding thinkings,
preceding feelings...
preceding precedings.
These Knowings are
not knowings for thought.

The Heart is, 
an Echo.
The Pain is,
an Echo.

The Lift is, 
the Fall.
The Listen is, 
the All.

Under the Tree

Tranquility of trees, 
standing there watching us throughout time.
Those before us,
those coming after.
All the knowings of how, what if, almost, and what was completed.
Gathering wisdom.
I am resting in your shadow, 
my eyes following the intriguing ways
your leaves sow the sun. Filling me with certainty;
There is a meaning to it all.

Knowings of My Sagely Soul

"This strife shall continually overflow this cup,"

To my inquisitive spirit my sagely soul told,

"Until with growing old

Comes growing up."

Knowing

Great faith in stillness
in things words cannot  grasp, 
in ceaseless messages
that come out of silence, 
Believing in promises
that have not yet come to pass, 
Trusting  the inner light
When there is darkness around, 
Knowing humble weeping
gives way to delight, 
are mysteries of life
but knowings of the heart.

All In Vain

moonlit tears
darkness born fears
moving at the speed of terror
hatred consumed minds
throw faces into fire
heating the misery in all who see
one more night
we'll make it til light
hopeful minds
holding tight

hate and rage
thrown to tame
the "beasts" screaming to live
another down
without a sound
silent screams heard faintly
mist of death fires of hate
burning weak bones that fall
innocence crushed and victimized
un-just souls stand tall

blood covered vows
to take beyond now
crisis remembered in hopes of no return
head counts still remain
and hatred continues to gain
again again again again
genocide reigns

hopes to remember
knowings to prevent
all lived in vain
