September's Star

   Vespers of the North Star,
            Prithee August zephyrs,
                  Abides thy cobalt crown,
                 Pirouette effulgence,
Thy northern lights renown.

   Vespers of the North Star,
                   Wist indigo twilight,
  Van Gogh wouldst captured thee,
      Thy freshly framed canvas,
         Old Master's devotee.

   Vespers of the North Star,
         Of late Dutch Boy in blue,
                    Textured in porcelain,
  Slept curled in the wee night,
            Translucent artisan.

   Vespers of the North Star,
               Aurora's breakfast tea,
                Cozy midst remembers,
  Fond farewell bidst thee thine,
            Albeit, September's.

Premium Member Dance of Innocence

Dance of innocence, to divine cadence
Vibrant exuberance in nonchalance
We are all upbeat by magnetic heat 
Sitting thus at Gods feet, with bliss replete
Head-heart balance, with love in alliance

Bliss the quintessence of divine essence
Self-luminescence, Gods own radiance
Love embrace indiscreet, knows no retreat
Dance of innocence 

Essence of presence, aligned with conscience 
Upright stance, immersed in a prayerful trance
Love sweet greets, once lower mind we forfeit 
Heart the love seat, where polarities meet
Self-effulgence bursts forth in full brilliance 
Dance of innocence

Premium Member April's Song

Mother Nature breathes new life
to all of springtime’s world.
April comes to waken seedlings
sleeping in earth’s fertile womb.
Her song rains down upon their heads,
and then she brightens them
with sunshine from luminous blue skies.

Poets too join in – composing odes
as overtures to spring, elatedly and enchantingly.
They conjure imagery resounding with
the essence of effulgence
yearned for in the winter’s icy grip.

Melancholy flees before the scent
of oleander blooms and lilac sprigs.
Nothing quite inspires 
like this wonderful yet transitory time
when poets’ hearts and souls 
echo April’s song.

Premium Member When the Moon Is Full

Science has disproved
the legends about full moons,
but one thing is for certain:
when I see it thus -
gold and glowing in the sky -
something indeed does happen.

My mind takes flight, and
I’m more in tune with nature.
I marvel that such beauty
occupies heaven.
When it takes me by surprise,
its effulgence delights me.

I’m led to ponder
how something so far away
seems so right up in my face;
how it has appeared
through eons, steadfastly at
the set time of its cycle.

Is it no wonder
the poems it has inspired
and lovers it has entranced?
One of the few things
of God’s brilliant creations
shared equally by us all!

Premium Member A Passion For Color

Ecstatic light plays about
gasses and pigmentation like
kittens learning to wrestle.

values lend their whispers 
to saturation in chromatic
celebration.

Purity of intensity
arises to greet the nimbus
and an aurora dances to nature’s tune.

Elation of incandescence
irradiates the eye
with a plethora of vibrancy as the
spectrum enfolds the harmonic soul;
chroma-bytes radiantly digitized by sun,
shake hands with the senses.

Effulgence greets the artists eye
with a loving caress;
color, the heart-strings that 
light plucks...
and I dance.

Premium Member Enlightenment in an instant

Held captive in space and taunted by time,
impressions graze soul as senses entwine,
where recognition dawns betwixt love’s chime,
in that instant when head and heart align.

Blink and we’ll miss it, that flicker in space,
beheld if our ego, we but let go,
whereupon the veil lifts admitting grace,
revealing our being, pristine like snow.

Soundless thunder rising from down under,
lights in our soul’s presence, love’s bliss incense,
imbibed by our heart in childlike wonder;
that rapture borne by divine effulgence.

Enlightenment: when does the tumbler fall;
in as that instant, birthing a bliss squall?

The Radiant River

The radiant river is where I ought to be 
The radiant river is here to set us free
The radiant river is there to supply our endless needs
The radiant river is beyond the wild, reckless weeds

Streams of blood ripple in my veins...in my vibrantless veins...
Streams of worthlessness goes through my bemused brain
The radiant river renews my strength to move on with life actually
The radiant river renews my willpower to go forward wholeheartedly

The river below us is rapidly growing bigger
The river below us is drowning away sorrow
The river above us is slowly getting wetter
The river in my eyes are colliding as you know

Raindrops from bitter clouds collapse upon my hand
We are from a different land and now, I understand 
The waves of my grief shine upon you now
The river of relief kindly is upon me somehow

Bravery is unwavering in my mind's wandering maze 
I am going through a difficult phase and I am in a daze
Inject illumination into my dim veins
Lower my anxiety in my weary brain…

The river of radiance
Is like a brilliant dance 
Enhance my effulgence inside me
In a trance in a sense...breathing heavily

The river of hope up above is here to stay
The river of ever-roving love is a day away
The radiant river sways and courses inside and out of me over and over
The radiant river swims to the ocean of emotion and finds another lover 

Overall, I think the river favors me over the other bodies of water
I am the teardrops from bitter clouds that is a shelter like no other
Beauty is shyly shimmering and the moon is simply glimmering overhead
Misery is disappearing and the sun is sprouting while my feet feel like lead

I still believe in you, no matter what weather
I don't want to leave behind the radiant river
I still believe in swimming with you, abiding by my side
I don't want to leave the ocean, so gracious and wide

Many Years Ago

You shine so beautifully…don’t try so hard
Hello sunshine…it has been years since you haven’t rose from depression
But, you finally got through the war and you won…it’s over with…you made a good last impression
On your friends before they kissed their demises…don’t be miserable, beloved bard 

Beauty was flying and it never dried from sight 
But that was many years ago

I woke up on a fresh morning…on a clean slate
Hello moonlight…it has been years since you haven’t disappeared from sight
But, you finally lost the battle of survival…and you must accept your failures and move on with life…become friends with the sunlight
Before it loses its appealing effulgence…before it faces crisis…I’m happy in my optimistic state 

Hope was abiding near our side during divine flight  
But that was countless years ago 

You were mine like jewels connected to my body…please don’t discard
This wonderful opportunity…it has been years since you haven’t waken up from suppression and captivity…you groan 
But, you believed in your perpetual future and now you’re gone…hopelessness barrels in this heart of stone 
I’ve fallen in the same pit of deceiving paradise…life can get hard…

You shine so beautifully…don’t try so hard
Hello sunshine…it has been years since you haven’t rose from depression
But, you finally got through the war and you won…it’s over with…you made a good last impression
On your friends before they kissed their demises…don’t be miserable, beloved bard 

Beauty was flying and it never dried from sight 
But that was many years ago

I woke up on a fresh morning…on a clean slate
Hello moonlight…it has been years since you haven’t disappeared from sight
But, you finally lost the battle of survival…and you must accept your failures and move on with life…become friends with the sunlight
Before it loses its appealing effulgence…before it faces crisis…I’m happy in my optimistic state 

Hope was abiding near our side during divine flight  
But that was countless years ago 

I know…baby, don’t try too hard…
Keep up your strengths and never show them your weaknesses
Show them that their demises
Isn’t the right answer to solving daily issues
Isn’t the right solution to demolish the blues…...........

Captivity

5/8/13
Spread out your wings
Come on, baby – it’s your time to fly today
Our misfortune stings
Pour forth your ecstasy – will it take away
Our despondency?

Bring me out of captivity…
Producing calamity…
I can’t reach for His light –  
THROW ME A ROPE!
I’m buried far below…
Midnight’s as dark as the cawing crow 
I CAN’T CLIMB…due to my lack of energy 
Fortify me by your might 

Spread out your wings
Wake up, darling…wake up to reality – 
Open up your window . . .
Our sundrenched spirits brings
Happiness to the hungry, arduous world 
His sincerity bestow
Miracles & eternal peace instead of 
remorse & catastrophe

Shield me with your radiance
Give me a taste of your jubilance…
Your voluptuous essence  
YOUR Pure, holy Sustenance… 
Not their truculence…
Their arrogance… Their reluctance… 
Their defiance… their unfeeling essence,
Evincing their callous hearts of stone
And crafting it, open to the public
Open to the world of woe

Spread out your wings 
Keep on believing, dearest – 
It’s not your time to die…
Your face is doused in dismay
Your melody still rings
In my ears… sticking to me like a broken record...
Will it shed a tune of delight today? 
Is it a cure to our tragedy? 

Drag me out of captivity… 
I’m sick of all of this cruelty…
I’ve fallen into a pit of obscurity– 
GIVE ME a taste of your effulgence
I’m unchained from my captivity…
Am I surely free? Where shall I flee? 
 Daylight’s as bright as the dove, fluttering gaily 
I’m incapable of flight…due to my lack of wings

Strengthen me throughout my plight! ~  ~  ~ 
  How did you make my high spirits soar upright? ~  ~  ~

Premium Member Dance of Polarities

before our heart murmurs
emotes effusing tender love
effulgence of soul’s radiance
manifests in form seeds of bliss
as an expression of consciousness 
for eternity renewing its effervescence 
in a singularity wherefrom arises duality
within the vast womb of boundless space
that pulsations of love, always self referral
reflect back onto itself rapture of divine union
of itself within itself since there is no separation 

noticing the makings of the play of life underway
presence conspires with the universe in this game
that the beauteous dance of polarities in this realm
receptive to enigmatic currents of God’s magnetism 
create by benign bliss burns fullness within emptiness 
magically unfolding a plethora of love petals in our heart
