"You are not alone" she whispered to a dying girl
while the angels swooped down to hold a pearl
Unspeakable acts in a world of dishumanisation
mental illness is spreading, inside our Nation..
Why is it the innocent pay for the debt
of sick people they have never met?.
I cannot imagine what Linda was thinking
as she held a dying soul without blinking
In memory of this beautiful soul that died
let us bow our heads and prep our souls
for a moment of quietude and silence
Let us say a prayer for those who died
Mental illness is like a candle stick snuffer
extinguishing flames in a cone shaped world
Its the innocent ones that go on to suffer
in a world where violence/ treason is hurled.

In the darkness , I hear voices saying “ Rest-in Peace “
The sound, of thunder, the shovel full of sweet earth
Cascading upon my casket Death is Imminent
In the silence of my thoughts I await the Heavenly Light
The quietude of Death, the dreams of my beloved LENORE
Soon I will leave this Limbo, this blacken Purgatory.
In life I waited decades for OUR Souls to become ENTWINED
My most beloved LENORE : Where is the GLORY of FOREVER?
This is my grim and ghastly, soundless colourless ETERNITY
No songs of My LENORE, no brilliance of LENORE’S Beauty
SO CRUEL
SO VERY CRUEL
As ego identity gradually recedes
centred in tranquil inner quietude
nestled in a continuum of stillness
bliss throb increases in magnitude
Occasionally acts need to be done
compelling indulgence of attention
yet recognising divine as the mover
we act that there be no bliss dilution
Recognising divine presence in all
we feel everywhere one heart beat
that there be no ripple in joyousness
the pulse of love is how all we greet
Observing acts arising from delusion
recognised as temporary aberration
our interaction proposing alignment
demeanour being a loving suggestion
The gains & losses and twists & turns
no longer part of our consciousness
all we seek is enhancing love quotient
in the energy field of singular Oneness

These letters (words) are only for you.
This archway, between our souls, shall last forever.
A foretaste of Eden, where love signals throughout;
Eternal twin of flame. Here fate has landed us entwined,
Between the echoes of time.
Postmarked postcard, a message to the sender reciprocated.
Set in motion: everything takes time.
In rhythm, pulling on your heartstrings.
Make me believe? In the universal North Star. Skyline.
When in sync, we bloom; our fervor carries us through
Open skies and sea, our shared quietude: from this
Rotations: a panoramic view in intimacy.
While flames flicker, violet purple, energy.
Over the blue mounds, the aura of Minnesota stands.
Beyond the once dusty hills.
Here we are in awe, where beginning and end meet.
Yes! An unending consummation.
Like a lasting fragrance that lingers forever.
Come sit upon my deck, it is covered
with birdsong; bedecked in peace.
Come tarry; let me pour a warm beverage
of chocolate, tea or coffee. Listen
to the tweets, twitters, bird-sweets.
Come sit close, listen to nothing at all,
but the peace between two friends.
We will wait, we will watch for a.m. deer.
Quietly, we sit, side by side, as the sun
gives rise, reveling in God’s mercy -
day by day, with Summer bare feet,
sound mind, promise of newness.
Come sit, as friends do, then eventually,
their lips part with a passing remark.
Nothing cool or wise, just a soothing tone,
that lets the silent world know there’s life.
Quietude trains, it is painted with rain
and wildlife. Come, as the cool of morning,
touches a heart of flesh and pink pyjamas.
Come, as I sip my two-serving cup of peace
and quiet, whistles, hooting, no hollering.
There’s an occasional chirp, rarely a deer.
Here’s hoping. Yesterday, I spied one alone,
who hid behind a tree, momentarily, though
it did not see me. Come, I say, come. I watch.
We’d watch, or talk, or both. Perhaps, I’ve said
too much. Let’s listen, as my skin steams,
from my guzzled caffeine. Birds dance before me.
a hot cup of tea ...
a walk in nature ... my own garden of blooming flowers
these are some things that bring me inner peace
I have stopped chasing happiness
now, I let ...
happiness find me
~ I accept that I am human and not all that perfect
and I know all my flaws and still, still ...
I love the calm me ... I have become ~
my fluffy grey kitty cat
writing, sketching, creating art and photography
all these bring harmony into my heart and soul
and journaling to manage my thoughts
and feelings ... these spell bliss to me
~ letting go of toxic people who lie, gossip and bully
for I have found my beautiful moral compass
and there is a great power in living by my own beliefs ~
kindness, gratitude, prayer and meditation
and choosing my battles for there is strength in turning away
this is finding paradise on Earth
now, I only let tranquility leave my lips
and I let only serenity dwell in my heart
I have found my own Nirvana in accepting God's hand
... in quietude and stillness
for only when 'alone' in my mind does he find me
~ everyday, I declutter the stuff drifting in my mind
I just let it go .. to float away until there is nothing left
sometimes, I even step back from all technology
and even ... leave my cellphone at home
for what is so important
... that I should let it destroy my peacefulness ~

PRAISE BE TO GOD WHO BESTOWS US

Cabernet wings fluttering
in a house of mirrors.
The rotunda of cheers,
just below the lip,
above the murkiness
of a hospitality sip.
Double dip nights,
halfway through
conversation of the past;
the sate of emotional till;
tears flutter unexpectedly.
Wings of quietude,
coalesce inside the glass,
humoring an aunt and niece.
Chasing away this insect-bird,
this apparition of Green Valley.
Kin covers the glasses
with smiles, lips and palms.
Harrowing moments attach
themselves to memories,
cleverly; the moment itself
vanishes, or does it remain
an infinity ring,
a nimbus of forever light
and love in a holy place.
“Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation.” Psalm 68:19 of the King James Bible.
Assurance of heaven through faith in Christ
Bountiful eternal life, heavenly-priced…
Compassion gripping my rescued soul
Direction to reach each worthy goal…
Enthusiasm enabling servanthood route
Fulfillment in reaching-out against skeptic doubt…
Grace vanquishing selfishness-trace
Heart that yields upon humility-brace…
Illumination from truths of steadfast Scriptures
Joy overflowing toward faithful steward gestures…
Kindness, kindling attitude of gratitude
Love upheld by mercy’s fortitude…
Miracles only God can do with His caring might
Nurture of commitment in prayer plight…
Opportunities to experience Almighty’s gentleness
Power of pardon’s functionality- completeness…
Quietude against pressure angst with blessed serenity
Revival-rejuvenation and restoration certainty…
Security despite fear’s attacks, challenging His presence
Thanksgiving praises around worship-fluorescence…
Understanding Bible teachings through wisdom divine
Vibrancy to pursue what’s right according to Sovereign design…
Well-being and excellent health in the Saviour’s settlement
Xenial relationship along meaningful ministerial engagement…
Youthfulness’ zest overcoming aging-prompted misery
Zeal of persistence, surmounting futility toward daily victory.

LOVE PEACE CHARITY
To Love and be loved
is the greatest bliss of God
Love is the noblest power overpowering love for power.
Love is the emerald emotion of human.
Placid tranquil peace ensuing easy smoothness
assuring serenity of surrounding
Cool calm approach devoid of conflict
attaining eternal quietude.
Charity to begin at home.
while humble heart helps without expectation.
Spontaneous desire for aids to provide on devotion and dedication.
Wholehearted response to needy as frolic giver.
Implementing materialistic assistance on temperament to donate
Impulsive voluntary emotive urge to initiate charity.
