On Learning To Become a Guru

On learning to become a guru...

The following artfully crafted back in the day
(actually poetic endeavor presented below
written a few scant years ago) in response to
unexpected positive feedback received on
the most popular social media platform.

Unbeknownst to this unsuspecting witty mortal,
a reverberation attributed to butterfly effect
linkedin to hotmail twittering Facebook member,
who resides within Bhutan, his dignified volition
accorded me magnanimity titled sage without any

influential collusion from Russians bestowed yours
truly with said honorably distinguished appellation,
which humility of mine humbly accepted without a
protestation, though never would I brazenly adopt
spiritual holiness, yet flattered to share such rare

pronouncements, when unsolicited feedback lobbed
in my direction (way before advent of Information
Technology Revolution) often tendered, kindled, and
belittled this gentle human, sans when bullies slung
byte ting bit torrent loathsome scandalous red zingers

targeting personal vulnerabilities, asper being under
socially withdrawn, painfully shy, plagued with speech
impediment (severe nasality) caused by submucous
cleft client, plus weighing where needle budged from
absolute zero pounds, topped with passive demeanor

susceptibilities conveniently converging to establish
this bruised Earthling ideal choice as scapegoat, no
kidding with dread to endure endless days, weeks,
months...a lifetime channel of opprobrious, noxious,
malicious emotionally demonic, cannibalistic, barbaric

abominable, damnable, horrible diatribes chipping
(dale lee) at what measly self confidence shielded
fragile psyche fast crumbling into grist for hungry
caterpillar, unbeknownst that flight path randomly

followed by a representative of Lepidoptera order,
would ineluctably set very subtly infinitesimal
fluctuations within air (currently supplying biota
with requisite oxygen), also training perturbation.

Patience Young Grasshopper mine alter ego spoke
when yours truly figuratively chomping at the bit
more accurately fretting with anxiousness when
boyhood body of mine underwent metamorphosis
impossible mission to thwart biological transformation.


Vertigo

She was yer postcard type of witch
Long black cloak and red striped hose
Pointy hat and straggly raggly hair
Even wart of requisite size on nose
Miaowly cat of evil demeanour
Balanced there on her broom
With a certain air of sang froid
As she steered around the room

But eye of toad and tongue of newt
Plus any spell known just couldn’t right
That she couldn’t fly by the moon
Cos she was so afeared of heights
She never made the witches ball
Never danced the Evil Tango
If one just can’t ride one’s broomstick
There’s no way known that one can go
So she sits at home in misery
Frantically searching for a spell
A charm a potion or incantation
To solve her perfectly dreadful hell

Oh she can curse with the best of ‘em
Cure warts and other various ills
But how can a witch be credible 
When she’s always having spills
How can a witch have pride
When she can’t leave her room
To attend her monthly local coven
Cos she keeps falling off her broom

Premium Member Oh, Waters Beguile

Impermeable waters thrill the air
To invigorate tiptoes everywhere,
Dizzy where moist grasses and blooms unfurl
As herons pirouette through a curved swirl,
Where mist, in full hydration, reels a while
Its tangy perfume …the senses beguile! 

As crystallization forms like soft ice
From mild gushes, flowing tendrils baptize
The requisite weave of crests, its tidal intent
Where islet’s  limbs end a water dance’s fest
Oh, precipitation  of gust crowns the moon
Tugging lovers and dreams in  a ballad’s tune.

Premium Member What Comes After Tuesday

"I'm hearing images, I'm seeing songs no poet has ever painted
Voices call out to me, straight to my heart"

Cold, emotionless, and her nature, defiant 
Hard to connect with as well as unreliant
A boarding school for outcasts such as Wednesday
Revenge for brother, brings on her sinister way 

Dysfunctional families—ivory towers make wagers
Enrolled are lost souls and morbid teenagers
Like Arkham Asylum, a long and brutal history
Medieval mayhem come to life again in her story

Nevermore Island, Romania’s Nevermore Academy
Unconventional practices become their enemy
Designed for students with extreme personalities 
Who don’t think their practices convey abnormalities 

Is an all American coming-of-age supernatural
Tangled in spider silk or it’s web, which is factual?
And there it is the unscrupulous psycho-therapist
A principal’s shapeshifter and her sorceress rapist

Forcing thoughts back into some semblance of order   
Werewolves, vampires, gorgons, and sirens who boarder
Are the architectural texts with applications ubiquitous 
And the requisite archaic desperate mass exodus
           
Dark long tresses, paints it black in gothic dresses
Many who are romantic interests she addresses
Rises to an ovation with a most clever shadow dance
Sanity, reason, balance, rationality, and much arrogance

Behind the smiling facade of normality where lie derelicts
There lurks a psychopathic serial killer, and other convicts               
Beyond their control, declined their world of decadence
Insanity, lunacy, madness, the outcasts show no evidence 

Highly severe psychological and physical illnesses?
Or real paranormal abominations and alien devises 
Guiding her are messages from the beyond with passion
Her lecture combined intellectual lucidity and compassion

Premium Member Flannel, Quilts and Nippy Nights

Summertime is finally fleeting
and oddly, though, I am not sad.
Yes, the fields will soon be emptied
of pastel-colored flowers and buzzing bees
and wading knee-deep in tall, wild grass
as the sun takes its time in setting,
late into the warm-breeze nights
that cause one to linger 
and gaze up into a sky 
transforming from azure to cobalt
with stars in infinite millions
bringing on a sense of wonder
that never ceases to delight.

However, Autumn is waiting
quietly beyond Summer's bend
and now and then you can hear it,
see it, feel it as it approaches.
Just little touches here and there.
But sure enough, it will break free
of Summer's green and yellow dreamy hold
to announce itself in snippets
of orange, red, russet and gold.
Yes, the days are still warm and sunny
but the darker early mornings 
and darker early evenings
are tell-tale as to what 
Autumn is really up to.

So this is the time that I relish most,
that in-between moment 
when we'll soon have 
a new seasonal host
that will require of us to put away
the shorts, the sandals,
the beach towels and lotions
that made our Summer
a sensuous journey
peppered with sunshowers,
thunderclouds, swims in the lake,
collecting shells on the shoreline
and charring vegetables on grills
and catching up on novels
for requisite lounge chair readings
and picking flowers in the garden
awash in scents and ladybugs
as iced drinks are sipped and savored
under umbrellas striped and wide.

Yes, this is the time
when flannel, quilts and nippy nights
become the wardrobe,
the bedcoverings,
the almost-black frosty evenings
that draw us to lighting candles, 
tending firesides,
brewing up extra coffee or tea
or reaching for cups of hot chocolate
or perhaps sifting through cookbooks
in search of something soothing to bake
that'll taste even better while
wrapped in a blanket or thick fuzzy robe
for requisite armchair readings
of long-held books, old letters, old photos
or just recalling beautiful memories 
of golden Summers past
that now bring comfort and peace
to our yearning Autumnal souls.

Premium Member Desire,Is Lifes Magic Potion

The flaming fire of desire, has consumed
me most of my revolutionary life.
And beyond, far, far beyond the 
confines of being just a Mother and 
dutiful wife.

It drove me out of Chicago on a
mad hunt, for a beautiful city to
do more than just exist in.
Somewhere, where I could contribute
to life and see a massive win!
 
I found that magical place, where 
this became so wonderfully true!
A transformative place, wherein 
integrity and telling truth was most 
a pleasure-filled requisite to do.
I participated in both guest seminar 
leader and trainer-to-be programs,too.

My life took a shift at that point 
in time.
It was both demanding and spectacular.
Yet in a way, most gentle and kind.

I started living beyond friends and family.
Halted blaming world history for the way 
things, "be!".

Waking people to get their hands on the 
steering wheel of this,present life.
Developing programs to rid the world of 
strife.

Never using illness as a way to manipulate 
people.
My soul shines as bright as one on any sunny 
church steeple!

San Francisco will always be very spiritual 
to me.
It's the shiny, satiny ribbon on my life, based in
this century, in truth and integrity.

Poetry, for me, is but a minuscule beginning!
Humanity over government and confetti fears?
I would call that a most blessed winning!

Walking on the edge of the eternal, indeed!
To do so with alacrity, joy and speed!

Premium Member Water Is Life

WATER IS LIFE
                             
        Wonderful Water welcomes Life on Earth.
        Only object in three natural forms
        with solid Ice, liquid Water, and water Vapor

        Sea waves roaring, river waves propagate
        Waves in lakes rippling.
        Waterfall cascading free frolic.
                           
        Evaporation from water surfaces results in cloud formation
         Power of proud clouds bursts out in tears of rain shower.
        Profile of liquid state back to water surface
          completing water cycle.
         Rains in shower or drizzle or chased by storm.
                      
         Glaciers descending, sliding giving birth to stream
         Icebergs floating on Ocean
          Snow melts from ice caps, waterfall follows to flow
      Stream and river run ceaseless to meet ocean’s dream.
       
        Nature presents water in varied form so spectacular.
           Land mass of Earth too small to stand.
          More than double: Water in galore
          Sink to sea water, not a drop to drink.
         Bring fresh sweet water from stream or spring
        Other resource underground water, not to bother.
  
            For life water is requisite to start,
           to flourish to flora and fauna too.
            Encore! Water invigorates life to restore.
           Nurture water for future as unique elixir element of Nature.
           Life running in Aqua Flow.

Premium Member On the Shoulders of Authors

It hasn’t been all bad…this quarantine we’ve been on
For instance I can’t believe some of the wonders I have seen 
and the places I have gone.

No, I haven’t actually been anywhere, of course, that would be wrong…
but luckily I have the shoulders of authors who let me ride along….

Yesterday wearing a hat and pipe and my requisite wisdom and grace
I was with Dr. Watson in England helping Sherlock solve a case.

Today I’m riding a noble steed…and it’s anybody’s guess…
Will I be slaying a dragon…
guarding a king…
or saving a damsel in distress?

Tomorrow I may wrest victory from the edges of my doom
I may storm a castle gate…or open a Pharaoh’s tomb.

Or I could be the captain of a submarine…
20,000 leagues under the sea
I could be a prince, a king, a wizard…
I can only imagine the hero I might be…

I might climb a beanstalk…or finally learn how to cook
for there are no limits to what I may discover…
within the pages of a book.

So when I can’t go anywhere…but my urge to travel is strong…
thank goodness there are authors who let me ride along…

Thank goodness there are authors who in this time of gloom…
will take me any place I want to go…from the comfort of my room.
