Premium Member In My Pyramid of Meditation

In my pyramid of quartz,
Its shimmering crystal walls,
Help adjust my vibrations.
I will arise and touch the 
God within; the bright crystals.
All souls must fly, at some point;
If not in meditation.

Soul flight reaches the source;
Touches God’s face and it
Brings in the light of the 
God-mind; enlightening 
all of those who touch God.
Here I learn to succeed.

For it's a crystals
Purpose to provide,
Energy to fly,
Into the ethers
With no earthly bulk.

When I fly in
Dreams, I must take
Time to decrypt,
What I’m given.

Archetypes,
Are symbols;
Conscious mind,

Does not, 
Translate

Well.


Premium Member In Simple Words

breath by breath
as our life renews 
in truth we stand
in God’s shoes

He dwells within
giving life to form
we acknowledge not
so fail to transform

mind-body awareness
feels separate from source
owing to this delusion
we employ use of force

now we do need the ego
in order to survive
but if we neglect soul
how will we thrive

ego lies in head
love pulsates in heart
thus unless both align
life quest cannot start

liberation is simple
false identity we don
transient and illusionary
whence shorn we’re reborn

we’d do well to repeat
a million times if need be
we’re soul and not body-mind
reaffirm daily until we see

fears and desires recede
we live a life internalised
engaging with life as ordained
until our true Self is realised

just as water seeks its level
if we become an empty shell
God’s love and light fills us
and then all is well

"Are you a mommy's girl or a daddy's girl?"

"Are you a mommy's girl or a daddy's girl?"
I used to be...

Once I was a daddy's girl.

I thought no one loved like he did.
He was my Sun.
He made everything clear for me,
vanquishing every darkness.
He was my favourite person,
and no one in this world could compare.

But then I grew up.

I wasn't a little girl anymore.
I was a young woman.

And as a woman,
his actions made his love feel impure.

With every centimetre I grew,
so did the rift between us.

For my heart broke
for what he did to her.

At some point,
I was a mommy's girl too.

I thought I'd love no one like I loved her.
She was my Moon.

Even through the darkest nights,
her light never dimmed.
She was my source of strength.

But then I grew up.

I wasn't a little girl anymore.
I was a young woman.

And as a woman,
I began to see the cracks she tried so hard to hide.
I saw her love,
but I also felt the weight of her expectations.

With every centimetre I grew,
so did the distance between us.

For in her eyes,
I had failed before I had begun.

He was my Sun,
and she was my Moon.

Together, they lit my sky.

But now...
I have neither.

So I gather what little light they left behind,
and learn to become
my own sunrise,
my own moonlight.

Because sometimes,
the child who loses both
must become
her own sky.

Sunshine

For certain my gut feeling was telling me stories, abbreviating decrees filling my soul with sunshine 

My heart was a rock but now the tender care is specified freely from your heart, feeling my heart with gladness 

I am confident that you are always there 
Every waking hour 
Your love is there all the time and without reservation 

I knew I did not have a great life and was getting by okay 
By knowing you and getting closer to you, you brought sunshine to my overcast life 

Your gypsy soul light up my world with your gently radiant smile 
Everything is so pleasant and new 

You made me safe and untouched by neither morning or noon 
Fixing lights and matching them with my laughs of breezy sunshine 
Each day is golden and more still than the day before 

You are my calm and languid sunshine and faintly made us grow even when the storm hangs low 

In my eyes you will remain my sun and my greatest source of light
Making me nervous and giggly like drums escaping the sound of the music to my ears 

Poet 
Masego Nkuna

The I of the Storm

The I of the storm

I search for the storm, the source of the spinning
those pillaging hurricanes blurring the eye
That cyclone of fear, the tempest beginning,
with rain battered teardrops I can’t help but cry

The rumbling ocean, destructive and tidal,
while flood ravaged shorelines are drowning the hope
Surging erratic and poised suicidal,
surrounded in darkness with no light to cope

The torrent of pain that keeps raging nearer
as thunder clouds form deeply under the skin 
I now see the storm as I look in the mirror,
reflecting the cracks ever growing within

Premium Member I Reach For Pudding

What do I reach for first? the rule of my land….
Pudding, and I quite honestly do not care what brand.
I love chocolate, caramel, and butterscotch too.
Adding whipped cream. M and M’s? Maybe a few.

I warm the pudding up in the microwave of course.
Remembering Mom’s pudding, it was such a sweet source.
If there is left over cake, I will put my pudding on that.
Pudding widens my smile, with a zip and a zap!

They have coconut cream now? What? You are kidding me!
Another snack, which brings my favorites to one, two and three.
Chocolate, and vanilla, wait, I love lemon pudding too!
If I had to narrow down the puddings, I would not know what to do.

Parents' Love

Children add charm to the house 
A source of happiness and togetherness for spouse 
Parents' love has no limit and end
It's always true,they never pretend 
The love is equal for one and all
Whether big,Whether small
All are dearest, without doubt
It's the affection, all about 
Those who need attention more
Feel neglected to the core
He who is loved more
Is weak and timid,for sure
For the parent, all are equal 
Love and care,are same as sequel 
Which one do you love more?
One may ask,amongst the four
It's a question, obvious for a parent 
If one feels,the love is apparent 
Parents' love has no boundary 
It's always equal, all and sundry 
Parents' love is always a blessing 
It's genuine, that goes without saying...

Premium Member Holy Art Thou

Son of God
Lord
You are:

Oracle of peace
wise counselor
source within the living waters

That breathes life
into insightful predictions
of our future holdings

Son of Mary
With grace and mercy
one regal descendent of David

A sacrificial birth born
under the shadow of the cross
the Son of the most high

An eternal ruling Monarch
whose loving touch precludes no man
behold our King has come

Immortal spirit of divinity’s
Fulfilling the prophesies
divinely anointing our Prince of Peace

Truth held under Christian virtues
through the portal our great Father
forever speaks within, Amen


unrhymed tercets

Premium Member After the War

You cried and begged him to stay
	As I winced from my soul
Stifling a cry, too – only my tears
	Were from his treatment of you

You were silent in the days after he’d gone
	Looking past me instead of at me
Seeing something I could not, a ghost perhaps
	Of the time when you both laughed

Your hope, I could see, was lost in the past
	Where dread and darkness caressed
Shadows of your heart and soul, your love
	Which shed tears of loss that lingered on

Hues of gray mingled with your tears
	Touching me with the need I could feel
A poverty so deep and rich it begged for
	A breath of color to brighten your thoughts

Whispers of pain mingled with dismay at your condition
	Flowed rich with grief, mourning for this
Man who was filled with rage, racked with storms
	Breaking more than bones, but hearts and homes

You shine, like a dawn light, with insight and faith
	Grace that clings to the source of your love
A power higher than the one that left you lost and alone
	Silent as the sun – begging for mercy to come

He left you and I didn’t cry for him at all, was almost happy
	He was gone and I could see you shine like the sun
With your kindness and joy, your flavors of sweetness assuring
	My heart that he had left you with more love than loss

I, being the child of this marriage, this passion that vanished
	Was the only one, it seemed, to truly accept the fierce
Piercing truth that told everyone we knew we were better off
	Because he had never been the good man you deserved

He had been a cold, hard, heartless man of cynicism
	He had been dark and prayerless, like a stone
Who only knew to reach out to you with a yelling wave
	Of distrust, disdain, discouragement

For me, his leaving was a blessing to be thankful for
	You seemed sad, but I was glad
When he left, there was finally a peace to feel, relief
	Where there had only been a battleground

What Is Dad

Dad is a man of God.
Dad is a protector.  
Dad is a provider.
This is the way some people see dad.  But looking back on my life as dad I see that 
dad is much more. 
 
Dad is a booster seat and a comfortable chair.  
Dad is a warm blanket that holds you tight and makes you feel safe.  
Dad is a repair man who knows just the right way to put your toys together and fix 
them when they break.  
Dad is a comedian who can always make you laugh and instantly turns into a tickle 
monster just when you need one.  
Dad is a combination madd scientist and cook, whose experiments don’t always turn 
out right, but are always fun .  
Dad is an animal doctor who works miracles with a prayer and a bottle of 
peroxide.  
Dad is a source of life’s wisdom except when it comes to algebra.  
Dad is a captivated audience when you put on your big shows and he’s always your 
biggest fan.  
Dad is a quiet man when he’s thinking really hard.  
Dad is a loud man when he is sleeping real hard.
Dad is a friend who loves us and a teacher who guides us. 
But most of all… 
Dad is human and he makes mistakes and he understands that we make mistakes 
to.
