In the cathedral of time, where seconds drip like holy myrrh on the altar of eternity, We stand, creatures of light draped in mantles of shadow and doubt, With golden hands weaving the veil of reality, yet eyes covered by scales of ignorance, While the Great Weaver watches silently from behind the cosmic curtain. Our ship of destiny sails...

Ode To the Myrrh Tree
ODE TO THE MYRRH TREE So the tree stood in the centre of the desert Mangled by winds of change and truth of joy and chains of dust and torrents of rare rain Burnt black and senseless by an unrelenting Sun of nightmare beauty And orange was the sand of scorpions orange was the mirage of miracles orange was her veil...

Tea and Honey
~~~Loving the rain is only a matter of perspective~~~ It's been rainy nights in Georgia for the past few days. Not the type of night for searching stars to gaze. It's wet and windy to an uncomfortable chill. Nights for quiet reading and listening attentively still. Putting a log on the fire to glow its'...

The Wisemen were summoned to Herod’s palace, a night so fine. He wanted to know when the star in the east rose, so sublime. They hemmed and hawed for a while, for they figured out why He was so keen on learning of the prophetic star in the sky. Many children up to age two, were slaughtered, due...

Garments Scented In Myrrh Aloes As Cassia
Without the means to take us there, we spread our wings.. Amid imagination and shall one fail as fly ? Revisiting days gone by A young teen sitting at her mall; tainted, still far from polluted be they yet Their heart but even more so it's flesh ?

/ the Hexing Myrrh
Painstakingly across the fallow Walking From all directions, the villagers coming Unwavering steps, the hamlet behind forsaking To the river bank, they all were heading. The moon, the sky still ruling, lambent Through the wood they all unusually silent The senesced, vernal as well as the infant Heedlessly crunching the fall path oddment By the stream they stood thoroughly expecting The faintest breeze down...

Dreams of Silk and Lilac Myrrh
Blushing moon, night again Sends foreign thoughts inside my head Nest of flowers kill the cold As dreams enter the sleeper's fold Yellow bird coo's aloft A lullaby made of jade and soft Dreams of silk and lilac myrrh Dance the dreams that belong to her Golden fantasy and silver nights Color her dreams of black and white....
