Premium Member What Shall We Do
Let each of us, from our heart, do what we are led to do. If the intent is for the good of ourselves, others, or all of humanity, it will be a good thing that each of us will do. ...

Premium Member Imagination
When, in darkness, there's but a single ray; When, in cruelty, there's little kindness found; Then in imagination could I stay; A private realm, and in perfection crowned; And I thought of dreams, in that certain way. When, in darkness, there shines a brilliant ray; When, in cruelty, there is a kindness found; Not in imagination would I stay; Let private thought with...

Silent Fire, Sacred Strength
The classroom is a quiet forge, and I, a blade in silent fire— shaped by care, tempered in calm, honed to serve a brighter purpose. But into this heatswept chamber she storms, a tempest cloaked in titles— her words the hammer’s fall, striking without measure, without proof. She holds a flame to my calm steel, asking why I do not sparkle like she: “Why do...

Riding a beam of universal light. The heavens are luminous, every night. Interpreted through fear a blinding bright, Filtered through Love it provides great insight. Is it better to give, than to receive? First try it, then tell me what you believe. Be honest with others, never deceive, A life worth living, you’ll surely achieve. ...

Premium Member Usefulness
All gifts must be given to sustain their usefulness. Like blood, life is in the flow, if not flowing, blood dries and dies. Movement, the constant changing, sustains the life of all living entities of creation. The Sun gives energy that sustains life on Earth. It renews itself every night by sharing the job of lighting the Earth with the...

Memories vs Merits
The good times, and fitness In albums, borne witness Disappoint on the test That determines one’s ‘rest’. The stakes can be raised By giving G-d praise, Respecting a spouse Within one’s own house, Being noted Above For doling out love, And enriching ascent On the charities spent. Descendants who’ll place On the mantle, Grand’s face Will frolic near the shelf Making memories of self....

The Moon's Purpose
As the pale, pacific moon hung low, silent and still, waiting for this day's receipts. When echoes of day's purchases will be absorbed either in the heavenly or hellish holes of the waning moon. Weary with wars, the deceit of greed, where hate is heralded more, the selfish, superior ones, their darkness dimming their light,...

Premium Member poolside
I love a long holiday and as a general rule you’ll find me out by a turquoise pool cause it’s hot outside and I’m nobody's fool. Closing my eyes I lazily daydream listening to my favorite music stream umbrella shaded from harsh sunbeams. I’ve put away polemic school assignments for leisure and tastier desultory refinements like buffalo wings, pizza and dirty martinis and the...

Premium Member Life's Bounty and Purpose
What of life’s bounty will a long life ensure? What value is purpose as life we endure? Is it beauty, talent, or money we need? Is it fame or glory, or some secret creed? From the dawns early light ‘til twilight’s sunset, Which way shall I travel, which way’s my best bet? “Is all I am that which I eat”, someone...

Passion Purpose
Passion and purpose Purpose and passion Tell me what happens When you find joy and fulfillment Does your soul starts laughing? Alive is to thrive as to prosper Is to provide. Like a tooth that is loose You feel free expressing your truth. To think is to believe as to achieve is to succeed. I am too much for you to handle Because you and...

Premium Member Universal Questions
I stand here gazing at stars in the sky, Wondering what happens when I die? It’s harder to see with my own eye, The purpose of life as it passes by. First, I’ll consider the where, when, and why? Who or what it was, that caused my goodbye? What was important, whether girl or guy? A purposeful life, or is that a...
