in your sacred moments of surrender you relinquished your natural instincts to angel’s silver shroud with joyous turquoise tears and when again you soared ~ you carried dad with you ~ to the other side of the skies as the sun bestowed a halo upon the celebration of ~~~ONENESS~~~ * o xOx ooOoo xxXOXxx oo-LOVE-oo xxxXXXXxxx ~ooOOOoo~ ~~xOx~~

Premium MemberShape Shifting Soul

The universal, eternal Atman, the endless soul
Resides in me as my breath, and makes me a single whole.
As the breath of the almighty, it is born without sin.
It drives, as a life changer, the physique it enters in.

When my physique is devoured by the detrimental death
My soul takes flight, and in a new life after, it takes birth.
With no color, form, shape, taste, or odor in its pure form
Its nature shifts to a flower, bird, or beast with its norm.

Commanding and demanding, approaching and reproaching
With peaceful, pleasant consciousness and conscience, heart-broaching
Within physical flesh, bones, and veins like blood, it would flow.
When and to which universe it would fly, I do not know.

Premium MemberShape-Shifting Soul

Contest Line of Inquiry:
"Here I am in human form, but it was not always quite so;
 Earth is not the only planet  I’ve been to through past life 
 regressions, I definitely know."

From the white light of death
as we take our last breath,
our human Souls emerge.
By nanosecond surge,
transformed, like butterflies-
with mystic wings, each flies
back home into God's Light-
shape-shifting on our flight.
From Earth's cocoon, we lift
to our awarded gift.

Be it Eternal Life,
free from mortal strife;
or made to live again-
in flesh once more, and then-
shape-shifting, growing whole
through purity of Soul.
Soon feel we've lived before
upon a distant shore.
Therefore, Soul journeys go
how God directs their flow.

Premium MemberWith All My Heart

 
I love you with all my heart and my soul There is not a day that I do not cry for this love lost to dark death I have asked the air every day but it is silent as your tomb I go so often with red roses like the ones you used to give to me. Oh, I am lost in tears *


Premium MemberI Am a Christmas Tree

 
* I am Christmas in a fir tree, I was born wild, in a boreal forest. And I never imagined, that I would end up lit up, my branches holding decorations. I was about strength and about courage, a river flowed past me since I was a young. Now, I am tranquility and serenity in my death, a symbol of Christmas, twinkling in the living room. My branches like a quiet violin crying, you can hear them falling I gave to life all the soul I had in me, all these years, trembling in the wind, the sun, the rain and snow. My reward for being majestic is my death ... how cruel! I rested under the snow and placed on a cloak of pure white beauty, then ... in the Spring my roots felt the black earth and I dug deeper.

Look, Look Here I stand next to clear running stream that feeds my leaves and mighty trunk. A strong oak that still is young and growing until cut chopped purposely to build a cross a rugged cross roughly hewn out for my creator to be crucified how I wept when He was nailed then He d i e d W v s e d y r o s a e F e m o t

Grief - Visual Vertical Verse
 
    anguish       torment
  mourning       death
  unspoken       love
   weeping        wail
     always        pain

Premium MemberMaster's Feathered Quill

I am just a white feathered quill, my master’s only instrument. I write every one of his thoughts until death lies still. We've been together through every sunrise and rain of dreams. In his hand I write prose and poetry in a metaphoric style, Until he tires and rests lays me down for a while. Each moment is a holy pact as verses become new glitters of life---that we remain bound together until I run out of black ink. For he's the main artist and I… time’s quill. Both of us have lines to sew. We are a D U E T //iii\\

leaves talking like friends

                                           as
                            they
               free
fall

a spiritual wind kisses them red

                                                    and
                                    squirrels
                        scurry
            under
them

collecting acorns, dusting an earthen shelf.

                                 leaves
                              softly land
                            and are raked
                      into a great gathering
                   huddled in the autumn air
              leaves talking about life and death

Premium MemberCreation - the Star of David

~Creation~ (Star of David) God Is the Creator He made the whole Universe and formed man The Bible doesn't explain where God just came from But it says clear that He was always there This is a mystery to me too But I just believe, accept God created all just perfect In fact made us good and pure Adam and Eve had wonderful lives They ruled over everything God made Adam just didn't have to work for a living Didn't face pain or death Till both did sin After that It was Hell Dorian Petersen Potter aka ladydp2000 copyright@2010

Premium MemberVows To My True Love

Like the smallest intake of air; I deserve not. Like a fantasy and dream of a woman to have, honor, cherish and love till death; I deserve not. But God has been so good to me, even through the sins amongst my internal image that I've committed several times over. Confessions after confessions after confessions, and yet, I'm breathing in an abundance of air and I've been blessed with a woman that's greater than any fantasy and dream of many dreams. Thank you Father for blessing me...(sigh) Thank you.
