True origin of our souls....

Every year, sans celebratory birthday hat
She acknowledges the years past.
She sees her family on the other side of the grated glass.
And waves at them with manacled wrists....

     Will acknowledge before the angels of God
 But whoever denies me before others

each touch friction
as two objects rub
with ego assigning meaning
refracting light pristine white

unvoiced emotes
ink the vast void
which acknowledges our gifts
manifesting sunshine and rain

Your eyes are bright and sparkling
The lines above them drawn as if by an artist 
Matching the size 


No one would have doubted
None could have proved otherwise
No more in the eyes of the beholder
But all acknowledges it
You are awesomely beautiful...

NEW   BOY



New boy on the block
Walk home from bus
Driver hardly acknowledges my ticket
Beeps it condescendingly
I walk past the gated development 
Security guard gradually grudgingly
Learns to nod in my direction
Another six months and he smiles...

Molecular structures encapsulate
The druids fall beneath the sky 
Yaldaboath's tongue at unstable pace
For useless scapegoat ideologies burnt in smoke.
Faith, if i may, run away.
The metal maid acknowledges its use as a weapon for exotic particles in roots....

Is hope the rainbow for our disappointments? 
Is that light, the comfort within the storm? 
Or the guarantee of the sun"s faithful return? 
Hope feeds both the mind and the body. 
The belief in it keeps one afloat
Hope acknowledges current negativity, 
     while forecasting future positives....

Serpent's Hand
Yaldaboath's tongue
The druids fall beneath the sky
Molecular structures encapsulate exotic roots.
From the tears of broken gods.
Feet, if i may, run away
The bells ring silent await my day.
Defeated by the summer haze.
The escape goat acknowledges its use as a weapon 
For useless ideologies dead in smoke....

Thorn piercing blood from stem 
to make rose ever red 
blossoms it to attract 
every eye and win all heart in process 

The pain and suffering of thorn 
never goes in vain 
despite fables spread across 
to undermine the supreme sacrifice 

Red rose truly acknowledges 
by carrying toughness inside 
and fragrance outside 
to reach one and all....

Intelligent non-attachment
acknowledges the beauty
in this relentless fabulous
fragile fleeting flow of life.

Seek by commitment
the many gifts from heaven,
concealed in the recesses
of everyone's being.

Drink only from the cup
of perpetual durance virtuous pleasure,
to celebrate every time you decide
to make brighter your already bright light....

SHORT CUTS

(*with apologies to Albert Einstein}

The tonsorial master said trim it
the dunce in the chair shouted skin it
the difference in coif
like the difference in thought
is that genius acknowledges limit*

The Second person seems to be a safer place to hide,
One can always deny the allegation from behind,
Yet second persons seem to follow much too near,
And point the accusations to the marrow.

First person's much more abrupt and "in your face",
Acknowledges the age spot growing near the ear,
But age spots aren't so rare, you know,
I see so many everwhere I go....

Here comes the Judge
All dressed in black
not taking any prisoners
nor even any slack

He walks in the room
With his head hung high
He acknowledges everyone
And no one passes Him by

When he sits behind his desk
With his gavel in his hand
He's ready to judge every woman
Every child and every man

As the call goes out
In which all has heard
Every one rises
Cause here comes the judge....

The eyes are bright and sparkling
Always inviting and comely
The lines above them drawn as if by an artist 
Marching the size 
And all things in place and perfect

Shapes and forms and sizes
Working as one
Making a perfect picture
And representing you

No one would have doubted
None could have proved otherwise
No more in the eyes of the beholder
But all acknowledges it
You are awesomely beautiful...

February fourteenth, is not rare for love true to be shared.
In the middle ages they believe to wear your heart on your sleeve.
It could be said, this is the day for the most brilliant of colors red. 
A special romantic person acknowledges you this day is most certain.
A day for love, in everyway is to be in full display on this glorious day.
Acceptance at a request, Be MY Valentine, is one of loves greatest conquest....

Life on a cellular and corporeal level seems to be
A relationship of complex interdependence
Where each living unit acknowledges a central theme
And concedes that theme to be more important than itself 

This principle of functioning interdependence
Expresses the “will” of a conglomerate yet separate living organism

Should we assume this general principle stops with us
Merely because we no longer have a “safe” detached vantage point...

The question is not whether education is the key,
but rather if we know the pathway to the door.  

Ignorance does not inform us of the ways and means,
but education does so indeed inform and acknowledges

that there are options and roadways unique to the
destiny we seek.  When very young, my kids were often 

reminded by me to pursue an education with the                            
understanding that education was its own reward.

I walk into the crowd as if I belong
No one acknowledges me audibly
A few looks and nods my way
Are the only affirmation of this existence

Free laughs and joking are around me
Swirling like a wind devil
The friendship bounces off quickly
Tears fall on the inside, no one sees

I laugh when the boys joke 
But I am not really in the group
Waiting for the day to be free
Wings spread soaring high

Independent from this group
Leading my own life.......
