Contemplation

Sitting quietly
Waiting for the sun to rise
Waiting for the hour
When everything becomes clear --
Everything passes away

Contemplating you sleeping,
           I learned your anatomy
              of Goddess...
           Your purity of an angel...!

Stop, reflect, imbibe.
Fill the mind with diverse flood 
from unencumbered
smorgasbord buffet sources.
A mindful present tense tick.

when we're able to leave this plane
and exist within another sphere
where life and death are both the same?

Pause.


                 During Duress;
                           In quietness,

  From contemplation hard to pry it

Quiet living pond,
Teaming with its watered lives,
Sits in wet silence:
Ducks and the lily pad frogs,
In stilled pond contemplation:-

Answer Me

Flies past my window
As if I am a strangler
Is that the new way home?

Peers through the window panes
Of my innermost contemplation
Could that be my ignoble double?

Thinking

Thoughts pink with suspicion Hearts skipping beats like a percussion The time stopped, lost in contemplation Confusion, convention, condensation.

Premium Member Lives Long Gone

The arch and the gate at the church late on.
At dusk. The path. The birds.
The chiselled lines that tell of lives long gone
And the moss that shrouds those words.

Passion
Plunges into the vast deep waters bearing the study of life
While I stand beside its wisdom barefoot in shielded shoals of sweet
Calmness

Mother is her Name

Her vessel is empty, yet she is oxygen
Mother, is her name.
She sits in contemplation of
Tomorrow's provision
And you will never know when
Her weary soul is dying.
