Wisdom

your humble nature
Dreams and visions proved immortal
Songs of imagined peace play in fields of strawberries...

The waves are calm, it's the feeling i crave 
the heat of the sun washing away my defeat 
And all the hard things of life just fall
Our time at the beach is encompassed in rhyme...

they constructed the sphere
their they'd settle
their scores
it encompassed the ring
men against men
the finality of difference
the relevance of it's making
created by the need of solution!...

All encompassed was my fear
Such consternation knew me well
A predeliction forced a tear
As apathy tolled alarm bell
With reverence I heard that chime
Unearthliness the peels rhyme
As condemnation fell...

In a meadow encompassed by death
a solitary rose blooms
the only one left
turned silver by the moon

After the sun begins to rise
the morning glistening with dew
the ruby petals break their ties
its departure darkening the worldly view...

The warmth
Of love's invite
Encompassed my desire,
In two soft whispered words of love,
Be mine !

   "A Spiritual Sojourn"




sheer white wings pivoted dreaming soul to pure Throne of Grace
captivated by pink cotton candy clouds to gaze beauty
a spiritual sojourn encompassed taste of Divine Love.

I am encompassed 
creativity stricken 
now decompose not blinded 
what is the last line dead letters
Blank white paper but no characters
Clouded mind unwinds
Creativity died

In mine mental block

I’m about to explode
Can’t take it anymore
I look around and I’m surrounded by a mass of people I can’t stand
All the stories about all the whores
All the guys just looking to score
I am encompassed by immaturity
Is there any innocence? Any purity?...

Mystery and marvel
A world once vast and unexplored
Encompassed in technology
Held in the palm of one’s hand

The realm of unanswered questions
Dwarfed by instantaneous answers
As fingers glide across the screen
Like skaters confident of the next move...

I fell upon a weakened soul
Amidst a war and not at home
I cleansed him gently and prayed 
Heal this soul so tattered and frayed
The angels came and showered him
With wings of white life seemed so dim
Encompassed by the this selfless act
He rose again and that’s a fact...

Listen to poem:

As I
slumber, 
a dream encumber,
wakefulness denied
in fitfulness.
What be changed
when I awake
from subconsciousness?
'tis the dreams
forgotten
that matters
to the deaf, blind
unfeeling mind
within,
matters to the within
of things
encompassed in:
As I, Dream
I am....

encompassed in ivory rhapsody
she craves affection from mankind's
transgressions 

though she's hidden, she's 
protected from life's perpetual
spasms of disregard

~ cloaked in sheets of exaggerated obscurity ~

encompassed
in the last days 
of summer

i eavesdrop
on the ocean's whisper
your voice carried
in its sighs

your caress
in its waves
as i undress

seduction
within its salty spray
as i bathe
in drops 
of your scent

the horizon
blushed
in tones
of me
beneath
this memory...

In the dark of night
The sea is black
The only light
From the lighthouse stack

All the sea’s creatures
Below the water line
The life on the beaches
Where the sand is so fine

Live as one being
Encompassed by dark
One eye all seeing
Wild ocean park.

MODERN MIND

REVERENCE nor APATHY
causes human CONDEMNATION.
For surely it’s not empathy
generating CONSTERNATION.
Sneakily ENCOMPASSED is a mistress
with no CONSCIENCE
that makes violence a PREDILECTION
of our human thought SELECTION

With REVERENCE he approached the sacred ground 
ENCOMPASSED by a haughty sense of pride,
Content in knowing he was heaven-bound,
That certain PREDILICTION, not denied;
CONSTERNATION showed at once, he could see 
CONDEMNATION from above, then APATHY;
UNEARTHLINESS a practice he’d not tried.

worry encompassed my mind
             and the  c a r e l e s s  nature of its 
dread tried to erase my sight-
     I am forever dusk at dawn…
                              seeing sights I wish were unseen.

Her smile was like a ray of sun piercing through a clouded sky 
Her laugh encompassed our hearts mending the wounds left by yesterday 
Her eyes sparkled like the stars with joy, intelligence, and love
Her touch brought us comfort
Her words brought laughter and light
Her memory will remain within our hearts just of sight...
