logging for a branch
illumines hooter eyes

Give Joy 

We shine in our lives
when others we seek to bless,
lightening their load.

Their joy illumines our souls,
we all share the light....

Seething sorrow simmers in the marooned mind, 
permeates pain in heart plunged deep in misery. 
Divine light illumines the soul, agonies rescind, 
rousing hope weaves bliss in blessed life tapestry.

Noon colder than the melting snow
illumines the waters with grace;
even clouds won't disturb their flow...
they reflect themselves into the lake.    
Winter leaves the barren mountain,
but spring will bring flowers and warm rain....

I watch fields, as nature
Invites pastoral bliss…
Irises and oaks glow
Imbued with morn’s fresh soil;
Igniting  rural charm
In  mind’s eye . O hometown
Illumines peace … earth’s gift!

Thirst for God connect
Love holds us erect
As we did suspect
No thoughts may bisect
Joy fullness perfect

We take our chance
Softening stance
In rhythm dance
To each nuance

Thus melting
Love throbbing
Self shining

Gods sun
And we

One

I Am presence, God in heaven
Creates Christ consciousness 
Light illumines chakras seven
Melding with That oneness

Resting fear and desire
For God we do aspire
Becoming love afire

Heart’s innocence 
I Am presence

White wings fly from fingertips.
A white swan held up to the sun
illumines the eye.

Paper flowers velum vanilla
perfumed.
Cupped hands
flowering in the air.

Almost weightless,
almost real,
almost living,

when in the hand
fluttering
or blooming....

Your epicanthic folds were my undoing.
Your rosebud lips enticed.
Your morning moon-face was my awakening;
long gone now from these eyes,
but love has not hidden its face behind clouds,
or anything the sky of this world can offer.
Every silky cat illumines you....

Hatred hides in cloudy sinister mind, showers acid rain,
dissolves the hideous opaque heart of the hollow man.
Humane lamp of forgiveness illumines abyss of inert soul,
penitence purifies, limpid complete man gets divine ethos.

~

alone amidst the darkness
my heart collects the weight
facing towards an eastern point
a rusted iron gate

staring at the tree line
its distant silhouette 
a glow forms the horizon
illumines my regret

longing your affection
wishing silently
to a lonely sunrise
from a lonely me

celestial lotus       
illumines indigo skies ~
pearlescent white winter moon


fulgent faceted diamonds
radiant starlight ~
veiled and waning by morning


sunrise glimmers on the lake
dawn's paintbrush holds pastel hues ~
topaz reflections

The wind batters the fragile flower,
in a test for ultimate power.
Nature cannot afford much emotion,
that is left to human devotion.
Like the grey day that ends with a shine,
or when grapes have been turned into wine.
How dawn illumines the dark of night,
and shadows disappear in the light.
When love assumes ultimate power,
the wind will caress..the fragile flower....

Sometimes
There is too much silence
To write

Or too many motes
Frolicking in a grin of light

But at others, the urn 
Of senses overflows

(who knows?  who knows?)

But here the slick street stretches
Like a wet flame
Tasting what will be, has been

But illumines not
beginning or end

only what this pity, sweet pity

of my all little ever has been 	now? 	
transitory...

Presence

There is only Presence
a rich oneness
which is our identity
 standing and witnessing
and creating of itself 
life's many separations..
Paths of separation
of resisting and seeking
seem to veil our identity
allowing only brief tastes
of the Presence we crave
and words fail to disclose..
But the thrills on life's paths
present a window
which when cleansed
illumines our way home......

Consciousness review,
reveals the cause
of inner conflict,
between head and heart,
both standing apart,
so close, yet so far.
Ego dwells in head
and God in our heart.
Periscope vision,
illumines our mind,
with a divine beat,
suffused with bliss mists,
being God’s grace,
showered upon us,
which we can imbibe,
if we’re receptive,
granting right of way,
to throb of love.
Thus, if we be still,
voids within will fill....

It's not the blackness, that will be our fate,
This we will cry out, when the time is late.

The all-night meditations, about things,
and the surprise, when the morning bell rings.

Those who wake, with sleepy eyes and smiles,
before innocence, the world defiles.

This land of opposites, and its' extremes,
that turns out to be, much more than it seems.

They say that love, will be our saving grace,
as its' light illumines...our sacred face!...
