O snowdrop
When you flower,can Spring be far behind?

all is
left hidden-
the poetic

more
easy
to discern-
buried within

Lanterne paraphrase sequence After Leopardi
HEAVENLY KISS XL1
My dynamic paraphrase translation excerpt of one of Quirinus Kulhmann's (A Christian sonneteer) series depicting the union of the soul with Christ
A few grammes of youthfulness
Ripples of laughter
A mixture of common sense
One glass of good looks
A pint of humour
Bouquets of
Love !
Paraphrase from a church recipe booklet of the early 1900's
Rare talent,born in Kinross
His early death,poetry's loss;
To God he gave all his praise,
Famed now for his verse paraphrase,
A legacy on which we all may gaze.

[paraphrase of a Svan folk song]
Tamar's mother said, "Tamar,
You were born fully grown.
Child, I saw you in a dream
I looked into the starlit sky and saw
That you were the village
And you were the world."
[paraphrase of a Svan folksong]
I, I am Queen Tamar
I raised myself to Heaven
I dug up a barren mountain
I left only a deep hole
I put the sword to Constantinople
I drove them into the sea
I made their lands my lands.
passive quiet still
where reflections lie
to wander,to dream
digress and mystify
then discover and discern
the rudiments of grace
with exegesis rather than
eisegesis or paraphrase
a doctrine from macro
to micro....conceived
Hangovers are a back-tax on fun.
To paraphrase T.S. Eliot:
"Can last night just belong to last night?”
I’m not thinking about sins and penance
or making any bound-for-failure resolutions.
I’m giving myself a mental health break.

A paraphrase is shadow's child,
slinking in hallway white tiled.
It wears the shape, fills not the skin,
Echoes of fullness are lost within.
It carries a bag of phrases worn,
Tired entrails of the still-born.
A life, once full, is now gone.
With no meaning counted on.
Shem
Saw
Spirit
Deep darkness
And light all fighting
To know how the cosmos was made
To know our hope in our liberation in the end
This gnosis was given by Derdekeas, who is Christ the son of Light, for those lost
Inspired by the Gnostic text The Paraphrase of Shem
I
God's spirit is substance, more than bones & bodies
II
Spiritual and spirit do not mean "minus any bodies"
III
The spiritual body is very light. And more light
IV
Speaking in tongues doesn't mean "babbling in church"
V
Speaking in 'tongues' is speaking languages.
Jesus can take a melted mess of human corrosion and squeegy it up... form us into a functioning human being with structure and strength; a pillar of hope for others and ourself.
Encourage one another as Christ encourages us....
Service in Christ, Faith and Works is a winning combination!!
Emotion & feelings,active, no longer passing fads of intervening years. A latter day passion,now fading from view along the different path I now stride. Hastened by love,poignant,as a moth to a flame to paraphrase a truth. Willing to take a risk,each aspect leaves its mark as sunlight upon the mundane.
To paraphrase the greatest of masters -
You may cast a stone
if you have no sin.
And if you say you have no sin?
Thus you have no need of healing.

"If you desire healing,
let yourself fall ill
let yourself fall ill."
- Jalaluddin Rumi
What say you
now..
what likeness
do you display today..
what image
do you contrive..
which trademark
will you leave
for others to ponder-
will it be tempered
by love or
merely
a paraphrase
of the truth
which you so carefully
conceal..
I'm intrigued
I only ask..
is there someone real
behind that mask?
Today’s blessing is about our children
and how time with them goes by so fast…
as I paraphrase the words of James M. Barrie
and a bit of wishful thinking…taken from the past.
Once you read the words…smile
as you let them rest upon your shoulder:
If we never put our babies to bed
they can’t wake up another day older.
Mara loves to steal from others
A skill well learned with no druthers
Paraphrase one word or two,
Hoping no one has a clue
Her poems formed from another's
Mara cannot hide behind her word crime
And pretending to, is a waste of time
Poems and words can be traced,
to a new plagiarism case
She needs to stop and find a new pastime
Humble stirrings of our spheres,flowers of inner feelings in a retrospective of words,made now,for the moment.From heart to pen,to heart.Inner & outer thoughts this capacity to evoke,soul to soul.Roses from the flush of youth,petal by petal the unconscious to impart.Moving images of the intellect,intangible yet speechless,felt &seen,said sounds to paraphrase the resonance of truth.
May we be blessed to understand
The words of Hubert Reeves…
a famous Canadian Astrophysicist…
allow me paraphrase what he believes:
We are a most insane species…
(he writes so beautifully)
we worships invisible gods
while destroying a nature we can see…
Unaware that the nature we’re destroying…
(so indiscriminately)
is the very God we’re worshiping…
the one we cannot see.

The answer all our prayers
Awaits us in the House of Dreams
There will find that life's leaden
metal has been turned into gold(to paraphrase Omar Khayan)
Brothers and sisters out there in the darkness
Let's leave the weight of reality behind us for now
Enter into realms of imagination
Yes, the world is still the world
Bur can survive in it
If we spend some time
IN THE HOUSE OF DREAMS
