Voice

I hear a voice.
It's a muffled sound.
I hear it crying.
I start running.
I hear it becoming louder,
But quieter.
It's quiet now.
I see me.
It was me.

Drizzle of Silence

Make muddled life quieter than the rhythmic raindrop rolling euphoria on the leaf. Listen to the placid symphony of the serene soul soaking the drizzle of silence.

Quiet mode

Quiet, quieter, quietest,
in heart’s nest, we are by God blessed,
wherein the full spectrum of light,
in time bestows on us clear sight,
to which end, as our will we bend,
in vibrant stillness we ascend.

Silence Is An Art

Silence is an art
The more quieter
The more better
You can hear.

There is beauty
In everything
Even in silence
Even in darkness.

Silence speak to you
About the secrets
Of the universe
If you just observe.

Zen mode

quiet, quieter and quieter yet still
mindfully watching each stirring that arises
aided by divine magnetism heightening its bliss hum
we remain in a time dissolved peace continuum 
grateful God has steadied the flame

The Fire of our Hearts

Feeling better aren’t we,
the extra voice grows quieter. 

Do not diminish your pain, 
it comes to teach you. 

Lessons forged in the fire of our hearts
Making us stronger for those who deserve us.

Stay strong little Sister

Spider Flail

Howels pain howlin veins

Be My Valentine

A heart is never silent
just quieter at times

Some hearts far less constant
out of common tune
rhythm difficult to define

Therefore each heart is special
no two exactly alike

The nearer the match
the greater the miracle

Love~ a Harmonic treasure --

Making of Life

Life is bright, make it brighter
than the sparkling crystal star
to shine ecstasy in the inner sky.
Life is quiet, make it quieter
than leaf-cradled drop of water
to hear the soul’s serene sigh.

Symphony of the Soul

When life is quiet, I make it quieter 
than the raindrop rolling on euphoria of leaf, 
to listen to the symphony of the soul, 
drenched in the drizzle of silence.

Cracks In the Facade

Bright ,cheerful,jovial is his visage
You sense a fragile sadness
Belied by his soft smile

In  quieter mood his face relaxes
Worry lines fragment his calm
Tears threaten like raindrops

The pent up  dam now  bursts,his bulwark gone
Broken,beaten and bereft
A sad shell of a man

Open Windows

Alabaster beauty caressed delightfully. 
Excruciatingly flirtatious gentle hands, incite jubilant kisses.
        Luxuriant moans naughtily offend pedestrians.
           Quieter rumblings satiate trembling urges.
 Vanquished wellsprings xeriscape yearning’s zealousness.

It Is Not That Trite

Sand gets grayer, melting sun
Merges into setting phase
Waves slow down their run
To the quieter pace 
Gentler blows the ocean breeze
Cirrus clouds decay
Shines a metaphor of peace
In the air today
Looks like postcard type of view 
But it’s not that trite
On the premise of the few
Who can breathe the light.

Sleep

Sleep, a wonderful gift of nature
That revitalises the body 
And invigorates the mind

The silencer of a crying baby
The quieter of a whole town
The tranquilizer of a troubled mind

After the day's hard work
It is the last resort
A natural antidote for headache

A short nap in the day
Can make a huge difference

An Interesting Place

When the weight becomes too difficult to pull
I find I am relieved of the rope.
Things get quieter
But the questions are still crushing.
Lingering and lurid
They prod and peel 
The protective plastic on my mind.
I fall into myself.
An interesting place
And I know the play there.
But not so much here
On this odd earth.

I'Ve Been Hibernating For This Period

I’ve been hibernating for this period
And in my slumber, I have simply seen shadows
The music is quieter
But the lights are brighter
The lines down my face reveal my secrets
I have been hiding
Listening to jazz and feeding my frenzy
In a black shirt and broken sandals
I have been hibernating
But I promise I’m still brutally breathing

Watchtower

So we grow older it cannot be denied
and we grow to like this little life
this smaller, quieter style
less of this and none of that
and how does that suit you
with all your bits falling apart

Now look, there
on the outskirts
see the dust, rising
it's the future calling us in
our names are in its dirty mouth
our names are on its filthy list

Heartbeat Still Sounds

Heartbeat of the world still sounds,
quieter maybe but still it pounds.
She may roar in pain as if giving birth,
but can always find joy and mirth.
no despair in hearts can bear 
to cry and hands wrung saying "no Fair".
Long is the life of a universe created,
will still be alive while we are creamated.

Morning Blues

First bursts of brightness
Is not at all politeness

Trying to catch more z's
The light buzzes like bees

The louder the brightness beats
The quieter the nap fleets

Forced to make a move
My body will surely disapprove

But up, up, and away I must go
What the day brings whose to know

Journeying towards the early day I face
Morning blues cease with each new pace

Zen mode

as the false ego recedes 
and pristine presence emerges
this shell in which we dwell
invokes grace as bliss surges

resting stirrings that may arise 
slow, slower and slower yet still
motionless in each storm
we imbibe peace to heart’s fill

quieter than the void of space 
where in form we are encased
transcendent yet immanent 
no puzzles remain to be laced

Eruption of Anger

ERUPTION OF ANGER
Relationships explode in sudden seismic rupture, from volcano of anger magma of mind erupts fire, burns the shattered heart in lava of ember disdain. If touch of remorse makes the upheaval quieter, dousing the flare of fire with the torrents of tear, the scorched soul will rise from the ashes again.

Wrenna the 4th

Sandbox is rusty
The swing is covered with mold
They are so lonely

Without their bluebird
Playing and squealing on hold
Disappeared no word

Little chair’s broken
Vines withered away and brown
Hope you’ll be back ‘round

Drum beats no longer
Tambourine’s quieter than quiet
Frozen berries thawed

Mimi’s arms aching
For her Wrenna girl to hold
just don’t understand

Alonely

older, but no wiser
quieter, but no calmer
far more passionate, but not a lover
taller, but no more confident

overgrown child
who gave you the ability to... drive?
eat, think, work on your own terms
i can't believe the joke you really are

looser, but still a loser
better, but still understated
callous, but still crying
failure, but still with hope

believe it or not

Prophecy's Peril

Armageddon approaches as
Bombastic
Charismatic characters'
Daring-do
Enlarges evil's
Fissure
Grown too
Huge horror of
Islamic
Jewish and Christian
Knockout
Linking
Menacing multiple
Nukes
Onto an ancient
Prophecy as
Quieter heads
Reasonably
Seeking solutions are
Turned 
Upon by
Vituperate voices
Wailing war who wait
Xpectantly for
Young
Zealots to enflame the world.
