Stepping Out of the Grave

You have to be immortal
to placate the gods

Time reaffirming
all memory of

Creation, destruction,
eternity looms

For those who believe
—appeasement exhumes

Forward

If I receive a forward
That’s political or, worse,
Pertaining to religion
My response is rather terse:

By sending me such messages
(In case you couldn’t tell),
You’re reaffirming that you do not
Know me very well.

Rejuvenation

From banishing all nighttime fears
My inner goddess awakens
Suffused in dawn’s golden, haloed ray
Lauds homage to the primeval code
Reaffirming and rejuvenating once more
Charged to accomplish all that a new day brings

The River

Flowing ceaselessly with power and purpose,
Touching countless lives and no two in the same way,
With power enough to end life and more often reaffirming, cleansing life,
A constant tension overshadowing a peaceful flow,
I sit beside the river and see myself reflected within.

Premium Member More Vs Less

Ate less today –
felt stronger
and healthier

worked smarter – 
while doing less seeming
to accomplish more

ignored many shallow
acquaintances...giving extra
time for deeper more meaningful
relationship with a carefully
chosen few

reaffirming to my mind
that only Love
needs no compromising....


Divine Duty

D-ivine duty given by God
A-ims to teach you how to obey; 
N-eglect not your solemn task to give God no dismay.

O-pen your heart to divine duty, 
C-omplete the race set by the Father; 
H-e expects humility from you, 
A-fter reaffirming your swear.
V-ow that you have made is truly sacred or holy; 
E-arly January seventh Sunday, fulfill your divine duty.

Premium Member The Moon and the Stars

The stars were twinkling
as the moon danced
sending beaming rays
to float over the earth.

Casting shadows over all
in the still of the night.
We lay entwined
fingers wandering southwards.

Our breath hot and passionate
as we danced the age old dance.
Reaffirming our love as
slowly we rose to climax.

By the river reflecting
the majesty of the sky.
Adding poignancy
to our deep abiding love

Divinity of Self

Beyond every question…
God is the answer
filling in the gaps of our imperfection
offering hope in the face of despair
light to shine through the darkness
and promise
when abandonment is all we feel
lifting the burden that covers our greatness
reaffirming our choices
strengthening our wills on the forge of His power
unblocking the final entryway
—to ourselves divine

Silence

The last war was fought
after our collective minds
opened to silence.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ inspired from "The Last War" by Ana Menendez
                                   and the following quote from her book:
                                   "Men at war always talk about the noise, as if by reaffirming
                                   the bank and flare of it, they might skirt the hole of
                                   lasting silence."

Premium Member Transmutation

we woke up early one morn, ego shorn
it felt as though we were in form reborn

nodes within stirred, boundaries blurred
our head and heart, with love concurred

let me be in the heavens, where bells sound
calming energies, can’t hear my heart pound

I affirm it is nirvana, here within all knowing                  
reaffirming our love, one that keeps growing

a promise kept by me, with all of my devotion
quenched and non-discreet, infinite emotion
