Pilfered promises
Needless to my somethings
Landslide refractions
Where angels think twice to tread
And fools rush to their finish

higher heart and crown are bound by a thread
channel for direct communication 
there is no distance for lovers who’re wed
as refractions of God’s emanation

Premium Member The Refractions of Life

The spoon appears shallower in a drink
The river appears shallower than it really is
Logics and facts are to be discovered
And man with his intelligence
Will repel
The many refractions of fallacies
Beteern man and science
Between man and man
In our lives

Arent We Fools

a tiny water drop in light
reflections of love
refractions of hatred
dispersion of rage
rain bow in your
heart
you are a phenomenon
e=mc2
illuminate droplets
we only see incomplete
optical illusion viewed
from a relative angle
melanin is the primarydivision
arent we fools

angels shredding tears
an arch of colors formed
loved ones refractions

droplets atmosphere
dispersion of the sun's light
tears as waters flow

display colors of 
the spectrum of tears and light
certain circumstance

in the sky produced
an arch of colors formed
loved ones are rainbows

Premium Member The Water

Water takes the shape of any container
Like an innocent child
Refractions in water 
Look bigger and shallower
Like an illusion of the imagery world
Water absorbs any pollution
Like a stupid man
Water flows from the top to the bottom
Like the refugee
Water comes in ripples, waves, rain
Rivers, sea, lakes, and waterfalls
Like the various characters of man

Premium Member in this magical realm

simply observing waves
arising and subsiding
we feel God’s presence
within each pulse hiding

lower mind is rested
so no meanings are assigned
to play of life in motion
by soul’s eye divined

as the vital force
benign bliss magnetism 
we witness all refractions
in body-mind prism

thus as both this and that
in time our heart is thawed
our soul lotus blossoms
upon giving love our nod

Seasons

Seasons,
Perpetual refractions in the sunset of time,
Float along the flow of consciousness.
Specks of dust sometimes sparkle--
Mysterious crystals 
Bedazzling the mind's eye.
Others are dull bits of dirt,
Barely touching down 
Before they are swept away
To be discarded.
All eventually return to earth,
A miniscule portion of the whole,
Tumbling together to create life
As a new season begins...

The Happy Accident of Life

Tell me the clouds aren't hung on fishwire That it's chance should trees reach such like a spire That even with elements scrambled so dire This Earth can recover and shan't ever tire At least not in our ages of apes From a crown of thorns To a wound that gapes We keep finding depths Far deeper down In our minds and Our actions Refractions We'll drown

Premium Member Houseboat

Lucid refractions prance in this day's gloaming
Window panes sway in play to each heave and hoe
Stirred by haunting echoes of distant loons wailing
My gaze awakens in sheets that float her still to and fro

Shimmering, the surface murmurs...Take the Plunge
A primal beckoning that whispers to us each by name
Push the door, step up to the edge...Take the Lunge
Into freshwater so translucent, it hides no shame
Form: Rhyme

Hesitant Heroics

There’s a bend on the end of the rainbow
Reflecting refractions of light
Promises written on water
Holiday nights of delight
Words shadow boxing on speakers
Rebounding resounding in rhyme
Spider webs sailing on sunsets
Floating on shadows of time
Alone on the edge of tomorrow
Hands holding tight to today
Sunlight as stardust exploding
In passion to just get away
Measured in decades of moments
Fear is reluctant to pay
Form: Sonnet

Light Waves

"Light Waves"
we are bioluminescent a glimmer of hope stardust sentient isolated in our fate from and through the Sun Light waves echoes of sound refractions of once were transparent born before begun drawn back through the loop baptismal on the killshot towards the equal place the open heart of One (LadyLabyrinth / 2021)
