As the sunrises forth to the mid-day sun
Compares my lady to the untamed

Right kind should always be obtaining,
Of training not requiring any straining;

Never expired;
Or from must  always be abstaining.

I question their word on this doubtful assertion,
For it clearly would show God is partial to some
Requiring from others, more convincing coercion.

Having roots in dissatisfaction 
Requiring movement from here to there
Failing to see God everywhere

Embark

I try to reach profundity
but all around make fun of me
for living life with simpler goals
like learning and tranquility.

So now I'm leaving all I've got 
to quest for my own Camelot.
Requiring only books and pen
I'm setting off to find my spot.

The path being pathless, like the roots of a tree, seeking nourishment from the source, requiring merely heart’s burning yearning plunging into the vibrant void, trusting in God alone, walking upon the path. 18-February-2022

Premium Member Zen mode

absolute perfection of spirit 
trickles into organic form 
soul mindfully aligns 
with the source
ascent is assured
what matters is time
requiring repeated rebirth
until we lay to rest all cravings 

thus stillness is the remedy
and silence the healing balm
Form: Didactic

Premium Member Earth life purpose

where love is diluted
karma arises
requiring resolution
in this life or the next

the earth entity
by repeated immersion
is slowly love enabled
in time recognising oneness

as wisdom dawns
souls look at spirit not form
all held by a common thread
the heartbeat of God

Not So Remote

a sestet

Looking for that place beyond his memory, 
he scans time and space within the room's debris 
waiving the embrace requiring energy.
Twisting in the settee, he finds it in his lap 
clicking uselessly  - alas! it has no zap 
Lacking battery!  how will he take his nap?

Premium Member for a breath of fresh air

intent by itself is action complete
requiring no portrayal in space-time
but if we wish to live through each bliss beat
and feel each nuance of love’s sublime chime
we must don a form and conjure a rhyme
in mood and mode joyous celebration 
whilst self-aware poised in meditation

Premium Member Go With God

Sent out with a mission;
Embraced with a assignment;

Running through the forest;
Tracking through the valley;

Discovering a boarded cave;
Traversed through a tunnel;

Stumbling upon a hilly place;
Climbing a mountain;

Feeling a lot like a race;
Requiring a ton of grace.

Premium Member Zen mode

flowing with ease, mode embrace and release
consciousness leaves behind no residue
free from desire, no demons to appease
heart delights as bliss beats within renew
wherein each rapture hue is felt as new
requiring then thus nothing to be done
resplendent in our light like yonder sun
