God within
shares our joy
feels our pain

is the veil
that blocks light

just know this
we are he
who we seek

the
simple truth
we are
painting with light
red blue green
and
a little bit of indigo
even though
we
are painting with words

There once was a girl from a grotto
Who lived with a very short motto
Live and let live
Be happy to give
Life’s joy is not winning the lotto

Premium Member Peas in a Pod

Poetry and math - two peas in a pod.
Why then do you look at me so odd?
They’re both to discover and express
The simple truth beneath the mess.

I searched long and deep my heart

All I could come up with is this simple truth

I love you, just because

Lies and Truth

Lies and truth



A lie does not become true, because of prolific repetition, 
or simply because it is sincerely believed!

As we humans are conditioned to do

If only we could honestly and respectfully say without fear of offence 

‘l simply don’t like you’

Concrete

Certain, certain be when a heart is breaking,
banish doubt and conquer the simple truth: that
love does not defer to the circumstantial
                          (nor to my logic)

Koan -A Pleiades

Kings ask of wise men while
Kids can see simple truth
Kensho shows suddenly
Keeping students up late
Knocking loudly the door
Knowledge comes in silence
Kindness will answer all

There is an ease when l am with you
The way it should be
Never an awkward silence
Just a realness and honesty

Simple Truth

Walk beyond
   no boundaries bind you,
Your limits lie
   within yourself.
Faith and love
   will light the darkness,
Embrace each day
   for time is wealth.

Paper Clips

Most people are easily bent out of shape
Like Paperclips
Because they can't hold it together
Like Paperclips
My words are weapons so I lock & load
My Paper Clips
I bet your two cents is worth less 
Than a Paperclip

Imagine

Imagine life within a realm
   Of magical mystery

Where dreams are not occurrences
   But real in all their favor

Nothing passes unobserved
   Or felt, though unexplained

A simple truth belies itself
   And life the greater gained

Why Do I Worry

Why do I worry so?
Is it my mind that punishes me as soul?
Why can’t I realize and simply live
Do I have to be a do-gooder and forever give?
I want the whole world to grasp the simple truth
That everyone is soul
But they need proof

Premium Member Truth and Man

Truth, 

if one knows it, is in reality simple, 

very simple, I might add,

however,

it gets complicated 

when...

someone who ignores it, desperately 

tries to prove, that...

he doesn't!

Unmasking the Truth

When hopes begin to crumble,
it's high time to be humble.
This virus, Mr. President, now directs your fate.
Recognize this simple truth before it is too late,
and should it grant you vigor to complete whatever task,
before you set about it, please, please, put on a mask.
