In simple wordsContemplating as a thinker thinking,
self-appraising rate of our vibration,
we dwell not in awareness unblinking
but ego distanced from God’s creation.
It’s not about knowing but becoming,
whilst resting in tranquil, blissful repose,
synced with the gong of Om within drumming,
witnessing how we so metamorphose.
If we see God as another object,
flawed and deluded is our perception
but with ego dropped, bliss...

So spake simple SimonShaped from earth’s crust, we are but dust,
yet our pulse mirrors God’s heartbeat,
enlivened by magnetic heat,
borne by His breath, loving and just.
Why then succumb to thrust of lust,
fleeting cravings doomed to deplete,
leaving us feeling incomplete,
love of God unable to trust?
Know that we are spirit not form.
Thoughts orbit cravings of ego,
which ebbs off when desires recede.
Staid...

For Sweet Morrow's SongEach moonlit walk, each starlight gaze
On nights that knew such carefree days
Each whispered thrill on breezed romance
The passion of another chance
Each salted spray of ocean’s mist

Simple WishI think it would be really neat
to have suction cups for feet,
I would not be limited, anymore,
to walking only on the floor.
Summer, Winter, Spring and Fall,
I'd stroll the ceiling and the wall.
Everyone would fall in love
with me as I look down from above,
knowing I will never drop,
as my feet loudly pop, pop, pop....

Simple WordA simple word –
Softly spoken,
Stilled my heart
Left me broken
A single breath –
Such destruction,
Instant death
One deduction
Goodbye.

Waiting at the bus stopa bobble hat fellow rumbles along
sharp turns behind me - hello -
but reaches up to the wall
grabs an apple 80 percent intact
and hobbles away again
a few seconds later he's back again
turns behind me, bends low
and picks up the soggy, abandoned
box of donuts
two inside remaining
successful mission
he wobbles away...

FULLER LIVING"Im not doing this because you told me to
Im doing this because I feel sorry for you"
No, you don't.
You want love.
You want acceptance.
You're scared it isn't real
Scrapes and bare bones wilting in your soul
Waiting for your joy to steal
No home to call your own
The eyes are windows to a world inside
You...

A stamp, bought and paid for, is like a receipt
And if stuck on an envelope makes it complete
To start its journey, with the recipient to meet
But never quite a passport, if sent international
Accepted only in USA territories, as is rational
So many designs, as a picture or even a symbol
It will be processed by hand, and...

The simple truth floats like a cloud of mist in my mind and yoursThe simple truth floats like a cloud of mist in my mind and yours,
you don't know how to do this, and your silence sings of ignorance,
and you can't do many other useful things, for they are like stars too far away,
it's the fault of the way you were raised, a thread of destiny in the...

In a flood of light, brighter than sunlight.
But when I opened my eyes
It was just the street lamp....

The Maturation of Simple ThoughtsSwirling words from an infinite field,
Caught and thought in a moment of time.
Knowing not their future or their yield,
Their full potential may be sublime.
Allow yourself a time to reflect,
Give your thoughts the freedom to expand.
It won’t take long for them to connect,
Piece them together the best that you can.
For simple thoughts to be understood,
Whether written...

It's simple to be happy, but it's hard to be simpleIt's simple to be happy, but it's hard to be simple,
like a star that ignites in the night sky without knowing its own fire,
for happiness comes like a breeze of wind in the middle of summer,
but simplicity is a deep mystery, like a labyrinth of mirrors where you search for yourself.
In the pursuit of simplicity,...
