Soulful Poems

Premium MemberOur Effervescence

In the darkest of shadows
where deaths distress throes
where haboob cold winds blow
sandstorms one only knows
and where the heart’s a swindler,
a flame needs its kindler
The force of darkness ends
as sparking awareness mends
As the sun responds with heat
at dawn's rising we greet
Gratify light and energy
ratify our source of synergy
Life’s thriving in Amazonia
since days of Babylonia 
Goddess Flora’s

The Divine Seed - A heart-touching poem on the soul’s origin from the Supreme

In silence where no echoes roam,
Before the stars were carved in dome,
Before the seas had learned to swell,
There stirred a Light no tongue could tell.

Not born of flesh, nor bound by clay,
Nor measured in the light of day—
The soul emerged, so pure, so still,
Breathed from the depths of Heaven’s will.

A whisper from the Heart Divine,

The Keeper of the Circle

I do not rule with iron hand,
but with the rhythm of sacred sand—
each grain a word, each line a sign,
where order breathes and hearts align.

Before the lesson dares to start,
I plant the law with quiet art:
Not carved in stone, but shaped in grace—
a whispered guide, a steady place.

I walk not tall with voice raised high,
but

Premium MemberThe Maturation of Soulful Thoughts II

Buried in the depths of my soul is the unrealized hope of a full explanation
Covered over by shovels full of doubt and thoughts regressed
Brilliance which lost its edge from lack of use lies in a state of degradation

Can hope with its own will stir once again the creative mind
Bringing forth seeds of thoughts that demand

She Was Made of More

She wasn’t just beautiful—
she was the pause between two heartbeats,
the way the moonlight lands softly
on a world too harsh for light.

Her eyes held galaxies,
but not the loud, burning kind—
the quiet ones,
where stars learn to listen
before they shine.

Her smile wasn’t just a curve—
it was a promise,
a soft unraveling of every storm
I’d ever carried.

She spoke in silences
that

Soulful friendship

A friendship is a bond...
A deeper connection of two souls...
A person who is always there to answer a call
Support, listen and advice
A shoulder to cry on...
There to lean on...


A friendship means continuous unconditional love, support, laughter and memories...

Most of all...  accept you just as you are. 

A journey not to walk alone.

"Hey, feelin' good was good enough for me, good enough for me and my Bobby McGee"  ... Kris Kristofferson and Fred Foster

A grinning October moon bore witness to the quickness of desires
coiling soul-skin-insistent in a woman-girl and her own, Bobby McGee. 
Two souls, just met ~ Bobby roamed, she lived in her parent's home

Food for the Soul

FOOD FOR THE SOUL!!!  


Food, is it when the  of a Man is inserted into the  of a Woman, with the moist release from the longing loins of the Bodies, aching to meet for that, satisfaction. Is that Food? 
Food to the Soul.

Food, is it the legumes that are cooked together, in

Premium MemberThe Bittersweet Soulful Journey Beyond Time

The old Grim Reaper, everlasting gate keeper
Lies waiting like a cannibal ‘round the bend,
For every kind of soul turning this life frigid cold 
On the other side of memories, family and friends.

While praying to our gods and hoping against all odds
To feel, touch and smell the scent of rose, 
Beyond this life full of wrong

Mulligatawny - Poetry Soup

Mulligatawny, soup for you,
Uniquely, peppered, seasoned through,
Lots of ingredients, we might use,
Lentils, a mustard seed or two, 
Interesting flavours, we might choose,
Garlic, chillies, tamarind too,
Adapting, finding, something new,
Trial and error, tastes good, it's true,
Always learning, that's what we do,
Warming, nourishing, filling too,
North, South, East, West, the whole world through,
Your soulful bowl, of poet's stew.

Premium MemberLaces And Soulful Paces

like opposite shoe sides, tightly secured together
meeting each other’s needful strides, two different species 
making sure-footed, secure bow-ties – though truth seldom in
mating’s many polished, too often only briefly

Premium MemberSoulful whispers

wherefrom arises the urge to share
with fellow souls who care to pair
the cry of our heart emoting pure joy
born of innocence that is never coy

for far too long we have been confined
stuporous awareness not with love aligned
but now recognising that freedom is at stake
we remain by day and night always awake
