Double yellow lines
I sit inside a massive fog of nothingness
plays on my imaginary piano using one finger
a ditty, sun outside, sun inside, sun only sun
I feel massively and supremely untalented
Now that the amalgamation of writers, poets
dancers, trampoline ladies, and painters that
lived inside of me, has turned into a block
immovable zero
I look at a black dot ringed by a grey cloud
If I stare at this long enough, the cloud might
disappear, only it is not, it turns into a dervish
The amalgamation has fractured, and I sit on
a rowing boat on a green sea, watching gulls
white as angels fly upward into a hole in
a void, at last, there is silence, and I'm at ease
With my vastly incompetent self

The embodiment of unique sensual existence,
life is the construct of esoteric sublime elements,
suffused supremely with the aspects of devout spirit
within the transcendent trinity of heart, mind and soul.
Beneath the sensitive surface of mortal perception,
my heart resonates the silent cadence of inner intent,
modulated by the inspiring melody of awareness,
that harmonizes with the concerto of awakening.
Under the multi-layered lattice of the architect mind,
the soul at the immeasurable meditative depth,
where consciousness is the light of eternal truth,
enduringly reflects the preeminence of heavenly glow.
Beneath the serene facade of rippling feelings,
the benign mind transitorily builds sensory images
on the fleeting screen of spiritual mindfulness,
transmitted inward to set the soul on divine flight.
Released from the psychic clasp of karmic destiny,
my essence transcends the limits of time and space.
The intent to embrace the realm of perpetual peace
arouses my soul to ascent to the zenith of godliness.

(Lily, summer 2025)
Lily Bug the Mighty Pug
Lily bug the mighty pug,
All 13 months and 15 pounds of,
Just goes to show the unbridled
Power of nature
Supremely confident
Maniacally enthusiastic
Without a clue of her limits
And adorably cute.
But perhaps most importantly is a hint
Of the joy and love
That resides in the heart
Of Life, all life,
Large and small, simple and complex
Resides as part of our nature
Ready, and always eager,
To shine.

The arrival of his departure
(A numb and cruel upheaval starter)
was an emotional core rupture;
a visual goodbye to my father.
I saw his final, last inhale
that would never flow to release.
I saw his life light fade to pale
before leaving to forever peace.
In time, I joyously came to know
his essence was such a strong force,
he could bend love air to a flowing echo
and sound it when I needed him most.
I feel sure my father's echo has limits.
Souls exist in spirit realms, so echo assists
must be supremely granted gifts.
At times I feel soak in the depths his visit.

Life doesn’t feel the same, My Darling,
Deprived of your passionate love,
Each and every day aimlessly drags on,
Each and every day feels dreary and treacherous!
Days were joyfully enchanting, nights were supremely blissful,
Never realized parting was so acutely hard!
But came a time there was turbulence in
The relationship, a dark cloud covered our horizon!
My heart sank, tears uncontrollably filled my eyes,
But decision, right for both of us, needed to be taken,
although my heart shattered like a broken-winged bird's,
I stood still - not letting grief drown me miserably!
Deprived of your love - is that fully true!
Pure Love is a gift we rarely receive in a lifetime,
We still love each other…I believe, Love does not end,
Cruel fate decides the eventual direction of our path!

was born with the meaning of home running through my veins.-

Topic: Light
Suzette Prime: BORN WITH HOME’S LIGHT
A primal spark, a nascent gleam,
"Home" in the blood, a flowing
stream.
From that deep well, a radiance
springs,
A light that knowing instinct brings.
Each tendril born, a sunlit thread,
Where hearth and haven softly
spread.
No searching gaze, no fumbling quest,
This inner dawn, supremely
blessed.
It paints the world in hues so clear,
Dispelling doubt, erasing fear.
Suzette Prime, where light takes
hold,
A story in the veins unfolds.

“feeling not thinking, soul with love linking ~
we attained God consciousness unblinking”
In the awareness anchorage of the mundane mind,
detached from the ephemeral principled roots
by the dislodging drive of sequential dreary desires,
untamed instincts envelope the psychic realm.
As the needle of perception compass breaks down,
the vortex of emotions drags the reflective mind
into the transitory tide of the entrancing times,
the inner voice of conscience echoes unheard.
The embodiment of unique sensual existence,
life is the construct of esoteric sublime elements,
suffused supremely with heavenly essence of love
within the benevolent sanctum of the harmonic heart.
Beneath the serene surface of fond feelings,
the benign mind transitorily builds sensory images
on the fleeting screen of empathic mindfulness
that persists untransformed to portray affable emotion.
Under the multi-layered receptive stratum of awareness,
soul resides at the inner meditative depth of feeling,
where godly consciousness is the light of eternal truth,
reflecting enduringly the aura of bliss with divine glow.

Sitting in solitude,
Tuning into tunes quiet as morning,
Inhaling wind-blown fragrant lilac,
Listening to foreign jelled voice of reason,
Envisioning expanse of horizon,
Thinking of lateral stance,
Seeing through lens kaleidoscopic,
Feeling feathery touch of love,
Sipping from gratitude's silvery cup,
Sifting through weights gone weightless,
Stretching with new concept of forgiveness,
Joy became a friendly royal blue bird -
Friendlier still, it perched upon your windowsill,
You looked, you saw, you understood.
Capture your moment supremely pure.

Found herself long in the tooth
Burdened with responsibilities
As the clock kept ticking
Being hospitable began to wane
Regardless of hope keeping in touch
Working harder had become symbolic
For she had a negligible threshold
That supremely played a crucial part
A part in soaking all the fitness up
Until she lost the spiritedness
Did all she accessed for the fruits
Bore all the affliction of misfortune
Spoke many languages to herself
Walked long miles wall-to-wall
But couldn't control her fate
This heightened sensivity was a sword
Double-edged through the feelings
At times sympathy was highly valuable
The blues discerned from the seeds
The high sensitivity to others' emotions
Amid such grief, she's into being mellow
Avoided and crossed numerous arrows
The Omniscient providing for her with pillow
Here comes the relief, there goes the sorrows
Behold, it's time for the land to remain fallow

When dawn drifts into enchanted meadows…
…I’m awakened by triumphant morning shows
radiating divine Artist’s pose
supremely perfect nature can’t oppose
along firmament’s celestial glows.
When dawn drifts into enchanted meadows…
…my soul delights in haven of fellowship that does expose
gracious goodness of God* which I chose
basking under vibrant hope, surmounting woes
while communing with Him, intimately close.
When dawn drifts into enchanted meadows…
…I see myself midst floral terraces of rose and aloes
enjoying paradise-wellness where liberty goes
yon serenity and bliss can enclose
grateful to the Creator that His omnipotence my faith knows.
When dawn drifts into enchanted meadows…
…my spirit clamors for revival, arose
from rest of comforting night’s repose
to exalt the Lord with sincere praise, never verbose
inspired by His jubilant love, sans dark shadows.
*Psalms 34:8 O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him.

Until the world know
Until the world knows, I will continue to praise my king.
Until the world knows, my purpose is not fulfilled.
Until the world knows that there is a Risen king,
Until the world knows that Jesus paid the price for our sins,
Until the world knows the gospel commission I must bring,
Until the world knows that they must commit their life to the saving King,
Until the world knows, we were created to give glory to Him.
Until the world knows, Satan is a valiant foe.
Until the world knows in me, they must see Him.
Yes, until the world knows forever, the salvation anthem I will sing.
Until the world knows and makes their decision for or against Prince Emmanuel,
Until the world knows His coming won't be ushered in.
Until the world knows, this world will never come to an end.
Until the world, knows eternity with our King, we won't spend.
When everyone knows Jesus, he will reign supremely.

Humanity still struggles to comprehend
That all life on earth is for us to tend
We must cease our pillaging of this great land
Instead, care for all life as it was planned
We are the shepherds of the plane
Our destructive behaviour is beyond insane
There’s a reason we are the most evolved
Ain’t a problem for us that can’t be solved
Supremely created by our father above
Our little hearts are capable of so much love
Solely responsible for the earth’s almighty pain
We are the shepherds of the plane
A golden age is upon us; soon we’ll understand
Back to nature we are going; immense change is at hand
Our soul vibration will soon increase
As we stand on the precipice of wondrous peace
New forests will emerge, and greenery will flourish
A bountiful world to thrive and nourish
Water’s will sparkle once more for Mother Earth
A new beginning is at hand, a welcome rebirth
We are the shepherds of this great plane
The devil grips us no more; we’ve broken the chain
Freed from the shackles of our crippling fears
Together, we weep in a sea of glorious tears

When I get home and open the doors,
our little dog comes trotting to me
on his tippety tappety leathery paws.
He jumps so madly up and down.
I meet a greeting supremely happy
from our welcoming black and white clown.
All the time I was out he was sleepily waiting
Now, he expresses his doggiest glee.
Our little doggie is celebrating.
When I get home and open the doors,
I meet a greeting supremely happy.
Our little doggie is celebrating.
