The Path Poems

On the Path

slowly we evolve 
blinking within universes 
moving forward solve
facing ourselves in mirrors 
knowingness sees then stands deep 

nothing becomes time
matter meaningless messy
we sing songs as chime 
when awakening to truth
egos escape shiver shake 

let go forgiving 
untangle own threads and dread
climb green trees to see
eclipses giving clarity
on the path with sanity

A Journey Without A Goal

(“Rainbow Body” detail, 2018, original encaustic)

A Journey Without A Goal

The path to enlightenment is a wondrous 
And delightfully paradoxical thing!
It is complex and yet simple,
Endless and yet immediate.

The problem is it is never us who becomes enlightened,
Since enlightenment is a reunification
With what has never been divided,
And so the journey then becomes nothing but a dream.

Learning On The Path Of Life

Whichever pathway you decide to choose,
They’ll always be lessons and lots of clues.
On every pathway, lessons will exist, 
Finding truth will require that you persist.

Walking a path, does not learning assure.
Takes more than presence, learning to secure.
From your doubt you ask, “why aren’t I learning?”
Lacking desire, the internal burning.
 
In the present, let the path

The Path of the Banker

In endless rows of ticking screens,
Where numbers dance and cold light gleams,
He spent his days in hollowed time,
His heart untouched, his soul confined.

Contracts signed with vacant eyes,
Chasing wealth beneath gray skies.
The clink of coins, the shuffle of files,
Left no joy, no genuine smiles.

Then one day, a scent of bread,
A baker’s voice, a warmth it spread.
The

The Path

Lead me not to wander dear Lord
guide my footsteps amongst the 
path of life.

Step by step as my journey beckons
up mountains down through valleys
keep me level in thy word.

Allow me to reach that glorious destination
where pain and sorrows are washed away
within the glory of your eternal love.

In the howling wilderness, the path is lost beneath the fury of wild winds

In the howling wilderness, the path is lost beneath the fury of wild winds,
The compass loses its meaning under the vast and empty sky, without stars to guide us,
Our steps wander through the nameless realm, where echoes forget their words,
Alone we walk through the wilderness of the heart, seeking traces of vanished dreams.
The thorns of

The path

Show me the last time I truly saw your face.
This has to be just short of insane.
This path we are walking doesn't feel safe.

I stumble as push forward
bones and dreams of some other time and place.
Three steps was a lifetime ago.

No vision nor eye for seeing. 
looking back through fogy memories
careful not to skip back

On the Path Less Traveled by Accident

Did we meet when stars aligned?
Or when fate dragged our paths,
to coincide, to bump together, 
sidled up, side by side, 
by coincidence, in time and space?

Or did we slide into the same path by accident?
Enchanted to dance by chance, 
with happenstance and serendipity,
on a path less traveled?

We met in a deserted park,
in a deserted ghost

The Path Of Loneliness

Silently walking along cobblestone 
With haunting memories bound by chain
Darkened thoughts have been sown
Silently walking along cobblestone 
Feeling destined to be on their own 
Their happiness has been slain
Silently walking along cobblestone 
With haunting memories bound by chain

The Path I'll Take

Crashing of the thunder shakes my every city
Roads and pavement cracks receive no pity

Twists and turns in every direction
Flaws and shame revealed in every confession

I'm never sure
Who’s at my core
But that’s the path
I’m going to have to take

Flow’rs dying in a cold, cold winter
Bears retreat to caves and enter 

Trees are cying tears frozen forever
Birds

lost on the path

But alas; sometimes I think we've lost our way-
too many strayed opinions...one too many a survey.

Walking on the road ahead, just following the herd of sheep-
with a hypnotised mind, wide awake yet very fast asleep.

While yelling...join the team of the future progressiveness-
but if you don`t your old fashion, head full of mindlessness.

The enchanting light, a

Necessitas: The Path to Peace

Perhaps we are delighted by union,  
Yet solace won’t be our great solution.  
The world will forever be indifferent.  
Man enacts his wrath and lament.  
Reject this precedence; augment your strength.  
Invoke your necessitas; express your will.  
Strive for self-overcoming,  
Work toward self-mastering.  
This is the path

You see, in the silence that surrounds us, it's only our fault that casts shadows on the path

You see, in the silence that surrounds us, it's only our fault that casts shadows on the path,
We've grown used to living for the sake of others, burning like candles in the darkness,
To be present when everyone needs us, steadfast rocks in the storm of the world,
But when we cry out from the depths, who

The Path Taken

The moon lights a glorious glowing path before us
like a splayed yellow band stretched to the stars
where we walk and listen to the nightbird sing
and allow our hearts to be moved by its melody
we hold the hand that flames the embers of our soul
and enter a rose colored rapture that joins our hearts

The You That Waits at the End of the Path

You walk,
step after step,
through choices carved into dust,
through silence heavy with answers
you are not ready to hear.

You do not know where the road leads,
only that it calls,
only that turning back is not the same as stopping.

But somewhere ahead,
beyond the fog of doubt,
past the echoes of what could have been,
there is a version of you waiting—
