Premium MemberUniversal Rhymes in Unitarian Time

If Eastern co-redemption
integrates unitarian-longing bodhisattvas
perhaps
Western peace-salvation
engages universal-belonging co-messiahs.

When highly functioning just-us
CONSCIENtious organic bodies
are also
1 eco-zone of co-redemptive dancing

Then deeply flowing peace-full
RELIGious sacred minds
are also
0-ego-zone of salvific
EarthPatriotic/GaiaMatriotic
resonantly singing 
resilient dancers.

Just because relationships resonantly rhyme
doesn't mean they are always
and everywhere True
AND
Because resilient correlations rhyme
throughout reasoned time
and seasoned space
also does not kindly mean we are never
and nowhere
not amusingly
not

She Was Never Born, She Simply Returned

She did not fall—
She flowed.
From the breathless stars to the edge of form,
She shimmered between sound and silence,
Becoming light before becoming skin.
She walked the void barefoot,
Carving paths in places the sky forgot,
Speaking in colors the earth hadn’t learned to see.
She was music before voice,
Fire before flame,
Knowing before name.

In lives long buried in salt and smoke,
She

Premium MemberUniversal Self

God is the flame Who lights all lights,
wherein the truth when we cognise,
beyond space time, peace that delights,
is our Self, which we realise.

Back to form, to see God in all,
dwelling deep within each form’s core,
entwined with gong of Om’s love call,
within heart resounds bliss beat’s roar.

When sense of separation ends, 
meaning we transmute as the

Premium MemberUniversal Light

Riding a beam of universal light.
The heavens are luminous, every night.
Interpreted through fear a blinding bright, 
Filtered through Love it provides great insight.

Is it better to give, than to receive?
First try it, then tell me what you believe.
Be honest with others, never deceive,
A life worth living, you’ll surely achieve.

Premium MemberUniversal Questions

I stand here gazing at stars in the sky,
Wondering what happens when I die?
It’s harder to see with my own eye,
The purpose of life as it passes by.

First, I’ll consider the where, when, and why?
Who or what it was, that caused my goodbye?
What was important, whether girl or guy?
A purposeful life, or is that a

Today I’m grateful to understand how love is universal…
I can’t believe there’s anyone in this world who would doubt it…

or have to live without it.

DIVINE UNIVERSAL WONDER




       At dusk,
  a greater divine fire
 beautifully erases
  the entire horizon...
  and the starry night,
 in so many startled tongues of fire,
  concentrates and sings
 in a profusion of enchanting lights,
 thus the magnificence of the universe
   is made...!

Eighteen

Eighteen

A number that holds so much meaning 

Any individual who meets terms with this number never feels content

A singular tie to childhood is all that’s left

A bearing weight of adulthood near

An anxious sense of uncertainty for what perseveres

A sentimental responsibility for new freedoms adhere

The time in life that withholds the most confusion

When many individuals unfold

Premium MemberUniversal Plan

When God laid out the plan for humanity,
    A blueprint of love was interwoven in the tapestry.

Threaded layers went beyond any cotton, silk, or wool,
    As a final finished garment, covered mankind in full.

Throughout this design, men and women were the key.
    Not always in perfect

Universal love

How to explain( I wrote "explain" seven times
before I got the spelling right)
my nephew, who lives in Spain but not in Valencia   
where the storm occurred, played golf 
A turbulent of Swedes secure of theIr long spell
democracy against an insecure Norwegian team
The Swedes won, but my nephew got a medal 
made of bronze 
later in the day, it struck
