Onwards???

I feel the time is upon me,
to walk this sacred earth.

Which way will I travel,
I cannot say

just forward

a new step each day.

I will talk,

write,

& gather a story.

Someday,

I will tell a tale.

Hush

The echo of a voice

a slipping pebble

a raindrop in a pool

a whisper in eternity


Signs

A seedling emerges
pushing up through the frosty earth

The call of a newborn lamb
crying for its mother, who is never far away

Sparrows forage busily
building for the coming months

Buds burst into life
filling the trees with blossom


Spring is upon us

What makes a Man?

is it a piece of paper
that he hangs upon his wall,
be it the transportation
that he drives,
the amount of plastic
that fills his wallet,
or the the name upon
his newest suit?

What defines Him?
What controls Him?
What is it we think He must be...

To be a Man

The beauty of nature, is a sight to behold

Yet our eyes alone,

can do it little justice

17.05.2002

People are not who they seem to be
Hiding behind their false facades
They play a game of sorts
Struggling always, against the other
Forming alliances to suit their needs
All consumed in selfish efforts
Waiting for a lowered guard
Never to assault with frontal attack
Making their plays from within the shadows
Cast in a theatre of conspiracy
Left alone and without substance
Beings in a world of nothingness
Where jealousy resides

Finally

From within a place, which is so near.
Sounds a note of recognition
Confirms that doubt's no longer there
An understanding of intuition

Within but only, on the surface
Knowledge seen before, just barely
Burns now with heat, as from a furnace
Revealing secrets to me clearly

Bedside Lamp

I switched on the lamp,
beside the bed
Recalled a memory of You.

Just as easy it seems,
to switch off the lamp
and forget.

Why should the light,
remind Me of You..

When in its absence,

You did not exist.

Open

Thoughts shared from a different perspective,
are always beneficial to communication,
when You are truly open to hearing.

Inevitability

Summer turns to Autumn
Like the seasons,
man must also change



sought after

From drops of gold
of which is spun
A web of love
to trap those willing

Unaware of magic silks
Betrayed by eyes
that cannot see
Captured in enchanted bonds
of which you longed for secretly

Yet at first you struggle
without much hope
Knowing well
you've sealed your fate

Now with acceptance
and feelings true
Your life
You give away

Music plays
the tune you know
Content..
You give a sigh

Embraced..
a kiss
You then receive
That ends the dance
without encore

Of spider and the fly

DAMAGE

Often as I sit alone,
in this world of stone & steel.
Breathing in the toxic air
& choking fumes, my sight reveals

I ponder on a tragic thought
of how our kind behaves...

We take what's good for us
we think..
Delve deep our mines & drills

No longer killing to survive..

Making wounds we cannot heal

for her

Embrace my thoughts

my dreams of You

This you must now know...

When your voice is the wind

Your laughter a crystal shower

And your smile is the sun, rising on another day.

I think of You

enduring time

No thoughts of another

on my mind

Immortal Spirit

I die in dreams.
Falling from above, or bellow
Always falling...
Spinning in circles
I plummet down , an endless turning
Always down...
A cavern of enormous size
Of measureless depth
Cold walls of stone
Cannot I rise...
The journey ends
a final jolt.
Upon the floor, I'm laying still.
My soul I send...
I reach within my spirits' vessel
no broken parts can find.
Surprised but not, at the outcome
Belief has saved me still
