dedicated to the memory of Joseph Campbell


life is
a poem

poetry is
life

we breathe and live
within the myths of man
and they live forever
within us
and beyond us

the poetry of life
the life of poetry

it breathes through our pores
it pours from our heart and soul

dreams...
energy manifested
myths...
buried in the depths
of our universality

our totality

our being


what is life,
but
poetry

I do enjoy
when you are inspired,
because you end up bringing
us the world...

(sigh) There are words he says that everyday deeply touch my heart, including this in particular: "We must be willing to get rid of the life we've planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us." (big hugggsssssss) I am not much of a schedule person myself and believe we should just do what we feel as variety is the spice to life, yay, God Bless You, you have done Joseph much justice, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kacy, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

ROTFL at your comment Raph. You are a wonderful gift, a unique offering to the totality of LIFE on Earth.
Now go hug yourself, and be thankful for today.

Midnite - as always - your writing soothes me so - life is poetry - maybe not really good poetry - maybe like this one I wrote and never finished - two words - one line:

I ponder . . .

Beautiful words - always inspiring me . . .

lol @ Raph
