Here we stand, fraying away from the reef bed Remoteness comes comprehensive secrets Illuminating ears, eyes of life, mystery hiding deepest Ripping reasons right out of yearnings, pain, this soul of mine And there I, I am given the guidelines, kneeling to see torn flesh From my knees…seeking the tear which reached out and Touched me…is this such a difficult thing to find? After all, every single root lay within the ground swelling in The dark folds of earth…where body and soul combine into and from Our lips part with questions on that colder side of the moon Giving to your hands, what are heavy confidant passions Within the deepest of longings we are born goldsmiths Proceeding always like a milestone Shaping something in every moment, even if only thoughts Even if the day is gone, the cost is dear, but all coral is ours In every drop of milk we spill Rust from the face of time becomes varnished Where enthusiasm paints the roads Passing through another town, then another Clear, pure hearts, hail a remedy full of pearls Like the stories of a singing nightingale Reflecting balms to quell weaknesses of man Seeking adoration for our weariness We scrape every drop of oil from almonds, praising such gifts Or we should! Floating in ecstasy one more time, we medley What from our lips we arm, feeling the pulse of treasures We are knots within comprehension, presenting ourselves the elixir Joining forces is to find the key All soothing words and promises must be dreamed Then fulfilled, drinking the waters of truth If we wish not to sever the links All becomes one, in words, body, soul, truth, the spiritual… The healer prepares a potion out of favor which never expires Full of wisdom, understanding a hundred times lending What is His to give…think, letting go of worries And a oneness we can all know, the knowledge From an earthly love that was is and always will be so complete Sculptor an eternity of water filled of wills life, by reasoning For… Where the beauty of the heart is reckless with trust For where ever beauty’s eyes see roses a bloom Where ever eminence finds a voice And innocence is the beloved…then Where ever shameless truth be known There to…is Love, polishing a rock to curve Dependant on nothing…that is where all faces wear colors Of spring light and music…and this is what I wish for all mankind to see, feel, think, know to wear this robe of beauty.. to know that there is nothing else, without it Merry Christmas |

You are so clear, so distinct. I just floated down through this poem like drifting in a rowboat and watching the banks go by. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |
