Rising from dark
depths, midnight left
behind somewhere across
the world. Wakened
to shadowed images
yet to sharpen
in the mind,
blurred by sleep.
Focused sharper now,
why do i
surface here? Hard
to the edge
of mornings seeping,
light gently easing,
controlled by the
axis, moving stars
out of reach.
Closing my eyes
in homage of
another new day,
full of oportunities
to witness wonder
within a world
of many possibilities.
Bring me the
treasures exhibited in
each individual act,
kindness, compassion, nuances
displayed in every
walking, living, human.
Dont tell me
men dont know
about war and
consequential casualties to
fellow human beings.
Wealth has no
place in eternity's
sweet scented garden.
To the barren
lands of sharpened
slithers of granite,
for those who
forsake the lords
word, to put
lucre before the
sanctity of human
life. Playing God
in his world
dooms those with
lifeblood running between
parsimonious trigger fingers,
while we lay
down in elesian
fields of eternity,
with the sun
shining warm on
our faces, luxuriating
in the allmighty's
radiant nonsuch love.

Desire for nothing except desirelessness,hope for nothing except to rise above all hopes, want nothing and you will have everything.avatar Meher Baba.

Very impressive work. It spoke loudly to me.
