Inward nature, consigns an infernal circle Significant things translated To friendliness dreaming about songs Past preserved memories, this may carry one soul If only one…then incomprehensible With volumes of colors and beautiful things Burning as thoughts…desires, so close in their lives But, what purifies their desires…opens clear strong currents? The passion and affirmation…prayers and meditations For a sister or a brother…and not only a lover But a broader sense of love, going deep within the spirit And there paves golden cobblestones Of a new epoch, objectives, and universal beauty Unveiling reality…the arrival of the divine among man What is then, the everyday flow of time? Where it enters into one privileged moment One significant rhyme, living and alive One very precise essential moment, within a human being Imposing a certain form in mind and memory Ephemeral appears, within the spiritual kind Everywhere waiting for perception to grasp Holding onto that splash of space…like a visitor spreading light Where we drift together hand in hand, not thinking of gain Simply being and acceptance That most essential reality hidden in ever person and thing Occupies an important place, within the flow of weaving motifs Of everyday time, discernment smiles from a voice inside I exist, in books, magazines, within the observing minds Misfortune touches my flesh, and strengthens the immigration Where a lighted house and a kerosene lamp Unfolds the flame of compassion Nature is perfect, functional and deserving Or can be…but then…perhaps we cannot do much Without, personifying? Mythological transformations Of the splashes of stones, or maybe even phenomena? Bringing along a fluted stream with a large face smiling God bless his luminations, thoughts and ideas...mankind...Epiphany! |

You say these things so well.... In your photo there's a hand resting on your shoulder. I have a feeling there's a much larger one there, most all the time. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

In a most positive sense, your poetry is like a combination of Philosopy-101, An Introduction To Metaphysics, and The Basics Of Spirituality... I can always count on a yummy mind-ful to keep me contemplating for quite a while when I read your work. -MVS You CAN make a difference: |

I skipped this read yesterday, knowing it would deserve more than a cursory glance, and I had very little PC time. I'm glad I didn't miss this wonderful read, Lee. You never fail to stir up the grey matter and strengthen the heartbeat. A keeper, to read again. |
