SAMPLES
When I learned all of us are just ET souls that put on human body spacesuits to experience life in the physical dream world to find love, I set out to join up with the source I'd left behind. That's what I express here in #1 - AWAKEN.
#1 AWAKEN
Awaken silent friend that
I found sleeping here inside,
Time for us once more to share
The laughter and friend words
That were a symphony we played
Somewhere far away and long ago…
Awaken now the ears that heard your melodies,
Awaken now the heart that knew you then.
Let these eyes see and know you
Growing like the butterfly
Whose life no longer footsteps
By the inch across a stem
But soars from rose to daffodil
Across clear streams and over hills…
Somehow I know that
While he crawled from leaf to leaf
He had the same joy that I feel
In finding you asleep inside me
As he labored many days
To cross a patch of garden
Covered now in one brief moment
On his rainbow-colored wings
I know he knew it then…
I’ve learned to hear again
So you can wake up now
And we can share the joy that
He has given us to paint
Upon the rainbow moments
Of eternity.
#99 PROBLEM
Before I considered the problem
I thought it must be very complicated
So when I came to the problem
And I considered it, it was
Sometimes life is like this
And best to look at it
As just a process with
Many events and countless
Great solutions I will always
Have the resources to find
#102 FREE
I will be
Completely free
When I can forget all
The pains of my life
Because I am and live
All the lessons they taught me
At the same time I know
I am only as free as the
Forgiveness I allow myself
For those things I’ve done
In my life of which
I am most ashamed
#103 FACES
If I were a snowball
And I could run
I would keep away from the
Deforming heat of the sun
That would stop me
From being what I am
Since I am human running
Life races of my own
I must keep safe from
The deforming heat of hate
That destroys my contact and
Silences the language
Of my soul
#104 PEAKS
There are no lakes
On jagged peaks
Because water does not
Gather there
In our lives and minds
We assemble the rocks
Valleys and jagged peaks
Of who we become
Peace is like water waiting
For us to make a space to fill
With a cosmic symphony
It can only play and
We can only hear in
The deep silence
Of peace
#106 JUSTICE
If two and two
Were three
Where this exists
Justice would not be
Possible
#210 SUNRISE
This morning I
Got up before dawn
So I could watch the sun
Push away the darkness
With usual serenity and poise
Regardless of the noise
And tasks upon my way
Today will be peaceful
Because I took a moment
To welcome in me
What I saw outside
The sunrise of my soul
To fill my day with its
Enfolding light
#213 REACT
Have you ever thought
How strange it is that
Birds, tigers, dogs, elephants
Cats, horses, porpoises
And human beings
All need and respond
The same way
To love?
#215 ANIMALS
Wherever he went
As he wandered
Through the countryside
Saint Francis was followed
By birds and animals
He spoke with them
And they could answer him
I know this was not a case
Of a man talking to
Animals
#108 NOW
If I forgot
All of my past and
Accepted the future
In a state of active grace
I would be all of my past and
Flow safely through the future
Because I’d be living everything
With the all of me I am now
The single unit of active eternity
I have spent my life
Learning to become
#109 ON THE WAY
A good thought is
Like a mirror in which
We can see ourselves clearly
In a thought we are the viewer
And the reflection
The thought is never more
Or less than the depth
Of who we really are...
Because so many have
Already taken this human journey
We must measure ourselves
In the mirror of evolved thoughts
Of those who have a wider view
Than ours and know what lies ahead
Let those who’ve been there
Describe the destination
And in allowing this we’ll
Begin to open the gates in us
For life’s most precious gift
The active humility needed
As the first step on the way
To wisdom
