I remind myself
Everyday:
A little music
A little dance
Even better:
A lot

Tides
I am a creature
Of my own thoughts
Of my own will
Of my own choice
Of my own thoughts
Of my own will
Of my own choice
Or so I think
Reminded by
The tides of seas
The tides of light
As moon circles I
As I circle sun
Not choice
Nor fate
All that is
Circles round
In ebb and flood
The Melody of Philosophy
Music created
The world I live in
A strange place
Of every possibility

Mental Sunglasses
I put on my mental sunglasses
Close my eyes
Quiet my mind
To see deeply into the light
Try to understand the nature of its source
Beneath the brilliance of illumination

Windows ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #64
Sometimes
All a window allows
Is the light of some unknown source
To illuminate a deep
Unsettling darkness
All a window allows
Is the light of some unknown source
To illuminate a deep
Unsettling darkness
Often
That is enough
To learn the nature of darkness
So I may seek the source
Beyond the world I know
Ghosts
I held you
In my arms
Stroking yours
Skin white and smooth
In my arms
Stroking yours
Skin white and smooth
Like the ghost gums
In the Red Centre
I would come to know
Centuries later
I held you
While you grew cold
Your eyes
Already clouding
My body emptied
Of presence
Hollowed
By your absence
Healing ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #58
0n my life’s journey
Science and logic and reason
Taught me all the many ways
I was wounded and broken
Science and logic and reason
Taught me all the many ways
I was wounded and broken
But it was not until
I met the Buddha on the road
That I began to heal
The Hard Ride
I turn the brightness up
Raise myself out of the depths
The mire
The hardship
Out of the confusion
And disorientation
If only for a moment
Raise myself out of the depths
The mire
The hardship
Out of the confusion
And disorientation
If only for a moment
Breathe
Like coming up for air
In the tumult
Of crashing surf
Before the wave
Takes me under
Darkness & Light ~ Shadow
When the darkness comes
I try to remember the light
When the light comes
I try to remember the shadows
I try to remember the light
When the light comes
I try to remember the shadows
I don’t know if it’s better
To be blinded by darkness or light
But I know it is shadow
Which gives form and texture
To an illuminated world
Light Through the Lattice
There are multiple sources
Of light in this world
Not all of them
Illuminate my way
Of light in this world
Not all of them
Illuminate my way
Of the rest, I’ve learned to follow
Not always the brightest
Nor the nearest
