Re: Poetry of the Heart and Spirit

If the lights don't go out
we cannot see

how brilliant the stars are

Re: Poetry of the Heart and Spirit

lost in forgetfulness
pulled over hard ground by this delusional self
spitting out poisonous thought forms and afflicted emotions
every action of body and mind spoiled by self-grasping

pausing, inspired
stopping, calming
looking deeply, listening with the heart
remembering

from the mud a lotus blooms

Re: Poetry of the Heart and Spirit

on the fly
my hands are clean
inspired I fly
too dry

wow my thoughts are foggy
I can't see
nor can I do
I can only say one thing

no one will hear what I say
I'm not sure they can
the voices tell me these things
they tell me to rhyme too

but it's too confining
atleast when I'm whining
otherwise I'm dying
no, not crying

that I can't do
why?
*shrugs* the sky is blue
who?
*shrugs* probably you
where?
here, now, dumb dumb
when?
I said NOW!!!!

all I ask is one thing
all I want is one thing
just one thing will please
if I may
if I might
please don't let me die tonight =(
please?
I'll even drop my pants and sing!

Re: Poetry of the Heart and Spirit

Just one Taste
opens this invisible little self
all cultural decorations, rituals, and beliefs are stripped away
nothing is attained
no I, no Me, no Mine remain
a heart-burst releases streams of compassion, loving-kindness, and sweet joy

Where is this self now
complete interbeing
one cosmic-universal consciousness

Silent, ever present
completely free from identity
unknown, unknowing
AWAKE!

Re: Poetry of the Heart and Spirit

awake or sleeping
dead or alive

conscious?

no more food to eat
no more work to be done

I sit and wait
silently

my heart moves
my mind stands still
and I wait

earthing myself
I cannot come down
in the clouds I lie

Re: Poetry of the Heart and Spirit

The gift to be this

gratitude sweeps  the cobwebs

now kiss me awake 

Re: Poetry of the Heart and Spirit

oh my Sweet what lays between

Your breaths

Your waves

Your words

Let  me please be that inbetween

for there is the eternal  embrace

closer than skin 

than eyes

than teeth 

Re: Poetry of the Heart and Spirit

i could sing the desert of desires asleep

and dance gently through 

it's tangles, briars and brambles

wind down to the pure still waters of love

there I'd be wating for me

lost and found 

Re: Poetry of the Heart and Spirit

angry fool lost

in dream of a real self-

Awake again

Re: Poetry of the Heart and Spirit

mind swirling

fast complex life-

one breath unifies

Re: Poetry of the Heart and Spirit

sleeping and wakefulness

two sides of the same thing

simplicity is easy

many things confuse

however one thing will end all

thinking

without words or voice

without thought or deed

without any but this

well well well

down the well

Re: Poetry of the Heart and Spirit

calling myself a name

I anger the greater self

which dwells everywhere

yet without words, none shall possess

none shall survive

save the last, which cannot be spoken of

together we find safety

together we must protect our knowledge

lest time shall fail

and thought cease

Re: Poetry of the Heart and Spirit

simply inspired

easily understood, but not transparent

covering that which is already hidden

silent knowledge

wordless expressions of my heart

continuous

not lacking, but still in the mist

the mist of my awakening

the greater spirit calls me, but I turn away in shame

and afraid of that which already is

how can I deny that which is?

do I deny that I know it?

or do I turn away simply because I yearn for something else

Re: Poetry of the Heart and Spirit

One mind of love

Fills the infinite void of space

Peace spreads

Re: Poetry of the Heart and Spirit

dying to self

fasting from light

food does nurture

but music satisfies

relativity and patience

both are necessary for me

one I can find

the other is waiting for me

just beyond my consciousness

Open Your Mind

Re: Open Your Mind

I give up

This little self won't leave-

summer surrender

Re: Open Your Mind

Nice haiku!  =)

I Witness In Wonder

Re: I Witness In Wonder

Thanks for the beautiful words and images…

Re: I Witness In Wonder

just wanted to offer something…

although perhaps I am asking…

perhaps both…

go see “An Inconvenient Truth”… It's Al Gore's (our real president) movie… it will blow your mind… if you didn't believe in global warming before, you will now…

SEE IT!… it's the movie of the year, without a doubt….

but I am wondering if it will win any awards?… *ponders*… probably not =)… heheheh

blessings,

Nic

Re: I Witness In Wonder

“An inconvenient Truth” is an eyes opening, and reminding us about our impact on the earth. We take in from the earth every minute; have we ever asked ourselves what do we put out to our mature earth?

I do ask myself everyday now.

Re: Poetry of the Heart and Spirit

This little self just needs to say this:

I love you all and always will, even though I may never meet you in this life, I do wish deeply and sincerely for your good health, abundant resources, powerful protection, a peaceful mind, a loving heart, and for you to become fully awake, right here , right now, in this very life!

All blessings to you all, with deep respect and a very low and slow bow

Only Love can heal the deepest wounds!

May we all awaken together
