Life Matters

paradise2

 

Animal-istic!
Ferocious and fun loving

Plant-istic!
Whimsical and free living

Human-istic!
Compassionate and full of giving

All so distinct
And then,
By the Magician’s wand
All rolled into one, the human being!

What a jewel in this earthly crown!
Yet does he even know
How he stands out?!

By incredible design
A behavioral machine,
Reacting to stimuli
With unending zest.

Fascinated by the senses
With everything he sees
He hears
And touches!

Yet, not only is he the jewel in the crown
He is also a crown within the jewel!

Rippling
Through every  cell
Every muscle
Every organ
And laid deep within
Are gems…

When uncovered
This vegetative
Animalistic human
Comes alive!

Alive! With a truth
That surpasses any sensory stimulation
That puts to shame the conquests of conquerors!

Why?!
Because this journey
Can only be made alone
This journey
Makes you yield all your weapons
This journey
Is the making of mankind

When love, understanding, gratitude surface
Humility is second nature
The next person as deserving as you
Compassion for life and all that lives
Now matters.

Life matters!

 

 

 

Destiny, Fate and Luck

The scientist believes,
And serves to prove
“Cause and effect”
Every action has a reaction.
Your reality is direct
Causal effect in form…

The philosopher thinks,
And serves to explain,
You are not what you see
Nothing is what is appears
So search and debate….

The artist creates,
And serves to stimulate
Pushing you out of your box,
Sometimes with delight
Sometimes with a certain discomfort…

So who tells you
And serves to show you
You are you,
Complete, fortunate and free!!

Who guides you to you,
The depths of your comfort
Finding serenity and your home?

How beautiful then
When Destiny is where you are
Fate is your privileged existence
And Luck is your acknowledgement…

So be sure to hold supreme
That which guides and ushers,
You to You….

New

new
Is this what’s new for you?
A new year?
A new month?
A new day?

Well I have news for you!
What’s new is much more frequent
It’s the freshest newest thing there is!

It’s here and then here again
And before it’s gone
Its almost here again!

‘What?!’ you ask

It’s breath!!

There!
And there!
And there again!
See?
New every time
Can’t stop it even if you try!!”

“Why is it new?” You ask

Because it brings a new moment
A new opportunity
Never a repeat.
Just like a first kiss
The morning sunrise
A child’s first step

Don’t wait for the occasion
Don’t want for a change
Inherent in each breath
Is the unseen truth,
Each one precious
Each one only for you….

That’s what’s new!

So enjoy your New Year
Your new month
Your new day
Your new moment

The one that comes
With each New Breath…

Christmas Fulfilled

xmas

Great tidings awaited
The King did come

The people did sing
Glory proclaimed

She sits alone
Her inner Kingdom reigns

Oh what fortunate
The crown beheld

Encrusting gems
Gratitude and love

Shimmering now
Inside and out

Thanks are inherent
From the fullest heart

Brimming and flowing
With riches undreamt

Boundless reciprocation
This endless love

Mercy, mercy
For this is her Heaven!

Lover’s Arms

lover's arms

What is your lover’s kiss?
The meeting of two
A spot of tenderness
Somewhere to express…?

What is your soul mate’s shoulder?
Somewhere to rest
A strength to lean on
A place to let go…?

What are those loving arms ?
Steel bars for protection
Great cranes to carry your troubles
Comfort for you to lay in…?

But where is that one lover?
The one that stays when all others have come and gone
The one who loved you before you knew you where loved..

Close your eyes, go within
Feel the kiss of life as each breath comes
Lean on that shoulder as the outside dissipates
Know those carrying arms as weightless you become..

Your one true lover
Resides within and beside you

In your one true lover’s company
There are no woes

In your one true lover’s arms
You know you are home…..

 

Love Breeds Love

heart

Undeniable!
Indisputable!
Irrefutable!
Wholesomely possible!!

When the sun is out
Even the blind can feel it

When the big band plays
Even the deaf can hear it

When the gale wind blows
Even the most sturdy sway

When your heart is touched
Love rolls like a stream
Feeds all the shoots around
And everyone gets to smile

Love breeds love
And that’s just
Undeniable!!!

True Friendship

friends

When familiarity is not just comfortable
But holds intrigue and excitement

When comfort is not just being relaxed
But inspires belonging and respect

When intrigue is not just the unknown
But builds to expand growth

When excitement does not fizzle
But leads to new heights..

This is finding
One’s home
This is finding one’s friend
