Posted: 10/7/2006 10:57:50 AM | spare us nothing
please and do ensure
we each and everyone of us
understand importance of the following
be kind to others; especially
children
the elderly
challenged in any way
addiction laden folks
we all see often on our way
animals and all living things
including of course ourselves
our lands waters and vegetation
the fine earth beneath our feet
artists and musicians
caregivers too
so many more
than can be included
so just follow golden rule
do unto others as you would
like to be treated too
i'll asume fair and equal
with no false pride nor
assumptions to be made
yet easily casting fear aside
as well to reap that we sow
work hard with owning these
integrity honesty faith courage
restraint when necessary
when to speak up as well
to help others when we can
to keep ourselves safe
self respect and love
freedom so important
try to be of lightest heart
remember there is always
someone more needy
more angry because they're hurting
more thirsty, more happy
and many other things
respect all until you have
been shown a risk involved
too big to take or make
have fun when you can and
work at something you like
and life will be more than right
if only it were easy as following rules
and avail ourselves too
but at least we've been given
a fine set of tools
if we but them
choose to use | |

| a place to lay some lines down, to feel, to frolic, to be
Posted: 10/7/2006 10:59:00 AM | when we live our lives as the ouroboros
we may seem to be at first glance one thing
but upon closer inspection quite another
for the symbol of such a creature is reptilian
of a dragon or snake devouring it's tail
but representing the circle of life you see
as etymologyfully states this is greek
and vastly encompassing all: infinity!
as a believer in many things and a lover
of words and especially antique books as
well as exploring variant forms of knowledge
different planes of reality thusly i~
firmly believe not only am i truly a geek;
but in some form or another we all are infinite
no matter our color race or creed
religion or spiritualism
following which way
seems best for us
but are we better than "just"
simply organic as plant matter
ashes to ashes indeed | |

| a place to lay some lines down, to feel, to frolic, to be
Posted: 10/7/2006 11:02:22 AM | But love is not what’s said,
but what’s both said and heard
and sometimes read...
others may know that
which stabs us deepest inside
but only if we let them
so much better to read
ignore and decide to heed
the crumbs and pieces of
our heart yearning yet
waiting for true breadth
on which to partake and
on that to begin to rely | |

| beauty day here in this desert
Posted: 10/7/2006 11:42:26 AM | beauty day here in this desert
woke up feeling so cleansed
and finally whole once again
needed that wake up call
and speaking of sense
reminding me what matters
no matter the distance
space or time cannot deny
even the oceana torrents
doesn't part that deep within
even news more soon a visit
when faces not seen in years
will smile gratefully into the other
no misconstruction in our words
we know the other better
than any other even sometimes
better than ourselves
we accept we are still the same
to each other in still every way
another reunion of soul to soul
hearts free at last to unfold
the reality deep within both
a phoenix rising like
a newest moon
whence harvest time
will surely be most lush
time to prepare as once long ago
excitement building as surely
that known ultimate crescendo
thoughts and ideals spoken clear
foundation this truth of many years
laid out about the seed
accepted and wanted sincerely
thoughts again focused clear
nearly jumping from this skin
comfort of real hapiness
settles luxeriously back in
balance returns and so swiftly
smiles laughter and planning
as i remember back once again
bringing me to absolution
worth of all recent past
upon fruition most suprising today
grounded yet excited finding
beauty day here in this desert | |

| hurting?
Posted: 10/7/2006 12:54:24 PM | now for the many
maybe hurting inside
i offer this which you
may pick or discard
whichever fancies your whim
if you can but just imagine
anything you can build
upon yourself within
hope that strongest foundation
that exist of purest will
tenacity brings forth much
a veritable wellspring within
pick up all your bits of courage
now each and every one
large or small matters not
for you'll need them all
as far as they seemingly
have scattered here and there
yet if you reach
deeply far and wide
you can indeed regain
your own self of self
hence even yes even
your shattered pride
hardest sometimes in dark
to quiet the storms inside
buckle up to soar and fly
it's within your right
more importantly your duty
to yourself be only true
and as best not in any hurry
forget about any worrying
negativity's demons play
but you own your strength
and all mustered power
to cast them completely out
by remembering not the pains
for anguish helps only
in the very moment it's felt
worked through right there then
best not to revisit those
especially in the dark
or feeling in the fray
remember dawns a new start
each single day of 24 hours
may seem to be lasting as forever
but you can if you choose
keep it all perfectly together
hey it's a start
but one of right direction
look to nature
hear her calling gently
enjoy fully her offerings
many and plentiful all round
breathe in deeply all
let it out slowly
allow yourself to believe
you have the power but only
if you choose otherwise
that power is misused
forget not many hurt
same as me and you
some even far more
c mon you know its true
don't gauge any differences
but accept them as they are
rather seek sameness in others
some are not meant to come
into our lives but as but lessons
if you know or learned anything
it's good to learn from them well
as you better decipher
and understand your needs
then move both body and mind
toward your goals forward
it might take a bit of practice
yes it's well worth your time
pick and choose those you like
some are indeed kindred
more are not but that's alright
understanding the difference
is sometimes the only lesson
accept what you want and can
discard what doesn't work for you
simplest way to bend over and
pick up the scattered pieces
singularly of your own held truth
if you don't believe me scoff
turn your heart away
laugh in my face or burn me
at your stake you've created
you alone are master of your life
do you hunger for release
or something else undefined
find that you alone know
deep in your heart pure
to manage to create
whatever you like
of clay or all those
many pieces all strewn
upon your grounds
the choice is yours
and is waiting for you
all you have to do is simple
decide then follow through
if you make your ideals your path
and decide to not from it stray
sooner than you might think
you'll know fuller and brighter days | |

| hurting?
Posted: 10/7/2006 6:15:42 PM | No matter how many minuscule pieces
I try to smash that mirror into
So that others may not be burdened
In the same pain
In a distance so far away
A sister in familiarity
Showed me the reflection of
Of a mirror called Hope
Adorned not with common jewels
But with a priceless gift
Of a name
Softedge | |
|
| a simple but true promise
Posted: 10/7/2006 8:29:59 PM | mere distance matters least of anything
in minds and hearts of any true friends
really understanding one another for
they are kindred
oh so please no never stop dreaming
alwaysdreaming2006
yet also please do remember as well
to live each day new reaching to strive
living and learning to walk with pride
ever honoring the little you inside
for she was brave yes good and real
and she has now become both
inside and out beautiful you~
so be truest to yourself always
and know this too all storms weathered
outside or within always do pass
and troubles shared amongst
friends seem to always divide
family left i have none; i have lost them to death
but blood left i have some; yet i won't claim
but friends i have many and you well you are indeed
a soul sister i am graced to now know thank you
next time just try gently laying down that looking glass
it may be time to safely begin a journey within
you're safe now and yes so am so i this i can promise | |
|
| a simple but true promise
Posted: 10/8/2006 11:31:32 PM | the desert sun set
again beautifully
majestically even
warming me as it
left my eye's sight
as i watched it
once again alone
but not really
because i shared with it
my thoughts purest
so full life is of so much hope
promise ever rendering
and yes neverending too
desired passions heating
good interesting work
challenges every day
amazing things yet
to learn share and grow
true friends along the way
memories swelling
emotions flowing
so much to keep me
on my toes sometimes
a bit off kilter and
balance as well too
but fair amount still
to strive toward
makes it all interesting
and yes some regrets too
for once again my sweet
twas not shared with you
and then as i watched quietly
a most beautiful happening
occurred and stirred me again
in a different but similar style
for then this full moon rose
proudly in the same sky
and it whispered to me
loudly in my heart and eyes
of magic and just knowing | |
|
| i love words
Posted: 10/9/2006 10:33:30 PM | thank you for
your kind words to me
yes words flow
from my hand
as fast as my mind feels them
usually i do read through again
perhaps to add a word or two.
i love words!
just play with them a bit
you'll soon see yourself
doing probably exactly
the same thing
we are but human
we have needs
we feel fears
joy can even cause tears
shed a few tears
love and want and grow
cast out doubt
life life getting out
a bit into the earth
feel it solidly underground
familiar isn't it?
enticing senses
of sight and hearing
scent and textues
colors lazer printed
in my minds tablet
once felt then to
become memory
i hope we all have this
even when we grow old
for it's a very comforting thing
now, if only i could sing... | |

Posted: 10/11/2006 11:05:40 PM | must confront our own demons
or they shall never be slain
laying quietly in recesses
of mind's past incantations
ruminations once too true blue
dichotomy's cloak snugly bound
in every realm and fold unfurled
heartiest of all fires began
stoked from small twigs first
was it the edge or a warm ledge
or perhaps just thicket's tufts
fanning winds creating lust
peeking from behind hedges
yet hidden in intricate depths
then spiraling skyward
heart's locket broken open
dreaming non reality
soaring again quite freely
won't be tied in binds
of other's yesterday minds
awaiting that single kiss
textured brilliantly divine
better even than gustav klimt's | |

Posted: 10/13/2006 3:13:44 AM | See the dream?
It’s the heart that says it all
No am not beautiful
But in your eyes I don’t have
To dream…I see the beauty
YOU make me feel beautiful
I am not mindless
I know I am not beautiful to all nor are you
That is a blessing to the cupids who don’t always
Have the ability to shoot straight
Show me perfection and I’ll show you a world of dreams
In OUR eyes is all that matters
A soul that blends with the spirit is true
A truth without words JUST a recognition
Like the rarity
Or possibility
Of a triple rainbow unseen but only by OUR eyes
YOU are the colour in my life
That does not seek because I am bought into being…
This soul knows you’re my…delusion | |

Posted: 10/13/2006 7:45:15 PM | I lay on this bed of tears
Floating
Nothing surrounds me but
The ocean endless in horizon
Floating
The reflection I see
Are the clouds above me
Ahhhh so which one is heaven and/or hell
What do I see in between the ocean and the sky
Nothing … except the struggle within me
To find a shore called home
Filled with love and devotion | |

| lush life
Posted: 10/14/2006 3:51:10 PM | inspiration from my inbox full but yours stands strongly alone, for YOU, kind sir, are of that special ilk of evolved man that i am just in absolute awe of.
i find myself dumbstruck by lines laid out and hesitate to even yet to allow you to expand further in my mind's realm; you are that satiating to this very point i bathe in them.
i wrap myself in them as a beautiful velvet cloak of softest texture and deepest blue lined silk inside and just fine and begging to be felt.
for now...
rest assured when i sit to eat hungrily your words i will wash them down with a cup of tea, not too hot nor too sweet.
or a kamikaze...
you are of cellular structures and fibers woven intricately into that same which dreams are.
while i am indeed complex, you are more; for you are depth.
while i love words, yours seem to love you even more so.
i am intrigued, as beholding a fire, a bit afraid to dare know more.
but, in this case, i find myself indeed daring to dare...
this is not anxiety nor restlessness i feel, but yes it is explicable.
as it is heady rapt anticipation, and of the form of purest depth. | |

| lush life
Posted: 10/14/2006 6:14:33 PM | what was once shared
took us beyond ourselves
no matter where we were
no matter where our time was spent
we now have other places to go
other dreams to envelope
and invade once again ruining
depths of our separateness | |

| blood moon
Posted: 10/17/2006 5:20:16 PM | blood slowly staining our moon
as it seeps beading and weeping even
pleading matters not in ways dearly
who will know its when meaning clear
appears our beloved companion moon
huge fantastic orb suspended red in skies
seen both here n there; far and wide
dripping blood down to cries
below to this our earth stopping even time
some will say it's a definitive sign
one sure thing to behold
yet even more of to fully know
i'm not here speaking of
sights through fire
or smokey haze throughout
nor of setting night afire
for us humans, well we sometimes
doubt that and yes even those
right in front of our very nose | |

| At Peace With One
Posted: 10/17/2006 5:38:39 PM | In a rainbow of color,
I see the eyes of another.
Cascading droplets of infinite goals
Seeking out and knowing intimate roles.
The Sun shines brightly on favored minds.
The Wind cools the mighty memorable kind.
The moon reflects that which is given easily.
The stars shine with no limits and all reason to be.
An infinite world gifted to those with limitless ideals.
All reasons to go where no one has taken what's real.
Finding pieces of what brings about peace in the soul.
Knowing that there is a time to share with one in life's whole.
This spectrum of color is reflective in those on the same path.
Moments that will be shared with all that will escape from the wrath.
Growing in constant innumerable ways as examples to follow in life.
AND in one moment, a flurry of inspiration will bring about the brightest light.
Peace will come but not just as with one
but with an abundance brighter than the sun,
To all those that seek the goodness of any around.
In life, in love and in the gift of bringing others to higher ground.
---Robert  | |

| night sailing from the novice's view and heart
Posted: 10/19/2006 5:32:50 PM | mmm now THAT was indeed
a most beautiful evening spent
driving and sharing anew
out to your lake we went
sharing unending blue sky turning
pinks, purples and blues
mountains shades indications
water levels sharply dropping
so alarmingly and sadly too
from that we both once knew
yes here yesterday afternoon
in this very crowded city
we began with a smile and hug
in greeting then we got in
and then buckled n strapped in
then you turned on your music...
we seemed to glide on roads
which both took us from and to
that white blue glistening sheen
like glass of lake waters
reflected therein the glow
of our city beyond those
very mountains we passed
over and through to get to
water seemingly vast
waves of lavender icelandic blue
a great ride of new adventure
began for both me and you
yes here in this desert city
roads and mountains winding
into the very sky to the dock
then there on that boat
began quite another, indescribable
with your amazing company
but you know this already
don't you?!
expansive star laden sky
focus unendingly clear
my eyes are still amazed
waves wind and sails
flapping gently and
sometimes swiftly slicing air
my ears still processing
hearing jokes and tales
my lips are still smiling
warmly inside and out
for that promise made~
it was more than true
that i would enjoy myself
easily as it best is
you just knew
you shared an amazing thing
indeed, yourself, sky and stars
and managed to keep me warm
all the while so it seems
i still can't stop smiling
man of integrity proven
already by spoken words
vis a vis made stronger
by you and your stronger actions
that and more; sharing isn't a chore
but rather the beginning
of something intangibly more | |

| my mind tonight eased
Posted: 10/19/2006 6:29:08 PM | my mind seems to be traversing in many directions
i am speechless
i am the wandering gypsy
i am...
so many things at once
i am only just me
but~
i am the absolute very best me i know how to be!
for some i am definitely far too much
for others i could never be enough
some feel they are too much for me
many of them are very very wise;
for i only appreciate certain types of fire ;)
others believe they could never be enough
yet others still think i judge although i don't,
as life works or it doesn't...
but only till we each find our way
hoping striving working learning growing sharing and daring
so that it all falls oh so perfectly into place
it's just most sensible and honest
that i remain me at all times
in this way i have found no one else limits me
except only myself if i so choose to draw a line | |

| miss michelle finding her way
Posted: 10/20/2006 4:10:23 PM | girl it's gonna be ok
please be strong enough
just for yourself today
seek n begin to find and make
your very unique own way
now c'mon isn't it finally time
let that ole comfy denial fall away
decide and begin if you please
ignore all the meaningless crap
from now forth please
for all of yourself and all others
only good give, good make
and of offered true good take
call your angels closer in
they will heed your cries
i will call mine too
i know you really don't wanna die
so you see i got a few calls
from a lonely friend truly dear
tonight she had a heavy heart
remorse of loneliness laden with fear
her mind and body both swimming
in that fifth of rum
yes i heard your voice shake
but it's ok to cry sometimes
when all ya wanna do is run
so with intentionally glass breaking
onto her wrists she took a shard
making linear cuts while shaking
apologizing so profusely afterward
and yes finally some crying too
stating she didn't no what else to do
she doesn't belong she doesn't fit in
she feels so alone in crowds even
forever shy and turning within
she doesn't know
she's cocooned herself
she's waiting for the time
when she can spread her wings
and leaning toward the sun
she will one day soar and fly
but first there's a bit to do
preparation called life
approached best feeling
secure letting go of strife
the same things that kept
her safe back then
changed completely into new
and just can't right now
in today work right
they just won't anymore do
c'mon, please roll up your sleeves
let loose your tears and heart
release painful spots
however you can manage
reclaim regain your fresh new start
no one said it's gotta be perfect
she doesn't realise all that good
inside enough to let it out
girl it's gonna be ok
please be strong enough
just for yourself today
but woman i tell you true
ain't no nothing worth that
not even your lover departed
or bills and bills and bills
feeling only pain in your heart
remembering all yesterdays faults
not happy either in your work
you call it feeling overwhelmed
problems looming just way too large
get to it real then feel it so
dump the crap all out toss it
to the growing discard pile
while you select what you alone need
turning from now on negativity
seeking out each single positive
girl it's gonna be ok
please be strong enough
just for yourself today
make up all new rules
love sing dance live laugh
but make it all true to you
not just any one's happenstance
just keep on the path and you'll
see, girl it's gonna be alright
find your own way
continue to see each new day
cling to good promises
you made whispered to yourself
as you grow and learn
no one can do it for you
or make it all go away
we each all of us here
on this spinning orb
have to find our own way
best place to begin is
examine your beliefs
and then your ways
make them as similar
as you possibly can
your faith love hope
will lead the way
have i EVER
lied to you before?!
i know you can do it
but first you must
believe and try
just do your best
it's even ok if you cry
really, i know so
girl it's gonna be ok
please be strong enough
just for yourself today | |
