that thing you do...

 
 
 
"That little weird thing people tell you to stop doing--don't, it's what makes you, YOU.
"My candle burns at both ends, however short the night."
"Giving someone the shirt off your back accomplishes just about that."
"The right time is always available, it is you who must be right for the time."
"the highway to Heaven is a very crowded way."
"What happened to the road less traveled?"
"Why must the 'best of times' always include some of the 'worst'?"
"We only give to get."
"I have become my own prisoner."
"The last time you were here, might be the last time."
"Without the shelter of Spirit, even the mind-body sex exercise is only that."
"The real me has no smiles or tears or waiting or lying or any Truth to bear."
"Do you not yet see all the others hearts beating within me?"
"A resting place is not a destination."
"Win some, lose some, you never get even."

the road

                                                
                                                                              " Do you know the Gift is on the road you just passed by?"

"The same road you pass daily, nightly and even in your Dreams?"

"It is in the same passage-way that all must pass on their way beyond their beliefs about Heaven and Hell."

never satisfied



Gallery Title :  Beaches


Tanzania shoreline coast beach


Known as the "Island of Spices," Zanzibar, Tanzania, produces a variety of crops including cinnamon and nutmeg. But it's the cloves that dominate the economy—and the scent in the air.

Somewhere in you and me
there breathes a taunting spirit
yearning to be free.
As long as your heart
and mine are bound
by the same heavy anvil
that allows no sound;

 then neither of us
will ever know
how deep the Passion
within us could grow;
what Gifts lay within
what happiness would show!
when the Power of Acceptance
and LOVE are Bestowed.

what walls would fall
by the undeniable devotion
of our call.!
what Healing Gates
would swing away
the windows of Heaven
for this holy day!

Yet, words do nothing more
than lay on a page,
it is the WE, of you and me,
who must deliver the
Promises of all that can be.

Don't tell me it can't  be done!
Because Fear could not be
overcome.
Today was someone's last one
No tomorrow will dance with
Memories more sure.
Should WE become the image
of  Passions
 Unrehearsed...Uncast.

All  the movement
of  a  hunger  never satisfied,
always exhausted in
hurry...and
forever  denied.

we met



The image “http://www.photoseek.com/04WY-0400-TetonSunriseSchwabacher.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

It was here that we met our unforget
Twisting turnings became the shadow of our yearnings
Days into years of tears
And while you have gone to another Song
I am left to remember that sweet September
When on retreat we found one another's heart beat
Rest and wander the spell you travel under
For in some eternal still,  you will once again be birthed to feel
And track the wind spun sands, set to seek the only imagined,
and
   timeless...understand...?

May 02

into the sea



 
 
 
 
 
 
 
What living by the Ocean does for me...

With a small garden cottage
And beautiful changing shades
of water, as far as you can see.

Sunsets magenta, orange with
purple in their range
of dust mixing with
shimmering waters cool and aqua-blue
                    Bring thoughts of a joy conceived                       
a mirroring  sweetness
and I am at once relieved.
Walking in sands wet
leave only brief remnants
to attest we were
once and yet...
                                                                                                                                                                  
 In  such moments 
expected tides
rush in, and return
to the Inn of
 of our beginning divides.

Waves burst spray upon the day
pulsating with each rise
Wherein lies our unfailing wise.

As every tidal wave is born anew
We can know the rebirth
of  Freedom
As they do.
.
The brief inner commotion
Learns to let the shattering go
And with the sea,
Enters the Eternity of the FREED..

~rom~

This day is done,
I wander
its mysterious passage,
searching for the answer
to how was it done?
In memory,
the early morning
presenting  an un-do-able
face
countered in uncertainty,
I let go to
chances of grace
to find rare in measure
the gentle hearts of
dear friends I do so treasure.
Not smothered in hot noises
or bothersome blunders
I let my happiness
be fed by happy wonders,
 in the unexpected met
waiting for a bus, a train,
a gentle soul I won't forget.

Then sweeter still the laughter
with an old friend
picking up in that way
of feeling you were there
everyday.

Tales  harvested news, common
clues of our nexus
Flowers arranged with care
as usual were there.
The ease of conversation
passed in pauses but
none in regret.
