In branches of light

In branches of light

Petals multiply
In intervals of breathing
exhaling essence

My heart reaches out
seeking out the knowing mind
hidden in the eye

With careful fingers
I unveil the flower’s core
Myriads of colours

There are silent trees
tall yet minute they resume
growing in my heart

Winding through mazes
they teach me the wise lessons
of imbued stillness

We wait together
for the peace that was revealed
in branches of light

The soul sits so still

The soul sits so still

The birds chirp outside
their hymns a mortal lace spun
across my eardrums

Heart favours sunset
when the call of birds subsides
nightfall slows their trill

Mind sings to quaver
an echo forms its tendrils
while the dusk falls through

My head seeks not sound
eye reaches out for twilight
ensnared by evening

Birds’ lilts in decline
a chirrup within mindscape
follows afterglow

The mind now shines bare
silence gained within the core
the soul sits so still

Recreating Life

Recreating Life

The anger welled up

Within the bosom that flared

Like forest aflame

 

It bore no logic

Curving through the mind’s landscapes

It shattered all sense

 

Easing through the flames

My worded intention spun

Recreating Life

The days may seem bleak

The hours may turn into weeks

Hark! The angels speak

 

Keep your mind hopeful

There is no need for a fight

Make it effortless

 

Know it in your heart

Know it through the changing times

Our future is bright

Staring at its grace

Willow tree stooping over

All magic peeks shuns

 

Review my beauty

With attention’s past glamour

Look ignores appeal

 

When eye sees beauty

With too self-centred intent

The view loses charm
