In The Flow, Involved
12-17-14


In the flow, involved with all I can come to know
Not threatened by shadows of ones weal and woe
Come on O, you neighbor and shine and yet glow
What is to give light must endure burning
In that there is so much more than just our learning
So I will write my rhymes
Until I lay my head down to sleep
And I will stay afloat
As I yet delve deep
In the flow involved
Come this result of unbroken concentration
Our dilemma is solved..








This Here Is Love
12-17-14


I focus on a red light on my tree's lower limb
As one to absorb such radiance of another beard trim
Smooth as a baby's behind
Change so is good for the current state of mind
Recapturing this resonance
Soon to decompress and unwind
Where man proposes as God disposes
In which there is so much more to find
Gazing upon a yellow light not far above
As one to be apt to say
That this here is love....








Ode For G.H.
12-17-14


A rebel alone
I was the stone of all stones
A good name to have in the face of it
By my octagram flashing indigo and green
Above and below
What it all can come to mean
Where my cat is a reminder of where I came from
Talking with a sister by the pool
And for her I was a crazy fool
Looking for quality in this quantity
Hoping to put into new use an old tool
Trading my heroes for ghosts
But finding it to be all quite cool...










O, Is There A Better Way
12-17-14


In an enigmatic smile
Running over the same old ground
To tarry for a little while
Taking it easy today was not my style
Like a drummer that lost an arm
But did not give up
O, what an inspiration
To yet log and file
As one to experience those beautiful shadows
Upon my northwest wall
I wait for my guru to ask him about the truth
In how there are better ways to live out my waking
As something I must seek out for myself
In my research of these radishes
And what they can mean to me
When I look deep beneath the beauty of all color...












To Stop But Proceed
12-17-14


As waves roil and churn in this ebb and flow
There is much yet to learn
As one to shoot the curl
And in dreams I find myself a girl
Having another eggplant stir fry
On top of the world if not six feet under
As the message indeed does apply
As one to stand back and observe
To pipe in the music and tonight let it fly
Redeeming the time
When the oaks are corrupt and vain
Writing this rhyme for the cause of the Word and the name
As waves roil and churn...










Shot Of Tea With Milk
12-17-14


Warming up some chamomile
Returning to the roots and herbs
That will make it real
But not according to what I can think and feel
But to lie down tonight to but rest and heal
Proving what is acceptable
Being as this new Creature
As a part of the deal
Sometimes it seems that suffering is essential
To be worthy of taking the meal
We're going for a swim tonight
To befriend our walrus and seal
I'm warming up some chamomile....
