Beach on Infinity
Image
There’s a secret beach I travel to ..
Beach on Infinity
And we walked along
the guarded path
where the pygmy loves
could not tread,
to the sands of the sacred beach
on a sea of infinity,
to that place in the sand
where the setting sun
froze and
stood still as a pearl.
And our dreams crystallized
into cast
grains of salt
all around us.
There with our feet
grounded In the sand
of a cosmos
of a million realities,
Our love became
a piercing of the heart.
Our tears became bubbles
that rose upwards
and burst into the air
that was thick
with the moment
of a golden light,
and with a fleeting
despair,
quickly melting
into a night of stars.

Void Voice
Image
Void Voice
I was tired
you gave me rest .
I was desolate
consumed by a void
till I heard
A silent sacred voice
Spilling into it
so very clearly
In a sparkling flow
Peace relieve me.
Grief let me learn to
live with less .
Give me more of that
stark and simple insight
courage
so that I can
Openly confess
that all is one .
My Father
Image
My father used to ask
where are you ?
And I would say
here I am.
Now I ask him
Where are you ?
And in the silence
Of night dreams
He says :
here I am .
Broken Angel
Image
Broken Angel
Broken angel
sitting on the steps
out on your own
You’ve lost
A friend,
And love;
I know,
It’s so hard to be alone
Broken angel
I’ve been there
Once before.
I remember.
It seems it was so
Many years ago
Your arms
Are bruised
Your wings are torn
You heart is shattered
Broken angel
Are you able to perform
The miracles
by night again?
Broken angel
I know it’s just
Not right,
But that’s just how
It seems to go,
you have to fight,
The deepest darkest
battles all alone at night
broken angel.
Broken angel
You’re the only angel
that I know.
There were others
Once but they all
gave up and had to go.
They all just
turned around
and flew away.
They’ve gone
for good now
broken angel
and so I ask
If I can stay,
And spend this night
On simple steps
with you aglow
so we
can fight
this darkness
that we know
together
till the early morning
light of day.
You and I both together,
won’t be long,
Till the coming
Of the early morning dawn
my broken broken angel.
Love in Now

Love in Now
Touch this body
Touch this mind
Take my hand
and let’s embrace
each other from inside
I am here
I am yours and you
Are mine
and There’s only
Just a point of vacant space
and time
left for all our loving ,
Left for this love we’ve made
Thoughout the years
Sharing, serving secrets
in the dark
and if tomorrow
In a flash of morning
sparks
This all
just ends
And
This body you have held
Is lowered softly
with the simple earth to meld ,
Just a measured breath
graced by loving angels
then
What matters is
Our love in now
so lets love again
and it will be alright
Love each other
Deep tonight
Once again
enfolding body soul and mind
So sweetly in this dark
Thats lit by love
and burning candles .
Your hands are mine
And mine are yours
This Love of mine ,
this love of yours .
Here together in
this flowing river
we call time .
And I
Image
And I
The thoughts
Of you are with me
And the ice
of your prescience no more,
Numbs me, I alone
And walking from
This strong tree
existence .
I join you
in a note of
Oblivion & shadow
Nature as small
as ladybug shade
crawling across
shoulder
