Meditation - A Poem I soar serene etched in silent sky encapsulated in impenetrable eternity a hieroglyph legible to archaeologists of the soul motionless yet a quicksilver flash to the uninitiated eye I exist in this exquisite moment quickly looking down to see my pale face eyes closed gazing inward following my every move body stirs, lips smile stay longer she hints in anticipated pleasure together we share the boundless dimensions of our selves penetrating the Great Mystery and exquisite drama of our momentary lives first published 2000 The Eternal Moment Bookstore Newsletter Coypright The Eternal Moment Bookstore 1997-2011
| War - A Poem Men trot off to war Fear and ideals in their hearts Women watch Had no idea the heart could sustain such pain Deep, black, hollow chasm The loneliness of eternity That moment Each son Gives his mother sorrow Each father Shoves mortality in his child's face Each husband Abandons his wife for allegiance to his nation/bride All are betrayed - new rules suddenly Sunday dinner A few short days ago All laughed casually Everyday lives, obeying all the rules Men die, men are maimed The death of our males brings no one honour. Eradification of anger misdirected. Energy expended. All waste. Mirrored in our society. Smile at the sun. All other joys are illusionary first published The Eternal Moment Bookstore Newsletter Copyright The Eternal Moment Bookstore 1997-2011 |
