Ready To Bloom
Ready To Bloom
As old as mankind is young.
Whispering winds carry to all shores.
Darkness unable to defeat it.
Many songs have been sung.
Existing during famines, depressions, wars.
The flame never extinguished, always lit.
Needed by the wicked and the holy.
Floating in the air we breathe.
Swimming in streams and lakes.
Shared by all, even the lowly.
Often unseen, surviving beneath
The chatter of societies fakes.
A glimmering rose in a desert sun.
A star breaking forth in a moonless sky.
The cradling...

Light and Soul
A blitz poem. (You can find out more about this form at http://www.shadowpoetry.com/resources/wip/blitzpoem.html.
Light and Soul
Heavenly fire
Heavenly light
Light from above
Light strongly descending
Descending to earth
Descending swiftly
Swiftly carrying the word
Swiftly lighting
Lighting the world
Lighting for all to see
See with your eyes
See with your heart
Heart of man
Heart of the son of man
Man sinning
Man learning
Learning to be free
Learning from the tree of knowledge ...

Life
Life
In the most unexpected places.
Seemingly sprouting from nothing at all.
Supposedly, distantly, arising from a Big Bang.
The components needed in all future cases.
Spreading, spreading, as the universe became long and tall.
Basic chemicals becoming life, nature’s Yin Yang.
From microscopic to mammoth,
Life finds a way to exist and survive.
Diversity apparently a crucial key.
Never resting, not even on the Sabbath.
Always working to stay live,
The ultimate busy bee.
Even within the same community you can see...
