Brother Phillip
Perhaps a star in the sky has been added today
to be a guide for those still on Earth
creation ever present in various forms
can we grasp the true meaning of birth?
Or is there permanency in the hearts and minds
to ensure mortals still make impacts
beyond any turn of common language
the eloquent skills that I do lack
For in the shape of human experience
even sorrow has a full measure of grace
knowing that even one life is made better
validates the activity and our proper place
One of a family so possessed...

Eternity
I sit,
Quietly leafing
Through
The tattered pages
Of an old
Hymnal;
There is
Something here;
So remote,
So near;
I bow my head,
Eyes open,
Mutely asking
For mercy.
I cannot
Shake
From my mind
The inexplicable
Eternity
Written
On my heart.
Quietly leafing
Through
The tattered pages
Of an old
Hymnal;
There is
Something here;
So remote,
So near;
I bow my head,
Eyes open,
Mutely asking
For mercy.
I cannot
Shake
From my mind
The inexplicable
Eternity
Written
On my heart.

He's the Sun
He’s the sun
Our source of warmth and light
Can’t you sense how important his presence is?
It’s worth giving up my life.
Just as he died for us
To take in all our earthly sins
If only we could see the big picture
And focus on bettering what’s within.
I’ve loved and lost
I’ve cursed and cried
One moment I’ve hit rock bottom
The next I’m flying on cloud nine.
He’s within each of us
For we’re all his sacred temple
Can’t you feel that blooming warmth?
A soothing caress forever gentle.

For the Golden Dusts in the Valley of Nysa

Joro
I held roses
for the dying heart
a bruise emblem sleeve to footwear
O Wizened Entity, placed in greatness long may those eyes protect,
bless and save thee.
Gatekeepers watch, awaiting those that book passage
into hidden garden grove
thy wooden wise one we place our faith to Your protection
hearth of spirit, looking glass divine
we Your children,dress Your spritely visage
emblazoned emblem, totem to All Faith
She The Goddess praised within place ...

Morning Star
I don't believe in running away
But in the crush I'm fading
*
Before nights, mists, the roiling clouds
The seas untold depth and rolling breadth
Storms unleashed, smiting, thunder and lightning
I know the rains that pelt
And lands parched 'neath searing sun
The chaos of days
Belying plans I've made
All this mine as I wander far from home
A sojourner, stranger
A pilgrim here
Self, dreams, visions I once hoped to be
A future day eluding me
Trapped in loyalty to vows foolish made ...

The Nature of Reality
Existence – our existence is proven by the senses
Where the tactile and intangible come together as one
In and out of where we see ourselves
Reason – we reason at higher levels of understanding
Able to conceive and perceive others as well
Able to achieve humanity and harmony
Knowledge – knowledge should be the gift to each other
To share the essentials and fundamentals
So that we can move forward toward progress
Value – we should value all that has been given to us
Through struggles and triumphs each a lesson learned
And...

Dark
As I stand behind this gate,
it's a prison I might see,
but only when I closed my eyes,
I saw that it was free.
I walk around in darkness,
afraid of every light,
for whatever would I get,
if I never lived in fright?
Consumed by all the heat,
that permeates the ground,
Am I bound by hell,
or Heaven have I found?
I see now in the darkness,
when I look from deep within,
it's there I find the chains,
that kept me tangled in.
Sometimes I want the madness,
for then I feel alive,
but...

WHY I WORSHIP YOU
To me worship includes
adoration, honor, reverence,
awe, valuing, above all else,
declaration of worth and
love beyond the highest meaning.
Why do I worship YOU?
It's not because of your beauty
because you are breathtaking.
It's not because of your intellect
and membership in Mensa.
Why do I worship YOU?
It's not because of your passion
that is off the scale.
It's not because of your sense
of humor which is amazing.
Why do I worship YOU?
It's not because of your wealth
which is in seven figures.

Seven days of the creation
Formed a sabbatic doorway
Upon your chessboard 8 of 8
Male to female material make
Virtue of 3/6/9 pulls mind view
Third eye blindness thus undone
Mental crown into the 9th ascent
Octave of ten bring zero to the one
11 into 12 crossing unknown abyss
Touches supernal unmanifested (1)

When I Lost My Father
When I Lost My Father
May was about to pass into June
Red clover was in bloom
in the fields around Natchez, Mississippi
Honeysuckle vines grew on the fences and trees
Whose flowers were picked by Children
To pinch off the bottom
and taste the sweetness within
“But my blackberry harvest came
long after Dad roamed
The blueberry barrens of Maine
In the solitude of his shyness
When time was a cool breeze
With Grammie...

Finding our way back home
sunlight plays across the wings of a dragonfly,
shatters light in a thousands rays of laughter.
Mirth bubbles up from the well of my soul
With spirits set free,
I drift on the whispered breath of fate,
seeking the beating heart of faith,
finding our power
is belief in one another
I am in the trees,
I am sunlight,
playing tag across golden meadows.
