Rose
Criticizing and
Nit picking
Is like
Tearing the
Petals from a rose one by one
Because you think they are not good enough;
The wrong color,
The wrong shape.
Getting sad and angry because all that is left is a stem
With thorns.
All along
You
Never minded the roots
And you blame the rose,
Refusing to admit your part.
You were not there for the planting of the seed.
You did not witness the growth of the roots
Yet you stand and criticize in anger and disappointment.
The mind and heart will only continue to see ugly if one thinks and acts ugly.

The Wolf
Years ago,
As I sat with friends
Along the banks of a magnificent river
In the untamed wilderness;
(All was silent except for the sound
Of the river)
My eyes grazed the
Opposite bank and
I was awestruck
To see a large black wolf
Come off a game trail.
He
Stepped out of the woods.
There stopping and locking
Inquisitive eyes
With us.
He was magnificent;
Splendid in his stance.
I could not move,
Could not breathe.
In that moment I felt something so primal
And beautiful inside;
As if connected beyond comprehension of the mind.
This has stayed with me always.
I know in nature
Honest
Unexpected
Answers come forward
When you are ready to listen.

Well
An artist
Will spend a lifetime
Exploring and expressing
A well of emotions
Which has no end.

We
Realizing we,
Trembling in touch.
A power conscious
Brought us here,
Unimagined in the human mind.
A seeing beyond
Blood and bone,
A realization.
Every step,
Change of mind,
Everyone ever known
All flowing
In the knowing
To keep all of this going;
Our paths to meet.

Passing
Cars passing by.
Faster, faster they go.
People are chasing time,
Yet
It is everywhere
And nowhere to be found,
Merely in their minds.
Rush. Stop. Go.
Pursuing what?
Nobody knows.
Dec15
Defy
Defy your fears.
Take courage of heart
And
Rise.
Lift yourself up and out,
Into the sunlight.
Rest there as long as you need
Feeling heat upon skin;
Breathing air into the neglected depths
Of your lungs.
Here you will feel once more
The blood beating through your veins.
Remember yourself.
Listen. There is your heart song.
Allow yourself to weep,
Allow yourself to sing.
One, two , three inhale and roar.
One, two, three take a chance and soar.

There
There we
Are in the center of this storm.
The signals we emit rise above
The chaos.
Hidden frequencies interpreted by
Our
Primordial senses
Underneath it all;
Through it all.
Eyes closed,
We find one another
Once again.

Turn
Knowing reality well enough,
I turn to wonderment
And creativity.
Once again
I find myself smiling.

Despair
Oh despair
Why do you visit me?
I know you are coming
Yet
Still unexpected.
I feel your devious intentions,
Creeping in the shadows.
Arriving uninvited to
Spite me.
Mocking laughter in satisfaction,
Scratching at my door
In my finest hour
To
Coat my vision in
Black
And cloud
My path;
Nip at my heels
As i try to evade your touch.
