Poetry Wrote Over Several Years on Spiritual, Religious, and Devotional Subjects. |
Devotional Poetry My Search I Into the mystic realm, I let my mind take flight, Over stone strewn highways, I search the endless night. I was the Wanderer, Looking for a goal, And the Seeker, Searching for my soul. I walked the roads of idle fancy, Paths of material delight, Stumbling over stones of vain imaginings, In my search for the light. A voice deep within me cried: "Here doesn't lay your goal, Upon these darkened pathways, You'll never find your sou." II Into the mystic realm, Again my mind took flight, Over well traveled highways, I search the misty twilight. I was a Seeer, Seeking an unknown goal, And a Stranger, To my own soul. In this realm of half-light, I strolled the roads of tradition, Picking my way carefully, Through the shadows of superstition. Still from within came the cry: "Not in this realm is your goal, Upon these half-lit pathways, You'll never find your soul" III Into the mystic realm, Again I took flight, And walked the paths, Where God has shed His light. I walked the hallowed highways, Trod by the Prophets of old, Strolled the ancient paths, Strewn with nuggets of pure gold. This is the wondrous realm, Where all paths become one, This is the glorious land, Illuminated by God's sun. Through the Word of God, I have found my soul, In the Messenger for this age, I have found my goal. Poet's Note: ▼ |

It's like the flowing water washes away their sins.
Steve Reeves
Cullasaja its
Head resting in the mountains
its feet in the sea
Flows in silent majesty
Down spectacular
Falls the Sweet Water of the
Cherokee descends
As Cullasaja
Flows through Appalachian towns
Its water extra-
Ordinary cleanses the sins
Of those immersed in its depths
{dropnote:"Poet's Note:"}I wrote this in 148 B.E. The inspiration was an article about the Cullsaja.

Forget the entanglement of love:
Forget not the practice of charity.
Fortune Cookie
Forget the entanglement of love:
The webs that passion weaves;
Entanglement in gold cords
of souls imprisoned by desire;
Love for the whore of Babylon.
Forget not the practice of charity.
Not in the pursuit of pleasure is
The soul's joy found.
Practice the divine attributes
O charity, hop, and faith;
Love of God and humanity.
