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: ▼ |

" O Son of Being!
Bring th yself to account each day ere thou art summoned to a reckoning; for death, unheralded, shall come upon thee and thou shalt be called to give account for thy deeds."
lBaha'u'llah{footnote:#} The Hidden Words , From the Arabic, #31
There's something about the sunset that saddens me.
It is time to face reality!
Did I read from God's word today?
Did I pray?
Did I bring joy into someone's life?
Or did I fall ... [Read more] Answer to Prayer December 19, 2018 at 11:16pm Answers To Prayer

A coffin lays in state
Holding the darkened mirror
That no longer reflects the soul
This link in life' chain
Is not actually broken
It merely vibrates at a higher rate
In the Abha Paradise
Tears of the mourners fall
Watering their own souls
Flute music accompanies
An orchestra of prayers
Into the Abha Kingdom
A ramp of light ascends
From coffin to sun
A path of gold
Over which the soul
Passes into the next world
God's messenger of joy

To Cochise Couyette
The Black Rabbi's
deep brown face is framed
by white beard and hair.
His gold wire rimmed spectacles
rest upon
his deeply furrowed brow.
On the ring finger
of each hand
he wears a thick gold band.
His hands repose
on an open copy of
the Holy Torah.
As he meditates on God's word,
what thoughts
run through his mind?
{dropnote:"Poet's Note:"}I wrote this in 148 B.E. The inspiration was a picture painted by local... [Read more] Book Review: Porigressuve Revelation January 20, 2021 at 2:26pm Book Review:

Voice of Ego-Self:
I see the world enshrouded in a long black veil,
I hear the mournful echoes of the Banshee's wail,
The life that all men cherish, I hold quite cheap,
And find its maintenance not worth the keep.
Voice of God:
Child,
Of the receding night,
Do not flee th e dawn,
Turn in thy head long flight,
To meet the healing rays,
Of My rising light.
Voice of Spirit-Self: I see the world through a veil of tears,
But now its joy ... [Read more] The Age We Live In: Two Poems January 25, 2019 at 1:56pm The Age We Live In:
Poem One
We are living in the dawn of a new age;
The s pring time of a new civilization,
Which at its summer solstice will encompass the whole world.
Poem Two
This is the age we're given,
dark as it is.
All though blood rains for the heavens,
and body parts fall from the sky,
we must take up love's weapons;
we must proclaim the Pen of God's Glory
though heaven and earth arise against us,
and hell crackles at our feet.
Because this is th... [Read more] |
