I have a couple of poems to share today.
I think this one could be titled "Transcendence"
deeper down
farther up
mysteries
unseen realities
connection to
something so big
ultimate perspective
a place not in space
a moment not in time
cosmic plug-in
a quest
of quiet freedom
strive
but contently accept
perplexity
simple complexity
be with the questions
allow answers
to fall
I think this next poem is sort of an antithesis to the previous one. I don't think it has a title yet.
Quiet!
The noise in my head,
badgering practicalities,
song fragments skipping like a scratched record.
Can't you just settle down
and let me listen
for needful things:
Spirit wind,
grace and peace,
purpose and meaning.
Your selfish shallow clamor
erodes my existence.
Where you are,
life cannot be lived
as life is -
beautiful, sacred,
epic.
I'm grateful that you took the time to read these poems. I'd be even more grateful for a comment! I'm not looking for empty praise, but I'd love to know how these lines connected with you.
