Within the calm of the twilight
Beneath the rays of the night
There lies a peaceful meadow
With flowers and butterflies that shine ever so bright
Within the shadow of your thoughts
Beneath the veil of blindness in your dreams
There lies a path of light
That belongs for only your eyes to meet
Within the chambers of your heart
Beneath the reality of life and all its parts
There lies a place of solace
With answers and knowledge for an eternity
Within your soul
When I look
When I listen
I close my eyes
I feel
It is here
It is behind me
Beside me
Inside me
It is whispering
“Listen with your mind”
Ears can not hear
The hauntingly soft sound
The whisper which rings in my mind
Echoing louder than thought
“Listen with your heart”
“…hear my call,
I am here.
Look for me with closed eyes”
“Find me,
I am here
In the eye of the mind
With the voice of your soul”
It never left…
Life is different with the knowledge
Passes by on a contrastive journey
Between ignorance and understanding
What the implications are for choosing to listen…
Are yet to be learned, simply live and listen…
Do not experience pain
Do not yearn for the past
The past is a trick of desire
Desire is the trick of the mind
The mind is the trick of time
Time is the trick of space
Space is infinite as is life
Experience life with semi closed eyes and an open soul
Experience the soul with an unyielding grasp
When I think of it
I feel sorrow partly for it
I feel sorrow and pain for myself
To want more time with it
Is that wrong?
Now I wait with closed eyes, for that is the only place I will feel it
Behind closed eyes is where I can hear it
Behind closed eyes I can see it, in my infinite mind
For eternity…
Can you feel it? Do you know what it is?
Remind me of the time
I failed to listen to the ticking minutes, I only saw the days.
Remind me of the place
I failed to hear the thundering rain, I only tasted the lightening.
Remind me of the moments
I failed to watch the meanings of winter, I only heard the laughter of spring.
The moments, places and times filled with light and senses. Emotions and tears. Remind me of all I missed
Your happiness wanes with the moon, fear not.
For as the darkness swallows the light,
remain certain,
it shall wax.
The cycle shall be new.
Life is a road, our futures foretold
In a mirror we peak, our destiny we seek
What we call our journey is perhaps an adventure
Life is the vision, forever an endeavor
The distance seems long, at times the timing seems wrong
For our life is written on pages not given
In the book only He reads
In the library only He seeds
For God grants us life
For God grants us strife
We make it and take it
We break and forsake it
We sow it
We grow it
If only we know it
What have you but a Journey?
What have you but one life?
What say you today?
The one who says this is all?
What say you today?
The one who claims to know the meaning of the fall?
Our Journeys will unfold
Our lives will come to One
And in that time
We shall see
And in that time
All shall be
We live but one Life…
That one life universal
That one Life is but one…
What is one?
One is alone
One if Infinite
I am here in your mind
the light of your desires
the solace of your dreams
I am here in your soul
The greatness of your spirit
The fullness of your heart
I am your intentions
the power you wish to hold
the strength you wish to be
I am your visions
the happiness of your soul
the clarity you wish to see
Do you know who I am?
I am you
you are me
we are one
we are free
Now do you know me
With you gone there have been less smiles for me to see
There have been fewer hugs
Fewer moments of happiness
Fewer twinkles in the sky
I remember the twinkles in your eyes
With you gone there have been less memories to make
There have been fewer jokes
Fewer looks of dis*approvals 
Fewer moments of tricks to play
I remember the tricks you would play
With you gone there have been three less Birthdays
Three less Fathers Days
Almost three years less here with me
Doesn’t mean the end of smiles between us three
Perhaps the time is shared between
A new day before
Breaks the waves on distant shores
Yet the dawn has woken anew
Heaven and Angels are waiting with you
You smile and wave farewell
The birthday has passed
The memories swell
AS the tears to bid you
Happy Birthday
I will always remember you…
I will always Love you
June 14th 1948- December 18, 2006
Be grateful for birthdays, you never know how many years you have to share with the people you love… make them special.
As light gets shrouded
And silence veiled
As dark gets brighter
And wind has failed
We walked in shadows
Our minds a cage
We flew in moonlight
Our soul won’t age
For dark once gathered
On a forsaken stage
The light, the dark, play harmoniously
Written words of a sage
The night obscured
Once dark is now pure
Our senses gathered
From a tremulous tour
As consciousness woke
From words we spoke
We found our souls not with our mind
We found our soul had escaped the beginnings of time
What do you see when you look all around?
Life
or is it death in waiting?
What do you hear when you listen to the sound?
Laughter
or is it perhaps your mind is crying?
What do you feel when you touch the ground?
Fire so cold
Ice so hot
What do your senses say they’ve found?
For now They know not
Or why
It Pains you, your desires
What do you know?
These Emotions
Are they?
Or are they hallowed words and meaningless songs
What is real?
This Illusion
Is it?
Or is it as clear as the vision of the mind
What is truth?
This Reality
Is it?
Or is it the fabrication of time
