New Year’s Eve – EvenSong

       EvenSong

Celebration     Contemplation
Transitions flame bonfire
Visions     pastPresentfuture

Overhead   South and West converge
Folding clouds at right angles
To screen the moon     Light
Increases shadows depth
Clarity penetrates midnight
Calmly birthing     Unease
       ---December 31, 1995

METAMORPHOSIS, 1989 - Second Edition NOW Available.

“Do we sink, swim”

Do we sink, swim
Or endlessly tread water?
This seesaw life of constant choice
Must yield to the Balance within
If Existence is to continue.

Empty Garden

Yesterday, the thought, if imaginable,
Would have been quickly dismissed.
Yet today, I know and can feel
A complete Emptiness in my head;
And at this moment, begin to wonder
Whether I should attempt to fill it
With something new and meaningful.

A Dream

I am with Child
I sense its presence
I feel its movement
I know its thoughts

Finally I understand
The Cosmic Child is within me
Restlessly waiting to be Birthed
Into the Light of a New Day

The Child’s Bark

Lurking as a shark
Is the dog’s empty bark.
It has pierced your soul
For tis love she demands
Not gravy in the bowl.

She is not so unlike us
In many ways,
For like a child
In her innocence she plays.

Immaculate Conception III

Undivided    Unconditioned
Incorruptible Light pulses
Through a possible Future Age
Into the timelessness of Now
To nourish the Child and its host
As they both rapidly mature
Through transformational stages
To ultimately coexist
In the Oneness of Cosmic Man

Children of the Sun VII
```
Spinning and wobbling
Through long days and nights
Mother Earth shudders
As her passengers
Travel the rutted roads
Of emerging thought
