Thoughts.

If I could but rest awhile
and give up on all my thoughts.
If I could just rest awhile
and forget all there is,

but nought.
I might wake up sufficiently,
to realize,
what I have bought. 

It's lying in my bed at night,
trapped inside this head.
That I can hear the subtle insanities,
of my silly paranoid profanities. 

The damage that we do,
when we wallow in our fears,
is realized in our futures,
as we wonder at our tears. 

It's these deadly silent fears,
that kill our strength of will.
They'll kill our strength of will,
quicker than a malodorous little pill.

It's these negative misgivings,
that poison all our thoughts.
They eat away and contaminate,
all the good that we've been taught.

If I could just rest awhile
and give up on all my thoughts,
I might just find the very thing,
that rich and poor have sought.
The very thing that eludes us all,
that will take us to the source.
Lies deep within our very selves,
and will get us back on course.

If we listen to the silence,
that rests between each breath.
There lies the spring of all our wisdom,
that goes beyond all births and deaths.

The very thing we need to hear,
will be poignant to the moment,
and will guide us step by step,
each day,
till we reach our Divine atonement.

Swimming in Sunshine.

Swimming in sunshine,
bathing in light,
awash in your moon-glow,
never far from your bright.

As I sit quietly, eyes shut,
and the mind starts to roam,
your flickering candle of moth-light,
shepherds me home.

Your beacon of love,
banishes the dark of confusion,
and lights up the path,
that eludes all illusion.

Swimming in sunshine,
bathing in light,
awash in your moon-glow,
never far from your bright.

A Moment In Forever.

Leaping into the air
I leave the world behind me...
and for a second,
all of its worries.

A child again,
for a moment, in forever...
I remember....
busy doing I forget.
Then I spring into the ether
and I remember again,
what it is, that I had forgotten.

But again,
it slips between my fingers like water,
misplaced but not lost,
with faith the only cost.

When I leap into the atmosphere,
for one breath, I am weightless,
for a blink, I am timeless,
for a moment in forever,
I am free.....
