Expand

We expand our imaginations
Explore our lives-every moment,
While carried forth-majestic forces
Thus collide endlessly, so free
Until we expire in our imagination.

Morning Gales

Morning gales, whirling upon me
In the heart of sought salvation,
Thoughts colliding, morning gales
Nearing thresholds of light
Take me, make me awake so alive
Across time, ebbing in empty flight.

Girl Sleeping

Girl sleeping across the isles
What dreams behold her
What dreams do take her
Thoughts occurring, stirring up
Into her restless—resting mind
Unmoving—motionless against movement.

Profound

Profound images capture expressing death
Onwards, floating upwards souls progress
Hours contain unrest, time sputters into oblivion,
Bodies once alive, whole—resting for an eternity
While we falter against time, taking flight.
Emotions catching fire in the night
Our devotions arise into hopeful futures.

Will the Willful

Will the willful stand high;
Of steadfast courage
Strength & compassion
Heal the sorrow
Upon this delicate time.
You are not alone
For upon this journey
The love of you family
Holds dear to your heart.
While seasons change,
Sun-rays become light, such darkness
That is felt will lift away
Through spirits of health.
For such beauty that is everlasting
Thus remember times of joy,
For all your grief and pain
And the bellows of the
Stormy nights will
Vanish away,
Leaving the light of
Compassion to fill you’re
Life and those that are close
Will never let you go.

Charge of Electricity

Charge of Electricity sprints upon me
Springs upon you, so attractions occur,
Inspires, transpires our minds
With present—loving energies,
Within, around, and surrounding
Which ever way we choose to go.

Lamppost

The Lamppost seen in night
Alone out in the cold hours,
Indeed casts halo of golden light
Aware of wild thickets near by
All around—blessed golden light
Strangles; lonely cries echo.
Smoke from tobacco soothes,
Hindered mind, haunted now
Though voices that trample
In an empty space I am here
Watching beams of golden light.

Ending Our Final Conflict

In the end our final conflict arises
Against our once lived lives,
Our resolutions now defined
Legacies endowed upon our future.
Each our own destinations varies
These last final moments contain
Before our final impact arrives
We are drafted into heaven or hell.
Our statements written down,
Often lonesome in these moments
Our once nourishing lives wither away
Through other generations we must live
That we do not abandon this state of mind.
