Extreme Beauty

 video

 a pool of sunlight on the ocean
far away from shore
glitters as the air in motion
ripples more and more

water molecules caressed by
molecules of air
through which sunlight bounces to my
eyes and everywhere

in the landscape all around me
where mountains reach the shore
the shimmering interplay that I see
makes my spirit soar

into space, into the aether
into the in between
unto a state where I am neither
awake or in a dream

in a place of extreme beauty
and seeing such a sight
relieved that I have done my duty
dissolving in the light

glittering with the air in motion
far away from shore
a pool of light in rippling ocean-
wanting nothing more...

Clouds

 video

 the metamorphosis of water droplets
high up in the sky
in symbiotic relationship
with the air that's blowing by

shape-shifting ephemeral images
for anyone to view
'all the world's a stage'... above
there's always something new

dragons, angels, jellyfish
UFOs and more
inkblots in the heavens -
that's what they are for

expanding collective consciousness
lifting up our minds
elevating vision
as separateness unwinds

with the metamorphosis of water droplets
high up in the sky
in symbiotic relationship
with the air that's blowing by...

Serendipitously

 video

 no other time
no other place
falling in love
in outer space

in what is between
where we have been
and where we will be
serendipitously

in the embrace
of each other to face
what is to come
without the Sun

while spinning around
in currents we've found
to a new star,
so very far

beyond all we've known
to a new home
falling in love
rising above

in the embrace
of each other we face
no other time
in no other place....

Somewhere To Be Alone

 video

inside the mind is where to find
somewhere to be alone
where no one can enter anytime
and no one is on the phone

peaceful and calm, free from all harm
in the centre around which we spin
without alarm as if by a charm
in what is found deep within-

inside the mind is where to find
somewhere simply to be
to write a rhyme, to slip out of time
to hover blissfully

where no one can enter at anytime
where no one is on the phone -
inside the mind is where to find
somewhere to be alone..

No One's On the Phone

video

 inside our brains, inside our hearts
inside us everywhere
electric charges' nano darts
spark from here to there

hippityhop they never stop
bringing  life as we
sink or swim, rise to the top
while moving tidally

in a  flow we'll never know
unless we disappear
surrendering to the unseen glow
of all the life we're near

intertwining beyond mind in
consciousness that's shared
in moments blissful we are finding
a universe which cares

inside mind, the place to find
somewhere to be alone
where no one enters anytime
and no one's on the phone...

I See Mountains

 video

 I see mountains, I see rivers
I see the endless sea
I see forests who are givers
To you and too to me

all surrounding life's abounding
it's in the air I breathe
it's astounding that I'm found in
a state of mind that weaves

what's becoming into one in
a conscious tapestry
with the glory of the Sun in
everything I see

in the mountains here surrounding
in the endless sea
in the lifeforms here abounding
symbiotically

in the air that I am breathing,
in biomes inside me
in the tapestry I'm weaving
in this poetry

with the glory of the Sun in
each word and every rhyme
with the fun, becoming one in
the present time...

Foreboding

 video

 hurricanes of thoughts and fears
tornados in the mind
always something coming nears
it's not a place to find

serenity, nirvana, bliss,
or simple happiness
states of mind that we all miss
cy wanting more not less

imagining what is to come
visions with more pain
forgetting that we all are one
we are much the same

breathing in and out and in
rhythmically aligned
with the world that we are in
peace, a state of mind

serenity, nirvana, bliss
thoughts, a pleasing stream
it is always more than this
dark foreboding dream.
