Being

Being

Being Being

The beingness of all that I am,

on every level of my being,

inflow, outflow,

all encompassed in the stillness of the present moment.

Watching, calmly aware,

stillness pervades the loving eyes of awaremess itself.

Content in the knowingness of its own divinity

A visual poem titled: Simplicity

A visual poem titled
“Simplicity”

LightWithin A visual poem titled: Simplicity
Swirling whirling eternal mists of night,
split the darkness with soft saturnal light.
Rushing, enveloping calmly crashing might,
encroaching the rim of blind forgotten sight.
tenuous, touching delicately poised,
in tremulous silence no sound or noise,
wafts a soft whisper of waking joy,
the childlike awareness of a playful toy.

Poem Titled: Being

Here is a new poem inspired from my painting “Being”

www.awakeningdreams.com poem from the painting titled Being

The centre of ourselves as we really are,
is as bright as the light of a brilliant star.
Enmeshed in the worlds that come from within,
lost from our centre amidst all the din.
Then awake once more to the truth of our being,
we settle in the silence at the centre of our scene.

Alone on a journey, thats all inside,

where there’s never a place to run and hide.

Then awareness awakens to the light within,

giving strength for the journey about to begin.

Timelessness Poem

HomewardBound Timelessness Poem
– Timelessness —

A poignant point on the precipice of time, enfolds the eons in its timeless grasp. A delicacy of movement transcends the spatial spheres. A knot of knowing awakens within the dark depths, alive in awareness of its own unspeakable joy.
