Beloved

Your beauty is all I see 

I want to be with you forever

Beloved come home to me

My love is deeper then any sea

My heart to yours I'll tether

Your beauty is all I see 

Listen and hear my plea

Gentle like the touch of a feather

Beloved come home to me

To my heart you'll have the key

No matter what the weather

Your beauty is all I see 

Together we can make such harmony

All other connections sever

Beloved come home to me

Our love is meant to be

We make each other better

Your beauty is all I see 

Beloved come home to me

Rules

 He stands before me in second place 

Almost beyond compare

Except for the uncompromising beauty 

Of the one whose love I bear

Who knows whose time is coming

When or how or where

Soon the question will be answered

The solution to problems laid bare

Unfortunately the world isn't simply

Drawn in lines straight and square

Sometimes second comes first

Often the world isn't fair

Stories

I onced dreamed of great beauty
Like a lamp burning in the night
My flights turned to fancy
My wonders, endless delight

The world was edged in crimson,
A bastion, a bulwark, and safe
No troubles touched or teased me
No mettle tested my faith

Then came a change and so slowly
A crack in the concrete facade
Like riven rock fording the sea
Like a wave waiting on the esplanade

Retreating to my humble cottage
In my shock, I cast down my eyes
On my bedspread, I found sitting there
On the pillow was the final prize

Unique

Beauty is truth
So don't lie about it
Music is joyful
So don't make it mourn
Our bodies are holy
So don't defame them
Thoughts are precious
So don't scare them away
Words belong to everyone
So don't try to claim them
Take only what belongs to you
Allow others their own uniqueness

Love is...

Love is a hand
Held fast in your own.
Love is a kiss
The sweetest you've known
Love is a hug
The first gentle embrace
Love is passion
Shared by a fireplace
Love is the wind
Whispering in my ear
Love is shared
Throughout pain and tears
Love is present
Haunting and true
Love is the beauty
I see in you

Karana

The lights are all around
'Twix day and night it grew
It's beauty knew no bounds
The brightness seem to woo
As if all love were true
Mist covered hallowed ground
Thence came a horrid sound
Winds cold and fearsome blew
The snap could break your bones
It echoed through the land
Forever cut the cord
There was lonesome moan
A crack of guilded band
A pain that can't be cured

Beauty

Beauty

Beauty is not ephemeral.

Beauty is permanence, passion,

Fleeting moments do just that,

They fly away.

What matters is what stays.

The fire that burns,

Way down deep in your soul,

Too far down to be quieted or quenched

By an uncaring gaze.

In your memory, it will reside

Forever.

It lives in the collective unconscious.

Like a heartbeat;

Steady, Solid,

Undeniable,

It waits upon it’s time.

To question beauty,

Is to question one’s own self.

If you doubt what is real

Know only this,

The truth in beauty lies,

In knowing oneself.

If you do not take the time now

To know and love yourself,

You can never know love,

Or Beauty

Every Day

There’s beauty in decay

There’s life in death

For by fighting for our lives

We fight for every breath

We cling to the everyday

We want for so much more

When in reality

We’re looking for the next score

Looking for the easy answers

When we need to find our hearts

There’s never easy answers

We all need brand new starts

Touch the Infinite, Gravitate to all you can be...

Reach up and touch the Infinite

Gravitate to all you can be

For once be more than just human

You’ll be amazed at the marvels you’ll see

Shells become visions of beauty

There’s a pattern mathematic, precise

They sing with orchestral harmonies

A record will no longer suffice

A snowflake is a thing of wonder

Some say that each one is unique

But I can define its precise shape

By a formula, I guess I’m a geek

But all of these figures and numbers

All wonders and beauties abide

Are nothing without being partaken

By friends, right there, by your side

Stars Taunt Us

Dazzling Stars that shine too bright

How do we know that you really exist?

Could you be an illusion we invented?

A brief figment,

Brought forth to cause us sorrow?

For having seen such beauty,

Why should we breathe?

Or is it a tease?

This real life,

We can only feign touch?

Is this all

A hallucination,

Or dying brain trying,

To convince us, to hold on?

I think I like that least of all.
