Circle of Faith

The Great Spirit speaks
and humanity responds
to the voice of love.

The Great Spirit speaks
encircling the globe with love;
with His Covenant.

The Great Spirit speaks
through the Mirrors of His Manifestations
to each generation.

when you are alone in a room.

You are the only person

Echoes From The Soul

Poetry is echoes from my soul,
descending through mind's corridors,
Whispering to my animal brain,
melodies of spiritual reality.

Rhyme is the right brain's interpretation,
of music descending from my spirit.
rhythms whose immortal melodies,
transcend physical reality.

Verse is the left brain's translation,
of echoes descending from my soul,
words cannot adequately express,
spiritual reality.

Trust in God

Trust in God!
He is the strong,
         the invincible,
         The eternal creator.

Trust in God!
He sees us--
         not for what we are but--
                             for what we can be.

Trust in God!
His grace is eternal,
and His gifts are unending.

Meditation on Life in the Universe

Matter's spiral connects
gender to gender,
forming the double helix
that connects generation to generation.

Life is a spiral ascending
the ladder of evolution;
ring by ring Being climbs
out of the mire of matter.

Nebula by nebula
planetary systems condense:
are born into the realm of matter.

Star by star
life forms advance:
climb the spiral of evolution.

Thank God it’s Friday; workweek ends;

Evening song of the workweek;
Looking forward to the weekend.
Freedom’s echo; autumn song of the week.

Earth's Pain

Listen carefully
You can hear Earth’s scream echoing
Off the tops of mountains.

Listen to her agony
As mountain tops are removed
To feed corporation’s bottom line.

Listen as her pain
Reverberates
Through atmosphere and mantel,
As her children
Obedient to the gods of greed
Behead her mountains
And fracture her stone hard bones.

sap from the Tree of Life;

To An Automible

Consuming in hast miles of macadam,
You transport me in belted security,
From dusk to dawn and back again.

Gulping gallons of volatile liquid,
Your horses purr like feeding kittens,
As your respiration poisons the air I breath.

Without you I am confined to to a snails pace,
Or to the queue waiting for a bus,
Or dependent on the kindness of other human beings.

Summer Night Meditation

On summer nights
crickets sing ballads
to the man in the moon.

On summer nights
the man in the moon
is slowly transported
across the ebony firmament.

Olives ripen
on summer nights
their verdant green skins
are transformed into rich ebony.

Sweet Nothings

Combing
the palm trees straggly hair
the wind whispers sweet nothing in their ears.

Poet's Meditation

Deep
in material tranquility
yesterday reposes.

Yesterday
whispers its diurnal wisdom
in the reverberation of rhythm.

Deep
in spiritual tranquility
tomorrow reposes.

Tomorrow
whispers its eternal wisdom
in the reverberation of rhyme.

The Poet's Job

When Divine Revelation occurs
and God's Manifestation appears
the poet detects the change in the wind
and inscribes it in the annals of history.

A New Day Coming

A new day coming
when the three onenesses shine
resplendent across the Earth.

A new day coming,
a day of peace and unity,
of humanity's maturity
when the oneness of God,
the oneness of religion,
and the oneness of humanity
are reflected in the interactions
of culture and civilization of the planet.

God's Gift

The gift of the Almighty
is unity and oneness:
God's names are many,
while His essence is one,
humanity is a single species,
and all religions share a common foundation.

Search for the answers
that satisfy both mind and soul
the human intellect is God's gift;
humanity must find answers that satisfy
both our scientific and spiritual curiosity.

In the New Year
the Seven Sisters dance again
twirling around the black bear,

Wake Up Call

Wanting the sun's healing touch,
the pain
in my right knee
wakes me on cold mornings.

I get up,
see the face of morning
in the rising sun,
hear the voice of dawn
in Las Vegas' collective yawn,
and taste
the sun's warm kisses
in hot sips
of black coffee.

to determine truth

and to find salvation
through the Lord of Revelation.
