I'm Feeling Diminished

I’m Feeling Diminished

I’ve become obscure in my old age;
when my life is nearly finished;
although a poet; I’m certainly no sage;
feeling somewhat diminished.

All around me, I view others success;
while failure has become my lot;
perhaps, I’ve tried too hard to impress;

Fountains Of Youth

Fountains Of Youth

The river of life flows from a fountain;
flooding the valleys, below;
melted like snow from God’s holy mountain;
life was that melted snow.

We were created as conscious energies;
encouraged to drink from the well;
we are the blend of conscious synergies;
sent down for

Reaping And Sowing

Reaping And Sowing

Why is no apology ever quite enough;
can’t we just say, “I’m sorry?”
Sometimes, I feel like just giving up;

The Futility Of Dreams

The Futility Of Dreams

I live my life; dwelling in emptiness;

an image of the devil’s disguise;

A Mystery Called Life

A Mystery Called Life

Reality is the accumulation of mysteries;
each one; a small part of the whole;
new civilizations; becoming histories;
a mystery, called life, is the soul.

Life is the creation of consciousness;
flowing from the Master’s thought;
perfection requires our righteousness;
in becoming what our Lord
