Samadhi Search

Seeking intellectual equilibrium; a heightened state of consciousness...
Perhaps achieved in the moments when inspired to write.
Thus some poetic capering ensues.

(and perhaps a few blog posts of a non poetic nature)

Natural Humanity


14 billion years, dawn alone.
Guardians place, guardians still;
Of creatures wild and tame - flesh, blood and bone;
Of beings green, short, tall, leafy and rainbow frilled.
Travellers from afar visit - hidden holidays:
For love of water and musical ways.
Messages written, spoken, before our eyes and ears;
Comprehension lost, drowning in the maze of years.
Golden Dawn upon us,
Sun Child rises.
Understanding descends,
Minds are open and wiser.
Knowledge fulfilled by Nature, our Charge,
All knowing and seeing in a Universe large.

Message in a Bottle

There is a song the ocean sings
It is the harmony of everything.
The lion's roar breaks on the sand,
The melody of windswept autumn leaves
Dances shore to shore

Frothy steeds draw liquid gold

Across fields of deep blue-green.
I sent you a message in a bottle
Metaphorical, allegorical
And then I lost my soul to sunset
On that chilly Cape Town beach.

Moments In Between

Isn't it strange how the sun I'm watching set off our coast
Is the same sun that has just filled your sky
It's a pity that horizon isn't as close as it seems.

Isn't it funy how the autumn leaves I'm left with here scuttle
All a'rattle and a'quiver
While your summer leaves sing their songs
All a'rustle and a'shiver
Set in motion by the very same wind that carries with it all our dreams.

Seas and miles and continents apart
And yet together
In these moments that are shared
Moments within time
The times when everything is just the same and yet
So undeniably different;

The moments in between.
