MIDDAY POETRY – ‘Landing’

flying off a push bike
little girl pink skirt
landed in the grass

helmet on the head
bewildered look
ended that fall

straight ahead her dad
who teased the act
by stretching his arms

hight into the sky
as the wheels rolled
down the road

the girl learned quickly
dads cannot be trusted
with advice on flying

without crash landing
inevitably

MIDDAY POETRY – ‘Bliss Meditation’

the silence, the emptiness
caressing the mind

here and there random
thought form, impulse

a wave of bliss
passing through
softly

alertness one moment
close to sleep the next

stillness unmoved
just the slow breath
lifting the ribs

feeling of nothingness
connected to the whole
falling

inside an eruption
fire flowing
in a stream

no resistance
freedom
instead

MIDDAY POETRY – ‘Ungrounded’

free of boundaries
there is no limit to
what can be achieved
in unexpected
situations

hovering above our head
aircraft of uneven shape
soldiers of the stars
landing on earth
ungrounded

unrelated scattered
yet emerging from the one
mind
personal attack on
existence

unite in solitude
resolute and wild
unmoved unshaken
staying true
to the one
heart

love the haters
all they ask is
more compassion
gratitude and love
accept them
gently
disarmed

MIDNIGHT POETRY – ‘Live Until’

So early so much life left
Unexpected departure
Cut from existence
Time of sorrow
For a friend

Reflecting
Living a full life
Cherishing each moment
Finding the hidden treasures
In every heart beat and every eye blink
Breathed by existence
Alive
Until not
