Logic’s Altar

For so long
I’ve worshipped
At logic’s altar
The cold linear stone now
Seems empty to me

Time to go within
Into mystery
The unspoken certainly
Arising from hope
And the love
For beauty

Seek Out Love

Seek out #grace, #joy and #love. Fill your hearts with #life.

My Next Star Wars Haiku: Luke Skywalker


Youthful frustration

Bring held back from greatness 

Greatness would not wait 

One theme in mythology: destiny cannot be resisted. 

The Importance Of Heart 

To conquer your fears

Your heart must be prepared

It’s critical strength 

Tonight’s Haiku: Remembering You

On the edge of dreams
I can see your eyes, briefly
Sadly, time’s mists win

A Poetry Challenge To Myself

“Broken Dreams” by andziadesign

Every so often, I like to challenge myself with my poetry. Today I logged into Bing Images, grabbed the first one, and crafted the haiku below.

A heart bursting forth
Anguish is encompassing
This near winter night

 

This Autumn Day

Love this autumn day
Which has crested into night
Now rest, finally

Winter’s Edge

Life is beautiful

Yet also cruelly brutal

I feel winter’s edge  

The strange dichotomies of life. Finding beauty with the deep sadness upon friend’s wings. At times I feel an awkward wonder at what our heart’s hold at the same time. 

The Light Is Born

Within the darkness

Are the parents of the light

Violent beauty
