Even in twilight,Light can reflect,In various ways,Creating a sparkling contentedness,With its beauty and shine. Shed the negative constraints,Of the world around you.Leave behind the weights,That follow you like a cloak,Wearing you further away. Look for the bright spots,That call out to you,Asking for your presence,Waiting for you to join them,Joyful abandon. Step into the stream,Of … Continue reading Poem: Even in Twilight

Poems: Musings of a Raven’s Call
Can you hear the ravens call,Echoing across the fields?As time marches forth,Muse on the changes coming,In the turn of the air. The crisp autumn winds blow,Brushing my face,And so I look to the west.Have the ships arrived,That which bring new tidings,And old faces.They greet their loved ones,Those returning from the sea.My ancestors stand behind me,Ever … Continue reading Poems: Musings of a Raven’s Call
Poem: Bridge the Gap
I can feel the chasm growing,Ever deeper and wider.How do I bridge the gap?I cannot figure out how,But sometimes I wonder,If I should even bother.The winds that are blowing,Keep tearing it down,As fast as I can try to create it.I sense a storm coming.Perhaps I am wrong,About what lies ahead.But again I ask the question,How … Continue reading Poem: Bridge the Gap
Poem: Renewal of the Rural
With the sunset of the city,The sun rises once more on the country,Places of pride for simple ambitions,To live in the fresh air,With the space to grow food,And enjoy the earth.Cancerous thoughts,Have brought low the urban,Loss of activities and more,Burning infernos,Rolling through the streets,Of the skyscraper horizon.Yet new opportunities ariseFor the once deserted towns,Across the … Continue reading Poem: Renewal of the Rural
Poem: Hey Verdant Morn
Hey verdant morn,Is this what you asked for,Are you proud of your war,Fought in the streets and suburbia?Do you see the destruction wrought,And the innocence lost?Far worse than the depths of hell,For the bystanders caught in the violent net,That we call this search of glory,And superiority.Shall you believe that you are better,For admitting your faults,Or … Continue reading Poem: Hey Verdant Morn
Poem: Path of the Anxious Mind
Racing, turning in a loop,Agitated and alert,Looking for the danger,Threatening from nonexistence,As a hamster in wheel,Trapped and unable to leave,Or a train barreling down a track.Give it another route,To roll softly down a hill,But watch for it running back,Onto its original path.It will try to return,So keep vigilant,And give your mind,Another topic to focus on.It … Continue reading Poem: Path of the Anxious Mind
Poem: Of the Farmers
Of the farmers, coal miners, and servants,We are their children, descendants.Their work fuels our blood,Their wisdom our minds.Play the music that connects youTo the memoriesThat belong to you and others.For the beauty of life,Is not in the absence of work,But as a resolution to the effort put forth. Can you feel the energyOf tasks and … Continue reading Poem: Of the Farmers
Poem: Lost Confusion
Lost confusion.Where do you follow?Where do you lead?Do you take the whispering advice?With the swirling colors,The insecurity takes you. So you must take a step,Forward or aft,Into the whirling tides,Of life and energy,Provided by the world. Now you have chosen a path,Have you made all the difference,And if so, is it for the best?Can you … Continue reading Poem: Lost Confusion
Poem: Let the Music Lift You
Let the music lift you,Let yourself drift away,Into another world of energy,Let the world transcend,Into another dimension,Of life, death, love, and more.This immutable yet ever changing energy,That binds us in time and rhythm,To the scenes we have lived,To the flashes yet to come,And to the lives that never shall be,Held by the souls currently here.May … Continue reading Poem: Let the Music Lift You
Poem: Ode to the Daisy Pushers
Let's speak of the daisy pushers,Those who have fallen before,To form the path in front of us.Those of the earth,Once risen with the day,Now in eternal sleep,Keep the tomes of the unknown,From those who stay awake.They lend to you wisdom,And the fleeting knowledge of the end.Many have traversed their path,Rather few have come back,From the … Continue reading Poem: Ode to the Daisy Pushers
