Day 356 - Walking in Flames

Well you used to walk on fire

I always wondered how you did that

How you danced over the pyre

As gracefully as the proud king's cat

But now I understand better I think

You were really walking in the cold

Miles without a drop to drink

All of your dreams long ago sold

To a man who promised you light

To keep you warm and safe from everything

So he gave you flames burning bright

And in wishes for the snow you began to sing

Day 321 - Sunday Drive

Buckle up, my dear and here we go

Where we stops, nobody need know

We are just out adventuring you and I

Until we find where the road meets the sky

And then we will stop and look around

Take some earth from this sacred ground

And lay between the stars light

For by then we will have reached the height

Where heaven welcomes everyone

At the end or only just begun

Ever wishing to feel more alive

We venture out, on our Sunday

Day 245 - A Stairway To Heaven

One at a time even less than that

No need to rush the steps you take

Again you wipe your feet on the mat

Hoping not to defile this for your own sake

You comprehend so very little here

Though each move towards the light erases fear

In black in white it seems too plain

You cannot pull your eyes away

To gaze here your life you train

And still you have only nothings to say

"I'm sorry" or perhaps "now I know"

Depending when you walk into this show

only your own inner dimensions can you see

of this ongoing blindness that is before you

you create the patches and vision on this journey

so the lessons you begin to learn are the truest of true

the blurring edges seem intimidating at best

but at some levels they provide a kind of rest

That cools the heartbeat this place misses

By only containing a soul and a mind

The quietness is the serenity of kisses

Such things are never clearly defined

For that would promise too much knowing

Abandoning the hope of this glowing

Grieving and perfected place

That has only up and down to peruse

Laughing when you try to race

Like the spark along the fuse

You will not feel your end consume you

For none who come here ever do

Day 227 - Journey of Quality

Well now you may see something else

Than what I am trying to say

Considering this picture is longer than

The time you have in a day

Or so it seems to walk and spin

As you let time on the wind, rush in

In a straight line on into complete infinity

We can walk from the end to the beginning

Or in reverse if you prefer, anything is possible

Once you have experienced winning or sinning

Answers are not something you desperately need

Not an opportunity for which you would wish to plead

Walk that journey in your own to shoes

Feeling the pain and calluses on your own feet

That is the splintering of the calm, smooth wood

Meaning you have a chance to be more complete

Completion is blue to blue, shade to shade, one to another

In a connection with the world you could not otherwise discover
