What traditions have you not kept that your parents had?
No parents!
What traditions have you not kept that your parents had?
No parents!
Was today typical?
Yes, typical?
Poetry: The Sailor
by Liam
Oh! the sea, the sky, the deep blue in me,
The moving waves across the heavens I see.
Let these sails full the strain they take,
The living wind in me now awakes.
Draws me forward through the splash and foam,
A course is drawn on the charts to home.
For it’s here I’ve been with you before,
A place of peace, a space called “more.”
We step outside, my arms are prepped,
The joy of the seagull high, she swept.
The call of the whale from deep, it cried,
It’s a magic life with all alive.
The urchins scrabble to its spiral shell,
The boom of surf on the shore as well,
Reminds again of my chant this night,
The sailor’s life is a blessed rite.
From the golden dawn to its setting fire,
Life on the wing till the funeral pyre.

Overall, the poem delves into the significance of silence, the power of unspoken words, and the transformative nature of observing the world with an open mind. It urges the reader to appreciate the beauty and depth that can be found in the absence of noise and to embrace the selflessness that comes from immersing oneself in quiet contemplation. Liam
Poetry: Quietude
by Liam
Quietude is the silence, my peace.
This eloquence is itself poetry.
Words of pure invisibility increase,
My experience now becomes a mystery.
For as we cease with our words to weave.
The weft and the warp, another beautiful pattern
Becomes visible to read and to receive.
Images, ideas, wishes, dreams illuminated by a lantern.
This is the very antithesis of concentration.
It’s an adventure into the selfless,
Nature of this benign observation.
Creating anew, a realm of speechlessness.
In quiet realms, my essence finds its ethos,
Words fade, mysteries unfold, poetic mythos.

Poetry: When I Wait
by Liam
When I wait
The dawn will turn to day
Suspicion will go away
You, will be here to stay
When I wait
The rose will share it’s sent
The snow will begin to melt
You, will feel what I have felt
When I wait
Your moments they will pass
So too memories of the past
You, will simply loose your mask
When I wait
The sails will fill the sea
All time goes still in me
You, will feel truth and see
When I wait
Your silence will awake
Your soul will in you shake
Your love will in me take
Us to a bright new day.

Poetry: The Flower of Now
by Liam
Beyond the confines of right and wrong,
Lies a green field, where sky, you, and I belong.
Don’t dwell in tomorrow’s haze,
Nor linger in yesterday’s maze.
Join me now, embrace the present moment’s gleam,
Let go of your grey, fly with rainbows, allow your dream.
For in this very moment’s grace,
A flower blossoms for us to embrace,
An eternal bud of love, both yours and mine,
It’s God’s given gift, till the end of time.
