My dear fellow lovers of the written word, the spoken word, the magic of poetry,
I am isolated alone, as so many of you too, with thoughts! These I share with you and you friends, families and communities. Liam
Today 21. April 2020
Our world is not become dystopian, yet still a pivotal and important moment for all societies in this new millennia has happened.
The old paradigm has become dysfunctional, the new paradigm needs our humanity, compassion, love and sympathies to sustain and further contain all the beauty and diversity our planet still has to offer. It’s no longer about what we have or what we own, but who we are in the context of our greater home.
Carrying responsibility for everyone and everything in the microcosm in the Macrocosm of our lives.
It’s time once again for the poets, the bards, the story tellers and musicians to spread the deeper meaning filled truth.
Let’s do this together,
Liam
Nature Poetry: The Rainbow
by Liam
Let me be the sun which dissipates the morning dew
Each droplet dissolving into the universal blue
Building rainbows filled with color bright Together love breaks the light, creating a bridge, a bow
A path of care, grace and inspiration
Which again binds us molecule by molecule
Across each day, into each night
Till again we rise as the morning haze
Dusting dawn from our bleary gaze
The mist, droplet by droplet breathtakingly fine
Refracting wide those rays divine
Allowing in the love, the birds that sing
So we rise again and embrace life
From invisible to magnificent again and again.
Spiritual Poetry: God
It’s not God who looks down upon you
It’s not God that you gaze up to
Hanging limp from that cross
God shines forth from you
Into the eyes of those you behold
Embracing the world with wonder
This is loves thunder
This is the quiet grace
Share this joy
Step into the rich invisibility of your soul
It’s echo is already waiting
Here within
Spiritual Poetry: The Music
by Liam
What!
Can this be true?
You still dance and laugh although
The music is yours alone
Sung in your mind
Ringing joyfully in your ears
We are never ever separated from the Divine
Even pretending ignorance is useless
We dance non the less
We laugh all the more.
Love Poetry: The Wine of Love
by Liam
This wine of love from which we sip
Is to live a timeless memory
For naught else exists other than to discover love
“Nothing is left to do but die,” said I
“Alone knowing my name is life enough”, said love
In speaking with love
It’s life which returns
To the seekers.
In being with love
It’s life which returns
To the the skeptics
“Why bother with time at all?”
“It’s in timelessness we are kissed,
Each with a sip of love,” said I.
Emotional Poetry: Fear
by Liam
This fear
Waiting at the door
Took my breath for a moment
I took it back and more
Spoke to it, then beyond it
Moving forward with resolve
Stepping forward with intent
Fear hidden in the shadows
Around the unconscious corners of my mind
Is a misdemeanor of my own judgement
Eking out its existence in a changed world
Peace is the new paradigm for progress
Happiness the new paradigm for health
Love the new paradigm for social integration
Lifting fear from that pedestal of fame
Placed now beneath the stair
A dusty place where it continues to corrode
Disintegrate under the weight of its own outdated reality
The light, just watch it
For this is the way home.
Spiritual Poetry: Decision
by Liam
These are the days well known to God
Where indecision times turns us
One side to the other
Interrupted, only by moments of reflection
Of awe, that choice carries these two wings
Given by God
When we fly
It’s alone the decision
Then determination, to carry on these wings
To that destination with destiny
We call tomorrow
We name the unknown
Where we create the imagined.
Nature Poetry: Creation
by Liam
We came spinning out of nothingness
Leaving behind a trail
Starlight twinkling in the darkness
Dust and nebula create galaxies
Forming stars and planets
All this
While we dance
Hand in hand
Face to face
Back to light that we came from.
Spiritual Poetry: Silence
by Liam
Silence
is not empty
it’s a universe
Which we can also inhabit
Which is a gateway to understanding
A portal to discover
Those answers
We need to find
Along our own pathway of
Development and growth
Leave the noise
Seek the silence
Find the truth
Understand the meaning
Wake up
Dancing at the spring.
