Ode to Sleep

by Liam

As this fair day doth softly fade to night,

The sun’s warm beams now gently cease to light.

It’s twilight hues across heavens’ canvas spread,

With azure melting softly into rosy red.

The golden luster wanes, yet still it stays,

A reminding tender echo of the sunlit days.

This fleeting bliss, across my momentary grace,

In love’s embrace, I find thy star filled gorgeous face.

Thou art an angel, dancing high and free,

Thy form, a vision in the twilight sea.

Amongst the clouds, thou flittest ‘cross mine eye,

Thy visage graces all the boundless sky.

Thy horizon, with me now, doth proclaim,

And stars, like jewels, adorn the night on high.

With sparks and dreams, with glimmers bright and clear,

Our souls entwine, in this one rapture’s sphere.

As I now close mine eyes to slumber deep,

The wonder of this night in heart I’ll keep.

Till dawn’s first light doth chase the dark away,

And with thee, love, I’ll greet our new-born day.

Together then, the morning song we’ll raise,

In harmony, through all our waking days.

Poem: Blaze through Life

by Liam

I would rather be ashes than dust,

A spark that burns out in a brilliant blaze,

Than stifled by dry-rot, left to rust,

Or the meteorite in a magnificent haze.

Every atom in me will glorious glow,

Above a somnambulant planet, cold and slow.

The function of man is to live, not to exist,

Not to waste these days in a futile twist.

I use my time well, not prolong it in vain,

For life in the world also means embracing pain.

Yet beyond this point, we need create,

A world of our own, to meet with fate.

Life always gives us the chance to a new,

To start fresh, blaze a trail of truth.

It’s never too late to start again,

To explore, to learn, and transform the pain.

Life is so short, our time so brief,

To explore, to learn, and reconnect to belief.

So burn bright, ablaze with meteors high,

Leaving trails of light as we move on by.

Be inspiration for those who follow this flight,

A testament to life’s struggle, then lived right.

Let’s make the most of our raging time,

Blaze brilliantly, on into our living prime.

Flying By

by Liam

I commence my meditation, swiftly borne,

By inner power, my mind’s own subtle force,

Which grants awareness in its quiet form,

Thus my mindfulness bestows a gentle course.

I am not this mind,

Nor body’s my fragile shell,

Nor merely I,

A child of Nature’s grand, celestial spell,

Yet a person touched by light from yonder sky,

A being with perspectives broad and high.

To nurture good, to grasp the essence true,

To journey forth beyond the self’s confines,

And reach the boundless space where one is free—

This is no deity, no distant shrine,

But humankind’s own noble destiny.

As freedom I embrace,

And you shall see,

In this shared grace,

We shall be free.

Rediscovered

Poem: Rediscovered

by Liam

Hidden by the shadow of my disregard ,

Gratitude, became a threadbare cloak.

Draped across weary shoulders, I spoke.

Collapse I to my knees,

burdened, self marred.

Too long now, have I starved my soul,

Letting love wither, life denied.

Blinded within, ignorance my guide,

Tears once warm, now cold control.

Why let I selfish arrogance lead me astray?

When simplicity beckons, pray, “Thank you!“

Oh Joy! Be now my newfound feast,

Gratitude’s embrace, revitalizing every facet of today.

A renewal, a rebirth, a heartbeat free,

Thankful, for each dawn, each breath, each stride.

I hold aloft a prayer, cast a aside my pride.

Deep within, in a silent hymn, I finds me.

What you are looking for is also searching for you.True!

Then at a distance, you see my spark, Come closer, now!Recognizing that I am, what you are too.

This is an eloquence found in silence.

Cosmic Life

Poetry: Cosmic Life

by Liam

In the cosmic play, we each share the heart,

Of this universe’s grand design,

Humanity, we’re not separate, but an intricate part,

Fulfilling itself day by day, line by line.

Our ethereal body, is but a vessel divine,

Thoughts flow freely, in a cosmic stream,

Connect us to the oceanic vine,

A dance of essence, is more than what it may seem.

The universe shares, its cosmic thought,

A gift of wisdom, in a timeless art,

Into my etheric body, it imparts,

How we receive this soulful spark.

We’re not here for ourselves alone,

We’re here to perceive the universe create.

It’s within this vast cosmos, we’ve grown,

Now a part of what we call home.

Poetry: You and I

Poetry: You and I

by Liam

This moment of bliss,

you and I,

seated on the veranda,

seemingly two,

yet united in soul,

you and I.

We sense life’s flowing water here,

you and I,

amidst the garden’s splendor

and the melody of birds.

The stars shall witness our union,

and we shall illustrate to them,

You and I,

the essence of a slender crescent moon.

You and I,

Independent yet intertwined,

unperturbed by idle chatter,

you and I.

The celestial parrots shall indulge in sweets

as we share laughter,

you and I.

In one guise upon this earth,

and in another guise in an eternal, sweet realm.

Wake Up

Poem: Wake Up

By Liam

My power to forgive

Tore down those fortresses, your castles of protection.

This epiphany of ultimate strength

Is my liberation from self-destruction.

For I’ve become accustomed to being alone.

Truly, unexpectedly, the immature shattered,

The me that mattered emerged,

Perhaps a little shaky,

Perhaps a tad unsure.

I recognized the moment was mine, not yours.

“You, you,” you said,

“I’d die!”

God!!! Thanks be, for true I did.

Not what you imagined—though! No.

I discovered behind the insecurity of immaturity,

A beautiful new stranger,

Who but me!

Naked, filled with identity, truth, light & love.

In death,

Transmutation turns to transcendence.

This is beyond the insignificance of your little egotistical theater.

Grow up, brother!

Grow up, sister!

For your time of insignificance is also over.

Wake up.

Wake up.

Wake the heck up!

Seeking Silence

Poetry: Seeking Silence

by Liam

For it’s in the stillness, a symphony does reside,

A tapestry of insights, where answers do confide.

Yes, stop your weaving, yet embrace the tranquil air,

And witness now, how silence refines your every affair.

In the cadence of existence, it’s not mere words or verse,

The blink of an angel’s eyelash , a rhythm is immersed.

Within the pause of punctuation, your realization unfurls,

Melody and meaning, through the empty space, it swirls.

We discover deep within us, born in this tranquil place .

That which underlies our understandings grace,

A quietude of magnificence how peace thus found is heard.

Fly swift white dove to find us all, who seek their own true words.

Finding Freedom

Poetry: Finding Freedom

by Liam

Go, find freedom, unfold your myth,

Discover yourself, create this bliss.

For it’s in lost moments of despair,

A secret path emerges where.

We walk the talk of our own spoken word.

The wisdom, to change myself and be heard.

With this desire, all others diminish,

Only love’s language is never quite finished.

Not to mold the world, but recreate anew,

By dissolving the ego, we find God anew.
