Soul Vision 

by Liam

When my soul awakes from sleep,

Now new things stur,

sudden wonders arise;

The earth, in all its quiet grace arrayed,

Has long been bright beneath my unseeing eyes.

The meadow’s hush, the river’s silver tongue,

The trembling light on summers leaf.

The robin’s song so tenderly begun,

Were always there, though veiled in my mind’s disbelief.

O sweet, unguarded moment free!

Now I know

That beauty never turned nor fled from me;

’Twas I who walked too blind, too fast, too low,

To understand the world in all its mystery.

Now time moves slow, 

now light and air reveal,

The truth I’d not seen—yet is always, always real.

Poem: You !

by Liam

On that evening, late.

As you walked through into my room.

Fascination grabbed me, your smile too.

A joy rang resonating in the key hole,

Where I lived.

My heart hiding in the cupboard.

A closet reserved for tears,

The draws, filled with crumpled memories.

Musty that place!

Rusty my movements.

It came again 

The vibration, unmistakable & strong….

Boy! 

I breathed deeply.

Glowing your radiation fixed me  to the picture.

The wall swayed with my breathing.

Permeated, I reached out

and grasped your hand.

The movement as you slipped into my arms.

I breathed you in, awash in perfume.

I beat you off with a hammering chest .

I brushed the fluff on your cheek.

I whispered in case,

Reality was but my phantasy.

“Hi”

Drawing back her eyes,

Murky crystals recognized 

My gaze 

A moment which…

Touched the me,

I’d yet grow to become.

“You’re beautiful”

 

She loosened her hand, tugging gently kissed me.

Invisible blood dripped from my love wounded lips.

Dissolving we both left those lovers.

Only a moment, 

In eternity we soared.

Only a second 

In infinity we sighed.

Smiled laughed and died.

Were resurrected to a  new born day.

It’s you, really is you!

A cry was heard, as only souls reuniting sing.

This is my meaning 

This is your feeling

This is why we ring.

Esteem

by Liam 

Esteem, is our quiet flame within,

It’s our souls beacon to the orchard of life

No worldly crown or fleeting prize

Can match this depth where worth resides.

It’s not forged by others’ gaze,

Nor born of fleeting, hollow praise.

But rises steady, soft, and true,

In the quiet work our hearts too do.

So honor true the light you share,

Your worth becomes the flame you bare.

It blunts the edges of your doubt,

Transforms the fear that keeps you out.

Esteem is not a thing you beg or borrow,

Nor the echo of your sorrow,

Take steps to grow, to rise, to fly,

For these dreams, open wide your eyes,

Nurture, care, your gift of worth,

The seed from which you grew at birth.

For only in its sacred fair,

Can your soul unfold and fully dare.

To be aware, to be aware.

Molecularity

by Liam

Peace is an ocean, and conversation its river.

So, when looking for silence,

Leave the splash and bubble of the stream.

Step down to the seashore,

Breathe in…

It’s not the crunch of pebbles, nor the crash of waves;

It’s the molecularity that quietens me,

The salty mist that engulfs my imagination,

The unimaginably small particles of self-awareness

Condensing in my mind.

Creation…

A clear, shining drop awakens,

Clinging precariously to consciousness.

Within it swims the

Ocean we see;

Within it surges the ocean of me.

My Friend called Hope

by Liam

You shine through darkest nights unseen,

In a quiet, steady glow,

The warmth that kindles weary hearts,

And guides through loss and woe.

It’s in those shadows deep and dreary,

When light feels far away,

It’s your whisper soft that dares me on,

To face another day.

Though storms may rage and doubts arise,

Your strength remains so true,

The faithful spark, untouched by fear,

That leads me always through.

I am the flame that won’t go out,

The spark you cannot see,

A gentle, quiet, steadfast friend—

I am hope—and I am free.

Embrace Gratitude 

by Liam

Be grateful for ….

Gratitude rises, gentle as the dawn,

Unlocking life’s fullness, so pure and wide;

What once felt scarce now feels warmly drawn,

A wealth within where little did reside.

Gratitude softens denial, let’s unfold,

And chaos yields to quiet order’s flow;

Confusion clears a steady truth takes hold,

Perceptions weave in peace where tangled thoughts would go.

My humble meal becomes a joyous feast,

Four walls take warmth and turn into a home;

A stranger’s face reveals a friend released,

New light discovered where we thought alone.

With gratitude’s touch, our world finds its grace—

Caress the smallest moment each held in soft embrace.

Awaken to the mystery

by Liam

May you wake each day

To the quiet pulse of wonder,

Feeling the current of new ideas

Which stir beneath your surface,

Like the cosmic river of stars across each night.

Let your thoughts explore, fly,

Through that open doorway into the unknown,

Follow them, step through, heart quickening 

To the thrill of a fresh discovery,

The mystery is as yet untouched, unnamed, untamed.

Be alive to the unexpected,

That quiet astonishment

Hidden in each moment—

The way light bends through leaves,

Or a familiar voice finds a new song singing, 

Savor each drop from this well of wonder,

This feast of beauty and daring,

For once the mind awakens to its depths,

It becomes a lasting passion,

Forever a refuge to your wandering wondering soul.

Breaking Through 

by Liam

Should life break, even crack you,

the soul will whisper —

Saying you are ready to be remade,

To be gathered differently, with tender bands.

Each shattered shard feels,

like a fragment seeking a new place,

finding a new purpose only time can reveal,

a meaning shaped by quiet grace.

Trust your cracks, for there,

the light is absorbed into you—

its gentle beams healing,

illuminating the way to health.

In the brokenness, we meet ourselves again,

and in that meeting, we realize wholeness also happens.

With the courage to rebuild, to reimagine,

to let loves strength take on a new form.

Really we are never broken,

But breaking through—

becoming more than we ever were.

The Sixth Day

by Liam

Creation never stopped on the sixth day—

it moves still, beneath the radiant glow of mornings,

in the dark pull of tides and the leaning of trees toward light.

It breathes through us, between our words or letters,

in the spaces we think are empty,

yet are full with the pulse of the unseen.

We call it love,

though it is older than the name we give it—

a force that knows no stopping,

rising in us like a river breaking its own banks,

flooding us with the ache of becoming.

It walks beside us,

in the ordinary moments we miss—

in the turn of a leaf, the warmth of skin,

the sudden silence when the heart remembers

it has always belonged

to something infinite,

something that has never once paused even, 

After the sixth day.
