Poetry: Heal
by Liam
I heal
When I know where to throw, this seed of Love
Truth, here will grow
Pain, no longer know
The reason, source or trial.
Love, in you while with me
Returning what was lost, what is real
Reminding what it is to feel
Alive, awake and true
From that labyrinth of indecision it’s now clear
Like light, lighting the way, lightening the day, Compassions task
This surely will grow,
Strong true and more
The seeds of Love we sow.
Poetry: Bouquet of Love
by Liam
We cherish the perfume of a rose in bloom
Your fragrance too embrace this room
By grace the tincture of yours and mine amalgamate
Let my body yield to this magic of your scent
Create, inspiration
With which we rejoicing souls
See the beauty in what we share
A new vogue
Takes your perfumed gaze
To the heavens calling all
To share this olfactory joy
The Bouquet of love
Brilliant, lifts to God above.
Poetry: Lustfully
by Liam
This laughter, this is joyful, gladness found in your beauty
Your hair flying in curls of golden braid
Distract my contemplation
How easily this persuasion causes me to write, enabling the lines, the letters, the punctuation
Setting free the poetry binding our souls, healing our needs
While alone your glance, caught between yesterday and tomorrow
Has ensnared my life
To live Love lustfully.
Poetry: The Wick
by Liam
Circling the flame
Fascinated by its murderous conflagration.
It’s energy draws me helplessly to you
Hotter deeper closer stronger
We encapsulate the idea of intimacy
Although we are insignificantly erotic, we are magnificently emotional
Still the pull is profound
Heat draws heat
Why do I burn?
Why is the perfume of incense around me?
If it’s love
Do I doubt?
Do I rub the wick?
Snuff the flame,
again!
Poetry: A Walk in the Park
by Liam
Then, when I was no longer searching
My gaze no longer looking to find you
This heart centered energy
Reverberated, opened and flew
To the breeze left by a simple smile
Yours on a bench,
In a park, just before dark
Alone your posture gave me joy, simply leaning on love
The air which separated us quivered
Unexpectedly this embrace,
The universe, stars, space
The setting sun, offered palpitations of color
We consumed and danced away across the night
A beautiful thing two souls in flight, in
Love, take the keys of morning
Let them be lost forever.
Succinct Poetry:
In truth
by Liam
In truth, life and time will never stand still.
It shall pass and a new paradigm now awaits for us to renew what we have known, to what we must now do.

Spiritual poetry: “journey to the center of the soul”
Liam
I too have traveled
True, wide and further
Mountains traversed, oceans crossed and deserts wondered
Only after I
immobilized my body
Literally stopped moving
Did true journey begin
This was truly amazing
Not the movement of a muscle
Nor the twitch of an eyelid
Yet, it was further away than I’d ever ventured before
I decided
To make the journey to the very deepest
The very most hidden core of myself
It was a journey, for it was not made in a day,
Took weeks, took months where I meditated quietly
Each time returning with insights
Firstly
The treasure of my past,
in its detail, in its glory
It’s pain and its healing
Thereafter things became different
I wasn’t going somewhere
I was becoming something
Merging with a field of energetic possibilities
It is a melting
It is a dissolving
It is an absorbing
Funny,
In this, never for a moment
did I lose that.
That which is intrinsically me
That which was, before my birth
That which will remain after leaving this sheath
This was my guide as I vanished
This was my keeper as I merged
This was the center of nothing
This was the core of peace
This is the journey I began
I am and forever will be
traveling.
Nature Poetry: God
God, not only speaks
Through the language of nature
Also, in the words we whisper to ourselves.
God writes
Beautiful wisdom across the tapestry of your heart
These feelings, these impressions wait
Patiently for your stillness
For the quiet moments of inner peace and tranquillity
Sparkling from the reflection of your soul
It’s bird song
It’s the flute
It’s a splashing brook
Which sing God’s song
Listen up, for the mystery of this music
Is written too across your heart
A manuscript of love
A book of joy
A letter of forgiveness
Alone for you to read
Alone for you to discover and share.
Inspirational Poetry: Thank You
by Liam
When last,
was I grateful for this …. gratitude?
Pulling gratitude threadbare across emaciated shoulders
Falling upon boney knees
I’ve shown my thanklessness for to long
Starved this self of love
To long let life flee before me
The ignorance
Of my inner eye
Tears so old, grown cold now cry
Why did arrogant selfish blind my way?
When it’s so simple to say
Thank you, thank you, thank you
Joy is my new nourishment
My gratitude feeds each part of my life
Anew, afresh, awake
Grateful for this life, this new day
Hold it high to the waking say
Carry it deep, in the way I pray.
Poetry: Listen
by Liam
It’s time now to listen up
To the one who made the words
A mighty field of richness
From silence, this now occurs
Listen, the barren stone will crumble
In it’s debris, the flower will grow
Beckoning light with simplicity
From it’s petals words will flow
Listen, as this listener
Now becomes a one of words
To lift the letters from the space
Where silence is but heard
So words they living find us
In thought or image they play
A poetry of pictures found
Listen deep to what they say.
It’s from this place of peace
Inspiration can now play.
