Night
NightCame silently into my house
Illuminating dark spaces
The hidden, the forgotten, the not-known
Night
Put the mind to rest
And bedded the heart
In the still-point of rapture
Night
Kisses my face
Until I am no more
Than it

Visitor
Past midnight
The moon crept in
Announcing Your arrival
Grumbling
Accompanied my hasty departure
On the bare roof
Sheer
Night-sky majesty
Flooding me
With gratitude
Poetry Expressing the Heart & Soul

Love Feast
darkness beyond night
emergence
a precipitated full nothingness
a pregnant pearly point
a love feast
I offer
my precious tender parts
you make of them a satisfying meal
in the world of lies
a river of love wine
empties itself
onto a kaleidoscopic palate
here
heart’s depth
reveals endless fathomless
true nature
Always

Twilight
There is wonder, there is beauty, there is Majesty, but it is all mystery upon mystery. The peace is stupendous, the certainty is absolute and the beauty is dazzling. – A.H. Almaas
Twilight
the edge of two worlds
the dark flame burns bright
a well of longing fills the soul
deep water
still water
an immensity — moves
exquisite caress
the Beloved’s breath
silky luminosity
beauty’s grace
a kiss on the heart
beckoning brilliant void
a teeming
pure crystalline delight
I am
Twilight
