Poetry
Here are a collection of poems with a general theme of spiritual awakening.
It might sound strange, but it really felt like most of them came to me as messages I needed to hear, rather than from me. I hope they speak to you the way they did to me.
- Dissolve
A poem about the dissolution of all we are not, so we may be what we are. - Seeker’s DilemmaA poem on the nature of spiritual seeking.
- Knee DeepA poem for when you are feeling stuck.
- A Question For Your HeartA poem that poses a question for your heart. When you came hereDid you come to experience the full gamut? The pain and joy…
- A Walk In The WoodsA poem about nature and the beautiful world we live in. It came to be one day after being cooped up and on the computer for way too long.
- Mind Vs HeartA short poem on the mind vs the heart. The mind races, the heart beats. The mind doubts, The heart knows. The mind shouts, the heart sings.
- Cremate your self(not literally) A poem about ego dissolution. The ‘self’ I’m referring to is the ego identity we have formed to play the game of life.
- MoonA poem about the moon. The moon represents the divine feminine. Moon, you are the mother of a night that comes and goes…
- The Unseen HandA poem about an unseen force – life itself. It’s mysterious and all pervading and it’s been called by many names.
- The DreamA poem about the voice in our heads. Awareness is always there regardless of what the voice says and we are that.
- A Poem To PresenceA poem to presence. A conversation between with divine presence. “Every chance I get I’ll sit with you, not to do just to be.”
- Life On TapIt’s a poem about life. A poem that describes an experience of connecting with pure presence through meditation.
- The Journey WithinA poem about the journey within. It’s a journey of paradox. What is unreal needs to be dropped to discover what is real. Identity is the key.
- WokeA poem to the one who thought he might be ‘woke’. In a way, from the perspective of spiritual awakening, being ‘woke’ is a a bit of a joke. Maybe it was slightly harsh but it was what I needed to hear at the time.
- You Are Not The PersonA poem on the personal from a transpersonal perspective. “You are not the person alone but the person is your friend….”
- The Ego GameA poem about the game the ego plays.
