Now the shades down low
evening in the street
puttin' down the rhythm
toying with the beat
taking my time
writing up the lines
feeling my way
with the old time rhymes
grinding to the flow
work it nice and slow
careful how I'm swimmin'
watch the undertow
riding like the dog
know its understood
haters on the corners
get you if they could
Now the shades down low
evening in the street
putting down the rhythm
toying with the beat

Wood Chopped Water Carried
Robert N. L. Browning

Vital signs fading fast
Desperately hanging on
Slipping away, powerful voice
Let go, release and trust
Free fall infinite space
Brilliant womb of light
Total love and acceptance
All that is, was and will be
Beyond form, no separation
Highest self, one spirit connection
Survived, changed Surgeons life
No complications, cracking jokes
Faith, love, peace and joy grow
Great gift, dying before I die
Awe of life’s magnificence
Beyond ability to express
Grateful Transformation
Lamp lighter and oasis
Path breathlessly looking
Light within, truth revealed.
Before and after Enlightenment
Wood chopped, water carried.

This poem is inspired by a transformative near-death experience.

When we seek for wisdom, we get events and arguments which also comes as a
method of learning and that's where we learn to become better and smarter.
life is short but not too short to become anything we want and everything we can imagine, we transit from certain levels of maturity, we learn from events and arguments.

When we have outlived the fantasies of life, we just live. We may not be among the chosen few, but still here and not there. No longer in the rhythm of a hurried life, but a life that brings forth its own season; memories fade and new adventures emerge; that's when we know we are among the living and not the dead.
Greater is the harvest for its long outcome, life does come to an end but the seeds planted are still reaping the harvest. The absorbent and fertile ground of young minds have substance, beauty, and charm, gently we must keep nurturing so they can grow and go.

Life's transcended past of experiences and acquired wisdom is earned and not taught, curves and bumps sometimes obstruct the view or force us to change our tide wind. We learn to celebrate and dance to its defeats and find the hidden message forbidding further flights.

The many paths walked and the hills climbed never makes us retreat, there are no limits only obstacles and they are few. Dreaming is a way of life but the reality is real and indispensable. Filling the dark spaces with hope, love and the warmth of light makes our light shine with rewarding promise and gratitude.

Not looking to exchange yesterday for today, but to sing new songs from a ranking tongue. Logic is sometimes misunderstood; change can be sluggish in movement, but old habits are hard to break. The streets of knowledge and wisdom are not overcrowded, be ready for its lingering under the blanket of which life falls and to all its dispensaries.

Never hidden in its conclusion; a life well lived always have meaning....................

Pause for a moment to detox; unpack unnecessary stress, toxic relationships, financial burdens, dead-end jobs, outdated wardrobes, and dead weight.

A new you is emerging, looming to go in new directions; exploring options that create choices it's okay to power down too power up, just know the direction you are going and be comfortable with it, perfection is not required, so don't judge yourself so harshly.

Explore the purpose of learning and expand beyond your comfort level without big risks and have fun along the way. Seek the understanding of supportive friends or a partner who can help you unpack the unflattering load and be just as excited about your transformation as you are.

Set no self-imposed rules or limitations unless you intend to follow them, leave the dictators on the sidelines they have their own unsharpened ax to grind. Stay on course, don't let your plans for yourself be hijacked by naysayers; those watching and waiting for failure.

Take an analytical view before you leap, don't let it be a feel-good moment laced with regrets later. Be flexible giving yourself time to reflect back long enough to keep looking ahead; it's okay to pause and refocus but never give up. Be willing to open doors to find your treasure!

Each journey in life started with the first step, trust the process and the progress, claim victory as you make your mark, homework, wisdom and past experiences are important markers. Don't drown in the expectations of others, swim to shore, and find your own landing, factor in the risks. If you cannot absorb the loss don't take the risk.

The road less traveled is not always the safest route, but give it some worthy thought! Don't get lost in the noise of the crowd, speed bumps are there for a reason PAUSE.

To be inspirational
Let it be like celebrational
Cos it is a celebration
This life
Even with its trouble n strife
Married to this game like husband or wife
And why hate?
Well let me tell you why not to hate
For karma you create at any rate
So don't get irate
When you navigate to more stress on your plate
Rather give thanks n appreciate
The time is now so please don't wait
You have the magik
You are a magician
And you alone can create
More joy
More happiness
More of those things which you perceive as bless
Put your focus on grace n giving thanks
Leave those negative vibrations to play in their own ranks
But don't get it twisted
The ego fear and tight fisted
Are all a part of this
Learn to curve n swerve n transform light from darkness

Days seem to alternate, between bright and grey
Gradually increasing, towards spring and summer days
Nature sets the stage, as skies turn lighter blue
Wind becomes a breeze, sending warm day clues

Trees that stood twiggy and bare, ready to wake
As early budding flowers, eager to colour make
Skies explode with light, earlier every breaking day
Welcome approaching summer, as winter fades away

In the northern hemisphere, winter will soon be theirs
Thoughts travel to inside fires, that families will share
Creeping up so quickly, is Christmas a special time
Thoughts will turn to sharing, we wait those familiar signs.....

Standing on the waters edge, thoughts jumbled mind
Seek answers to questions, in the jumble try to find
Do you need too, or is the reason so obviously clear
Maybe you can't accept, from those you hold dear

Red flags, we all sense them but try to ignore
Until the dawning moment, we can do no more
To bury and consider, a reason that is safe
Instead of acting quickly, close an open gate

Did you wait for peace of mind, to overcome
When a relationship is toxic, commonsense wrong
Still hope burns strong, yet doubts take control
Time to accept, bring peace to your inner soul

Fill
Full
My
Every
Cell
With
Your
Love
Amen

All have a story to share, but time
outcome can change, leaving signs
Of path taken, the ups and downs
causing smiles, sometimes frowns

Marking time, no decisions made
some people important, others fade
Yet every step, choices lead a way
to goals and outcomes, every day

It's so important, to ourselves be true
without hurting other, gives us clues
Of right and wrong, and what to do
Treat others, as they should do to you

Sadly some people, don't really care
Make your decisions, with whom to share
Good and bad, the world has a mix
Sadly one person, alone can't fix

Yet every time, you do what's right
Quietly, without the need to fight
You'll feel better, and so you hope
Good overcomes, the majority of folk....
