Supreme Guardian..

The night has passed
but stars remain
and only an ether voice prays
the rays of luck,of love and Fate
are asked and forced to go astray..
My life has enter the final circle
as orbits bells carry the fatal
and a Guardian voice sings of outer Space
my soul's luminate embrace..
I have to leave whatever i loved
i ever dreamed or ever hold
I have to wave my mindless crimes
my ever lunatic endless desires
i have to bow down my being, my ever existence to the Supreme...

The Search

It's logical to believe that we not alone in the Universe,
Wow, how did we get here?
Some would say a divine force (God) created us,
Philosophies emerged,
The ancient Greeks believed in polytheism,
And also a form of reincarnation,
As did the Hindus,
The Vikings had a warrior culture with Thor and Odin,
Judaism had the one God concept,
As did its spin off Christianity,
And of course Islam has the one God concept too.
The Incas had their Sun God.
The concept of a creative force makes sense,
Each culture developed its own philosophy of existence.
They developed a set of moral rules,
Necessary for peaceful coexistence,
All very commendable.
They based it on the known world of their time.
It gave people hope from the disease,
The hardship,
And their transient life.
The world moved on,
We saw the stars and the infinity out there,
We figured out some laws of physics,
But it always stopped at that big question,
Yes but why?
What came before the Big Bang?
What is the purpose of these forces of physics?
And why are we such little, frail creatures,
So curious?
Perhaps the answer is so simple,
We are part of this amazing process,
We have evolved enquiring minds,
As part of our survival.
We want answers,
Some use logic,
Some simple mystical belief,
I’m sure in the end we’ll get there,
But only if we let reason,
And our unique enquiring minds,
Let the universal laws,
Give up their answers.

About this poem:
I don't come on here very often now but I noticed that one of your poets..."looking2share" put up a controversial poem about the nature religion and God. It received many comments...most unfavourable. He stirred up a hornet's nest because he dared question what for some people is the answer to their lives. When you question established religious belief...it's a brave call. I know that most of us cannot accept a nothingness concept of death. We're more important than that. Anyway I just put down my thoughts. I do believe that we are part of a bigger picture but still think we are in the process of finding out what that is. I would hope this poem will generate some "positive" thoughts and discussion.

GOD IS NOT DEAD

God is not sleeping…. And I’m not DEAD

Thank You LORD for another day. I was consumed by my losses; I didn't notice the gentleness of your spirit as I pressed through the hardness of life as I saw it. But it is life, I have learned to live it and embrace it as you have granted it. The hurt, the embarrassment was so intense; I couldn’t see the grace, the love the tolerance you provided as you guided me through the valleys and shadows of self-fulfilling prophecies of self defeat.
Thank you LORD, I know you are not sleeping; you were always there as you are now in the mist, supporting and guiding me through the dark places to bring me up on the other side of the mountain. I was too steeped in self pity to see your grace; I concentrated on the problems instead of relying on you to see me through.
LORD thank you for not sleeping

My Soul Destination

(a day in heaven)

My head on heavenly gossamer pillows to lay
such exquisite rest so blissful, so deep
as my mind reflects back on events of the day~

On a Cosmogyral journey escorted
by the lightest of Aeolian wings

passing through shimmerous
Nacreous rainbows to hear,
so delicately played it's Psithurism-like sounds.

Transported through unimaginable beauty,
the likes of which nature's majesties
not ever seen nor found.

And now as I'm falling nigh unto sleep
off to another destination,
that of dream state.

Perhaps to this sleep a Reminiscence will enter
and while sleeping
will bring yet another...

Reminiscence of a much different kind
when upon awaking I shall find-

My Creator smiling,
there gracing my countenance shall be-
all the way through into my heart and my soul...
welling up Reverent feelings,
Ataraxia untold.......

Sanctification

Allegedly born from the dust of this earth...
We are...
Assembled from the dust of the stars...
So far...
Cursed ever since the day of our birth...
Means nothing...
For I have been pierced by the venomous stars that came into existence by an everlasting entity...
That refuses to negotiate...

It is the liquid fire inside your eyes that melt the stars of sanctity...
As I witness your true suffering...
It means something...
And it is through this process of sanctification...
That I find solace in this solemn state of sorrow....

say a prayer

moments are like pieces
of jigsaws in our lives
putting them together
aint that easy

we can only do our best
and then we leave the rest
sometimes there are limits
on each of us

some jigsaws are completed
feat is celebrated
spare a thought for those
whose still lie there undone

best of all we can
if we do believe
add a hidden jigsaw piece
that often is not seen

say a little prayer
and let heaven know
all the things that touch
each of us below
and then you may see
also you will find
you are not alone
in the jigsaw
of your mind.

withdrawn from the night!..

Is it time to withdraw from the night, withdraw from the dark, retreat to the light, the deceit of the dark, no more shall I fear for I have come here, its the sight of the light, no more shall I fight with the memories of the dark, living in torment without the spark, no more are the demons coming out from behind trees, no more shall I seek a retreat from the night for I have finally won the fight...I have seen the light!..

Glory

I know of a land
So fair and bright
As yet unexplored by any man
Where the Ruler is the Light
A place of gold, sapphires and pearls
The lion and the lamb walk side by side
There milk and honey doth flows
Where lives Christ the crucified
A day will come,
A trump shall sound
And all righteous shall be found
In the grave and in the sea
To live with Him for eternity

I am awake and alive !

Come and listen those who will,

The time is ripe to have your fill,

Let fear, anger, sorrow and bitterness flee,

And be filled with love and joy and ease,

And laugh and watch in wonderment the moon and the stars in the filament,

For all to soon our life is quenched,

With regrets that cannot be undone,

So come alive as I have, and open up our hearts as one,

And cherish every second we have on Earth, for we do not know the time of our rebirth,

And remember what we "know" inside is to live and laugh and love as one,

To be at peace, to teach each other and be willing to learn and sacrifice the need to scorn,

To smile with my heart and love with my soul, is my intention , from this moment on.

shadow light

The sun is shining down on me
casting a shadow walking with me.
This shadow side of me I cannot hide.
Shadow energy that rob me from my
Free will and all that I desire
shivers my soul and
fuel my heart with chaos and confusion

And when the sun don't shine
this shadow side consumes all
Of darkness
