Shangri -La

Embrace that silence.
Let the calm wash over you.
Feel at ease with grace.
Empty all thoughts from your mind.
Let peace completely fill you.

Softly sit in place.
Don’t say a word just listen.
Focus on nothing.
Let all of your burdens go.
Relaxation with purpose…

Placing A Call

Nimble soft fingers 

Press digits on a device

Waiting for a voice

To acknowledge all, across 

a distant wireless expanse.

In the days of old

This call would be placed inside

A compact phone booth

Without video or an

attachment of any kind…

Nostalgia or Change?

Wonder where I’d go

if I had a time machine.

Change some decisions

Formerly made with regrets

Relive pasts that I forget?

Or maybe go back

And meet with my younger self

Giving grave warnings

About desperation’s hell 

To live a life of my dreams.

Rock My Life

I need hard music 

Guitars blaring killer riffs 

Magical bass plays 

Hypnotic chords while the drums 

Beat S.O.S through my heart.

High shrieking vocals

and sweet precise harmonies

Really get me there.

To a place where all my pain 

and past mistakes are erased…

Stream Of Consciousness

Fast, what’s on your mind?

People, places, or events?

Maybe all of them

Endless information floods 

your mind with bright imagery…

Can’t turn it off 

Even if you try real hard

With your vivid mind

Many things to see and feel

You’re not even finished yet…

The Deepest Darkest Infinity And Light 

We are all drifting 

At one hundred thousand miles

An hour in space

Deep dark space with many stars

Far far too many to count.

But trust me they’re there 

A billion pin pricks alight

Warming up the cold 

expanse in all directions

Is there really life out there???

She Knows 

When her legs are wrapped 

All around, show her passion

Do not waste her time

Not suffering any fools

She knows everything she wants.

All her needs expressed

I fulfill all her desires 

Deftly as I can 

Her nails dig into my back 

But I never mind, ever…

Three Things Challenge #M780

Your three words today are:

DIG

UNEARTH

INTER

Uncover, The True You 

Just dig yourself out 

Unearth who you always were

Quite interesting

To stop and think about it 

You will always be just you.

Revert back to you 

That wild creative person 

Let ideas flow 

Your writing will help you heal

Your life’s multitudes of pain…
