North wind with Jack Frost and wayward winds
Santa loading sleigh, but let’s begin
Good little tykes and terrible twos
Awareness sets in, eyes sparkle truth

Not belonging to one
Noon belongs to no one; the shadows don’t wait;
they rush, blend, mingle, finally evanesce.
Noon belongs to no one; no shadows. Brother . . .

Sundays of a Monday man
A Monday man has Sundays behind him too
when he lights a candle; kneels; pray for nothing.
A cat saunters through the time lying down . . .

I have scars you could see
Deep in my heart for you and me
My head would guide you by
My heart could but we could die
Far away you've gone
Here and now my pain flames still burn
Fresh . . .

The penumbra of a Monday
The shadows’ montage on the Monday path;
the shadows of cars, trees, people, rooftops;
everything is on the move; even trees

Staring at the shut window thinking loud
If ever you'd come back to my heart
If ever we were never torn apart
These are the thoughts that burn my heart tonight. . . .

How can you relate To Existence except in And as Consciousness.
What do you know that Does not arise as a State Of your Consciousness.

This is Intended as a place to post your original poem, discuss issues involved in writing poetry and read/comment on poems posted by others. disclaimer: The organizer of this group (jjorge) prefers the title 'aspirant' over 'Poet' . If your ego cannot accept that label, or if gentle criticism and support is insufficiently rigorous for you... .....take two aspirants and call me in the morning. PS something to ponder: the fact that no one understands you doesn't mean you're an artist.
