Simple Kiss

One more time I have gone to and returned from la belle France.  One more time I have enacted many of the routines I've enacted for thirty years past.  But this time was unique .. this time included an epiphany of major consequence to my psyche .. to my spiritual self .. to my core life process.  This time, the question to ponder shone through the haze of uncertainty with forcefulness I could not, and cannot, ignore.  As always, the simplicity of higher thinking leaves me smiling, shaking my head in wonder, and questioning why I didn't grasp and understand the concept sooner.  Such is higher learning .. growth spurts come suddenly, with clarity which begs  the question "Why in the world didn't I previously understand?".  There is no room nor time for regretting my past lack of knowledge, so I sit here smiling .. enjoying the gift at this very moment .. in the present .. not concerned with what has passed or what the future holds.  I trust today's actions will be directly reflected in tomorrow's reality.  Therefore, I live today in happiness and positivity, with firm belief my future will be forged by the affirmative base of "now" living.

​I have "known" the message conveyed above for many years .. the epiphany, the gift I was just blessed with in Paris is knowledge of how to be in the moment.  How to not let past negativity deform or influence present happiness.  How to trust present action will lay a positive foundation for future happiness.      

​This bit of knowledge could have come at any time in any place, but for me it came while I was in my most cherished of all places .. Paris.  Not Paris of the Eiffel Tower, nor Paris of the Seine, nor sidewalk cafe's, nor any other cliché's .. but the Paris which has forever swirled through my being via sounds and aromas and ethereal history like no other space I've ever experienced.


​Dear Readers .. I wish you happiness now .. ​I wish you love and passion and wonder as we gently traverse this incredible experience we share ... this Life
​
Beautiful City
​you've kissed me
awakened my passion for life

No other can be you
cradled within my heart
protected by my overwhelming desire

I have loved you forever
since the first stone
​ of your first structure

Today my undying love
was rewarded
by your simple kiss

As long as my heart beats
we shall be connected
no matter where my body resides ...

Then the Tears Came

​My mirror spoke clearly
as eyes locked on eyes ..
Stark truth exploded
facts not disguised.

​Finally that moment
​self realized ..
​Jolted - Awakened 
by deep primal cries.

​Questions of destiny
​answered at last ..
No more surmising
future or past.

Path defined
awaiting my feet
Exercise courage
​mistakes don't repeat.

Angst for life wasted
  weakened the flame ..
then the tears came
​then the tears came

   The following thoughts are written for you .. in fervent hope you might experience the energy, gratification, depth of emotion, and exhilaration I feel while writing from my room in the south of Paris this morning.      

     This month of May marks my thirtieth year of  travel to la belle France.  The wonder of this place resides comfortably within my consciousness .. permeating my existence on a daily basis.  No matter where I may be or what the circumstances of my  life are at that moment,  France is part of me .. a very real and necessary portion of my humanity.

​I write for you, ​a giving message from this place which captivates, nurtures, and stimulates my higher self. 

I write for you, ​ in hope you might find your Paris .. that place which resides within .. that ancient "Keeper" of your divine gifts .. of your core essence. 

​I write for you, confident you ​also have a unique connection to your particular place, which enriches and facilitates your creative nature. 

​I write for you, because I want to look into your eyes one day and share tears of joy, common to kindred spirits who realize, accept, and live the passion instilled within.

​I write for you, hoping your path may have a particular place which acts as your muse, your stimulator, your facilitator of wondrous ancient memories.
​
Your unique gift is within.

Your gift is accessible from anyplace.

​However ..

​I write for
you .. hopeful your "anyplace" is enhanced by a "special place"..
​a place where
you too will enjoy this feeling I enjoy while writing for you ..

​that place where
our spirits become Incredible Wild Flowers ..

The Winner

The battle rages ..
word arrows flung ..
violence in the streets.

Humanity ages ..
​now covered in dung ..
​as pride and greed repeats.

Enhanced technology ..
​entranced videology ..
​mesmerized fools we are.

Insert nose in ass 
of the one in front ..
​as they guide us from afar.

​One would think we learn ..
from history discern ..
power is nasty delusion.

​The winner is clear ..
neither there nor here ..
​but within .. transcending confusion.
