Of Needed Synchronicities

There are always people
People who are open-minded
With curiosity enough to allow the new
And need perspectives, to break through
Albeit, and oft— only after a long struggle

In the red hot heat, of the humid day
There’s loveliness in the woods, but some
Oft are lovely, dark and deep
With the color blue, of cool breeze
Pleasing— to the mountain night

The magnificence of the raw wild
But yet of the wonderful, jungle green
Contrasts with the wretchedness
Of the people who lived in, needing it
Yet, caring not at all— for its welfare

The glories of Nature’s providence
In stark contrast, to the seeming injustices
That God, in wisdom, allowed on this earth
Such discord, as to the tranquility of a pool
At the Court Royale— of the Leper King

Remember This

See also  Varsity’s orientation, ragging in the 70s

This episode we call ‘life’
‘Tis but, a transient phase,
With many twists and turns;
We miss, because we care,
And that’s one truth,
We need to know about.

So remember this, always
And you’ll get along with people,
Just fine;
But not everyone thinks like you,
And knows what you know,
Or believes, what you do.

So don’t let a little dispute,
To injure a great friendship;
Why throw away all those years,
Of friendship, and companionship;
All because of just one quarrel?

If we could conceive, imagine
The whole of humanity,
As not just as one family;
But also as our own self,
Yes, that’s a real, paradigm shift.

A Warming Morn

A Reminder, Room 221

Just a reminder
To keep on moving
And a matter of words
And perspective
That is right and proper

If you have to walk away
Don’t ever look back
For beckoning is the future
Of trepidation somewhat
But, more of hope

For that is
The nature of exploration
If only you’d look back
Since the beginning
Of time

To The Beyond

Oh, just a reminder
To keep on moving
And a matter of words
And perspective
Only right, and proper

So, if you’d have to walk away
Don’t even look back
For the beckoning true
Is the future, yours
Of trepidation granted, some
But it’s more, one of hope

For the makeup, ‘tis that
By nature, strickened
Of exploration, a journey’s beckon
Into the excitement, by the anticipation
Ever since, the dawn, at the beginning of time

Dateline:

The Mental Game

The game that people play
Each and everyone there is, and was
Some will win, the majority will fail
It’s all part of the terrain
In this game of the mind

Of the vanquished and the triumphant
There’s no two ways about it
So take to the challenge
The ability to compartmentalize
Of your past, and your future

And be here, always
Be here — in the present
Performing in the moment
Ever present in The Moment
That which they call The Now!

For it’s in the now that we build
It’s in the now that we love and feel
It’s in the now that we plant
It’s in the now that we believe
All for the future, the everlasting

A Moment of Reflective Gesture in Ur of the Chaldeans, Iraq Circa 2012.
