[Marinspin]

in and out of the moment


asparagus

asterisks

rainy nights

words that drip down the pages of memories

roads

paths

picnics in the sand dunes

sea grass

wading pools

fish schools

coral

sharks

ferries

sunshine on tan skin

afternoons spent listening to waves and music

napping on sandy beaches

swimming to elephant mountain

doing yoga in a room built for a maharaja

mangosteens tangerines durians in strange lands

sipping coconut water in the moment

elephant seals

peacocks

hiking mossy fern trails

watching waterfalls fall

bay leaves

fire flies

rice terraces

tirta gangga

lightning

night markets

noodle carts

eating gado gado on the road to kuta

[Marinspin]

Prana in a Pixie Cup

elephants and elegance
dogs on skateboards
gurus smoking clove cigarettes beneath the milky way
chaos confusion
transmissions transitions
rules regulations
ivy growing over the yurt
cast the effort into the sea
no need to grind your teeth
let it all flow again
easily
drink in some gold prana from the overflowing pixie cup
explore the divine door inside your head
fill it up with your favorite color
pour it into every cell
radiance wellness
whatever you desire

[Marinspin]

Cider House Rules

avoidance

escapism

honey tangerines

ink blots

blue corn

bay vistas and fawns that bolt fast with new dots in all the right

spots

a collage of hillside homes

beautiful old leaded glass windows

waves lap

fiesta colored nasturtiums vine wild everywhere

do I dare to open the envelope and deal with a world gone insane

with too many gluttons fighting over other people’s jewels coming

up with their own rules to hoard whatever they can get away with

ripe strawberries

diced mango

sliced kiwi

don’t want to be me dealing with your inner shrew and your early

childhood abandonment issues you have shoved under the carpet

until they explode volcanically like so many molten bits of endless

lava streaming ant farms and bee swarms of your own

inadequacies

self love is not a part of your dialog just endless denial and

dismissal of anything sacred

where is Meher Baba when you need him?

“don’t worry be happy”

what goes around comes around

eventually you will progress

I AND OCEAN
© 1994 Laura C Fox All Rights Reserved

Into the silken wave of universality
and the shining fire of what might be
the rhythm roars the tide’s great pulse
and the seascape endeavors it’s remodeling.

Frothing, foaming, fiery sea the depthless deep,
the crystal sea

the Waking Hour
the sleepless night
pours out like velvet

as dances aren’t forsaken
and light shine makes it’s stand
the night’s foam fringes thoughtfully
the sandy shore’s demand.

Auspice

Of luminous conscience, love and compassion…,
therefore I would want was the world,
splendour and privilege,
interlace of light
and sky low,
near the man who the alive ones


Angels of music

immense Wings…
the scent is expanded in every where
around to me,
of music… the angels.

of much harmonious melody
filled up my small life.

I Fly… I fly with you
in the alternative of the being…
and I dont ask to remain behind.

Inspiration

the inspiration is born from the purity of the heart

the sweetness is born from the brightness of the spirit

the love is born from the sensibility of the world

and all it decides the future of the universe.

Vibration

Of much life

and love

and music

vibrates to sweet
all the beauty of the time.

Deliberated breeze
quiet
in hush of the world.

[massimo]

Martina (my wife)
Love without time
source in the desert
limpid water that refresh
punctual joy, root of my sky.
tenderly I feelthis sweetest feeling
that dance in my small heart.

And alive.

Fear

not to find the light
strayed once againin the continuity
Flattened in normality
dissolved in the powder
of equal seasons

a fear harasses me more than others
too much phrenetic this living
forgetting to love
the same life.


Forgotten children

the images of you
dirty children, starve, suffering to you
scratch me the heart

attack Me the breathlessness
and remain lost in the inability
Hands and prayer, my shelter,
ferries the love that I have for you
in every moment.

[Jerry D. Neal]

HER

I looked and I heard the roar of an earthquake
The crash of thunder
When I saw a face looking in my direction
A face I had never seen
And I heard the voice of angels
The sound of the seraphim
And the song of the cherubim
And the voice of all the heavenly host
Singing with their heavenly voices
A face I had never seen before
The face of a stranger
Looking in my direction
She was more beautiful than anyone I could ever dream of
More beautiful than I could ever imagine
More beautiful than words could describe
And I turned and looked away
I prayed to God to please save me
To Jesus to please deliver me
I wanted to hide
From only a face that lovely
From only that face
That face
Because my tongue could only stammer
And the words would never come
She smiled, and then she noticed me
She reached out and grasped
And then I saw my heart in her hand
Beating against her hand's softness
Like a baby in her palm
She spoke, and she was EVERYTHING.
I looked in her eyes and saw heaven.
And I heard the song of the angels
The song of the seraphim
And the voice of the cherubim
And all the heavenly host in angelic choirs
Singing with their heavenly voices
The most beautiful sounds you could ever hear.
She laughed, and at the music of her voice
I found hope
I wished only
To cross all the continents
Circumnavigate all the seas
Wander forty years in dry desert savannahs
If only just for her
I could make
I could make the heavens rain down mannah
I would not care if I had nothing
If I could join that choir
And see her joyful heart
And know
That I could make her smile just once
Knowing that I could make her sing
Could make her sing and shout
Hosannah

[Brenda Brocal]

I’d rather

Stop

And be sensible

Hurt

And be proud

To not let you know

My wicked yearnings

And let you see

This foolish bravery instead

[Brenda Brocal]

here again,
without alarm
without warning.

pain searing,
apart tearing,
soul breaking.

should i fight?
should i stay?
should i hide?

the sun sets.
the moon peeps.
still, the heart stays.

[Marinspin]

gold light woven by the divine

falling off to sleep wrapped in this metaphysical melted sun

soft blanketed wrapped

healing while listening to waves lap softly

relaxation

peaceful heart bubbles joy

[Linda]

I'm still alive when lightness hides and winter days creep in
I'm shackled by new forms of ice that break upon my skin
Storms rage chaos, I brace myself for darkness of all thought
As I'm left to want some sense of things and deal with the onslaught
I've had as much as I can take, watching as ice shatters
Until I've made my mind up that it no longer matters
And it feels like human nature
An override, the frost subsides, relief is now at hand
The storms don't stand a lick of chance against what I have planned
A ray of sun shoots through the clouds while righting all the wrongs
I suddenly see better days as substance plays the songs
Through broken clouds I sit and watch as storms come to an end
I fix my gaze and shadows fade, my mind is on the mend
And it feels like second nature

[Brenda Brocal]

You’re a puzzle
Something that works my brain
And baffles my heart
An ABC
Yet Xs and Ys me
One day you’re warm and loving
Next day a nothing
There is something I know
Something I feel
You are holding back
That makes me hesitate too
Whether to believe
And to trust
Your smiles
That fleeting gaze
That I happen to
Always catch
You’re a puzzle
A teaser
Maybe not real
Or that’s how far
You can only be
If I could simply
Say
Be weak
Maybe then
Maybe then
I too
Shall cease
Being
Puzzled.
