Haunting Glory (experimental no edit)

Betrayed
When fear nurtures scorn, evasion belies
the truth of the muse’s heartfelt cries
erecting fragile walls in turn
what sweet bridges were now slowly burn.
In sluggish form my steps retreat
shame hangs the head and drags the feet
silence devours, feeds the soul’s endless screams
demons torment the sacred place of rest and dreams.
A chord of pain escapes and drifts through the night
a desperate prayer uttered with no strength left to fight
seeds planted with no warmth to grow
dies in the ground with no life to show.
Behold the garden of weeds and lies
no more see the blooms reach for blue skies
Twas here we made our promise and spoke our vows of love
our orchard now neglected, echoes cries of mournful doves.
The heavens turn gray and she opens up wide
forlorn, I stood there in the rain and cried
prayed in vain for the water to wash away
the painful scourge of love betrayed.

The lesson of the pebble (reblog)
A sweet, endearing song that enchants the ears of the listener. A few months ago, I wrote this poem as I was listening to this song. Hope you enjoy.
At dawn she rises, a day like any other
and tries her best to force a smile
again she’ll have to reach down deep
to keep her holding on for a while.
For so long she’s had to battle
this war between her heart and mind
she had not expected in all her life
to find these walls she’d built to hide behind.
Now her sorrow had outrun her
her burden too painful to hold
the joyful song her heart had once sung
was silent and dormant in the cold.
Happiness and peace once the pillars of her soul
in all things she’d found the beauty of a rose
but her world had turned to shades of gray
this is not the life she ever would have chose.
In the still and quiet of the morning
she walked alongside a stream
and wondered why her plans had failed
and deserted her soul in a broken dream.
Beneath the water something caught her eye
a pebble the color of the bluest sky
in the midst of all the others it’s color truly showed
the beauty in it’s solitude made her want to cry.
It was a rock like all the others
it’s journey too was much the same
but in it own uniqueness it proudly laid
alone, yet it didn’t complain nor think of another to blame.
She reached down through the water
and picked up the pebble with care
she would keep it in her pocket
to remind her of her time there.
For nature had spoken and she listened with her heart
and received a lesson that day
that no matter how lonely and forgotten we feel
his love remains near to show us a way.

) and am totally swept away. An absolute stunning, soulful, powerful piece with impassioned lyrics sung by the voice of an earthly angel. I am wowed. You have to listen to know and appreciate fully. I feel this song was plucked straight out of my soul. Prepare to be transported to celestial realms. Turn it up, enjoy, and feel free to leave your thoughts. Happy Thursday!

Good Morning with a song, poem and a smile… :)
Hope you enjoy this amazingly beautiful piece that lifts the spirit and refreshes the soul, and a poem I wrote inspired by it’s melody. Have a splendid day!
A soft, gentle breeze reminding me,
how everything is meant to be…
A heart of flesh that beats in time
that hears the song of joy divine…
A word that grounds the truth so strong
that sweetly whispers that I belong…
A hand that leads to every light
a love so pure it fills my sight…
A broken soul that long did roam
has finally found it’s way back home.

From me, for my friends…….
Hello, friends! I have missed everyone, missed the connection and words from your brilliant hearts and minds. All is well here, just have needed a break, a breather from my rigorous routine. I have still been writing some on the side, of course, but as you know have been absent from WordPress. My soul has been pretty quiet as far as things I feel I need to say or display publicly, though I have missed it.
Most of you know, I love a good emotional symphony. Though these are from the HP movie, the composer is gifted and in tune with the rhythmic notes of the ether, and I had to share these two fantastic pieces that I adore with you. Just stumbled across them yesterday….. I am always searching for something new that invokes the senses, emotions and creativity.
I do hope everyone is well and enjoying your creative projects. Best wishes and warm goodwill for every single, amazing artist here in the blogesphere. It is a privilege to know you and have your friendship and support. I will slowly pick up the pace from here. For if there is one thing I love, it is writing. One thing I cannot do, is forsake it’s healing elements and the soul of my inner poet. Much love to all……

Arisen
As some of you know, I have a soft place for a wonderfully composed epic symphony, the strength of it’s life and beauty mesmerizing me and pulling at the strings of my heart. I am always searching for something new, and came across this one not long ago. It is a little shorter than I would like, but still packs a punch, the impact well worth two minutes of ear ecstasy! Below is a prose piece that came to me while listening to this invigorating composition.
Turn it up, enjoy, and have an amazing day!
Drawing ever near your infinite cosmic pulse
Ardent and majestic is your soul of fiery passion
Affected by your celestial touch
I’m left yearning in breathless reverie
My feeble heart rests, wrapped in your spirited splendor
Whisked away in your brilliant light
Cascading into your resplendent glory
Your strong hands lift me up as a breath
And I bask in the might of your possession
The tenacious ache of your beauty dark
So sweet and wrapped in velvet night
A silken kiss from your timeless essence
Angelic lips of illuminate fire
Their sparks of life buried deep inside me
Sown within and birthed new life
I, your lady immortal.

If I die young
One of my favorite songs, every time I hear it, I am moved to tears….it rings truth through my soul and urgency through my veins…and it is close to my heart from my own personal trials and painful losses….the song carries an innocence and powerful conviction for the gift of life and the frailty of our mortality….I have written out the beautiful lyrics for you and I know you will be blessed as you give a few moments to hear the message….bless each one of you as you reflect on the value and preciousness of your life and as you carry on throughout your day….Namaste….( LOVE YOU MAMMA, R.I.P)
If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
Lord make me a rainbow, I’ll shine down on my mother
She’ll know I’m safe with you when she stands under my colors, oh and
Life ain’t always what you think it ought to be, no
ain’t even grey, but she buries her baby
The sharp knife of a short life, well
I’ve had just enough time
If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
The sharp knife of a short life, well
I’ve had just enough time
And I’ll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom
I’m as green as the ring on my little cold finger
I’ve never known the lovin’ of a man
But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand
There’s a boy here in town says he’ll love me forever
Who would have thought forever could be severed by
The sharp knife of a short life, well
I’ve had just enough time
So put on your best boys and I’ll wear my pearls
What I never did is done
A penny for my thoughts, oh no I’ll sell them for a dollar
They’re worth so much more after I’m a goner
And maybe then you’ll hear the words I been singin’
Funny when you’re dead how people start listenin’
If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
The ballad of a dove
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears, keep ‘em in your pocket
Save them for a time when your really gonna need ‘em oh
The sharp knife of a short life, well
I’ve had just enough time
So put on your best boys and I’ll wear my pearls
To end all wars ( Uriel and Lilith)
Feeling a sadness today, a sadness preparing me for the tone about to beset my story that I am writing….I stumbled across this this morning looking for a melodic tone to reflect my mood. As soon as I heard this song, it reminded me of Uriel and Lilith, the love deepening between them and the journey they are about to embark upon, the beginning of the sorrows, joys, hardships and triumphs they will ultimately share. Yes, I am very much treating my story as a real live event that I am an active participant in. How else can one write a story such as this and bring about the realness of emotion and heart wrenching dilemma? That and a lack of sleep, lol. But I am having fun and enjoying this little adventure I have only glimpsed of in a dream in times past. I hope you continue to enjoy the story as it unfolds, and enjoy this brief but emotionally beautiful piece of music.
Also, could everyone please let me know if my post notifications are reaching your emails? There seems to be a problem going on that I need to see to if indeed this is the case. Thank you!
Green Man + Haiku
An awesome song, from one of my favorite bands. The lyrics are hauntingly beautiful, and I have added them below the video. I know this band may not be everyone’s cup of tea, indeed it is a minority….but I find they suit a secret part of me well, and their music is unique, speaking to me on an honest and human level. Actually, I have written a handful of poems while playing them in the background, if you can believe that. If it’s not to your liking, cool. If it is, very good. But I think we all agree, the lyrical verse is quite stunning.
I also wrote a haiku, which was inspired by this song. Enjoy.
Haiku:
Standing at the precipice my eyes behold
sky shedding the cloak of twilight
as dawn’s first rays touch the horizon.
Spring won’t come, the need of strife
To struggle to be freed from hard ground
The evening mists that creep and crawl
Will drench in the dew and so drown
I’m the green man
The green man
Sol in prime sweet summertime
Cast shadows of doubt on my face
A midday sun, its caustic hues
Refracting within the still lake
Cast shadows of doubt on my face
A midday sun, its caustic hues
Refracting within the still lake
Autumn in her flaming dress
Of orange, brown, gold fallen leaves
My mistress of the frigid night
I worship pray to on my knees
Winter’s breath of filthy snow
Befrosted paths to the unknown
Have my lips turned true purple
Life is coming to an end
So says me, me wiccan friend
Nature coming full circle
I’m the green man
Winter’s breath of filthy snow
Befrosted paths to the unknown
Have my lips turned true purple
Life is coming to an end
So says me, me wiccan friend
Nature coming full circle
I’m the green man
The green man
Befrosted paths to the unknown
Have my lips turned true purple
Life is coming to an end
So says me, me wiccan friend
Nature coming full circle
I’m the green man
The green man
GORGEOUS!
