Rebirthing

Beings of energy,
caught in a material construct ~
held captive by a mind
our own device.

The gentle: strong
hold the Light,
open the gates to the path.
Tender to the invitation,
sensitive to a moments creation,
prayers become answers,
feathers on the wings of angels.

We create this world.
Invest ourselves in arguments:
the rightness or wrongness.
Lay down these hands
trying to work with what
isn’t  working.

Begin anew in the language of love.
What would be
the consciousness, newly created,
blessed and born
in the kingdom of heaven
living within us?

    this is beautiful and definitely

    exudes a very spiritual quality... it's very gently worded and has a very delicate flow...

    very calming effect you've created here... you seem at peace...

      truthfully, written after a Quaker silent meeting worship. I needed to write it all down, the vision I had while sitting in worship. I imagine that is where the peace came from. We, poets reflect our souls in time give intimate view of our spirit without ever using words. Love, Tom B.

    My Dear Friend,

    There are times in life when all is necessary as well as none. I know that in the season that is right for a thing, that thing must be. I do not believe in coiencidences...all happens as it is destined. Your poem is filled with wisdom and insight and as always leaves me with much food for thought. An excellent presentation for the spirit, mind, and soul. Thank YOU for this poetry! It is forever my pleasure to read your works.


    Much LOVE ♥

    Renee

      Thanks for being so generous with your praise. I have learned we create a great deal of what we have in this universe. Perhaps we need to look at where we create from more than argue with what we have created. Love, Tom B.

    Great question,

    to know where to begin

    faith and hope are good things to build on to make something not working work.

    Profound words of wisdom. You should be a professional counselor.

      We create the universe. We create meaning, build value.

      I once was a counselor. Now I design kitchens.

      Peace & Love, Tom B.

      You touch my heart. If any set of words I write can help in any way, then take all the help you need. If anything I can do will help you breathe more at peace, then ask me please. Love, Tom B.

    Sounds like you are rethinking the bad ending of a first relationship to the good things of the new one where we open ourselves up to what was right and invest them into the future of a love that is working, faith goes hand in hand with hope, working at it together makes it worthwhile. Love, C

      i have a theroy. It doesn't matter what we say yes or no to a much what coin we deal in. It isn't about saying yes or no to love it is looking at how I am in a relationship. It isn't about having a right to be angry, it is looking at why I would choose anger at all. I think you see what I mean. We create our universe and our relationship with it. I have learned be in the now that we have to be present and look at what we are willing to create. Love, Tom B.

    This poem just gave me an insight into some of my larger problems. I don't know what it means to you, but it helped me in a way I may never be able to explain. Thank you for sharing!

    Always,
    Summer

      When our spirit is touched in a way that shows the Light we go where we are shown. Thanks for letting yourself be touched. Love,Tom B.
