NEFERKITTI (For Cat Lovers)
Arrived rear door, sad yowling cat
Forlorn, hungry, on her we took pity
To Vet for spay ‘n buying this ‘n that
She settled in, named her “Neferkitti”
'Twas destined, she become temple cat
Our coal black friend with 4-socks of white
She brought temple offerings of mice ‘n rats
We protested, did scold, “That’s not polite”
She greets guests, sits upon their laps
Her soft purring offers gentle healing
She teaches the value of “Cat naps”
And expressing what you’re feeling
Someday stray kitten may find you
Accept the blessing, let love imbue

Heal Thyself
Allopathic medicine is man made,
Useful for physical trauma and infection,
Mostly Voodoo medicine, inexact and flawed.
Demigod doctors pander chemical pharmaceuticals,
Offering side effects worse than what’s treated.
“Hippocratic Oath”...traded for dollars
Time has arrived for all to know;
All healing is God-Given…
This does not mean we’re powerless,
By directing prana/chi with prayerful/loving intention,
All malady must succumb to God’s-Will,
For our natural state of being is perfect health,
To know this you have but to see a newborn baby
Heal Thyself!

If I Were To Say I Love You
If I were to say “I love you”
How might you respond?
Would you be indifferent or kind?
Tell the truth…I won’t mind
My ears have heard every answer;
See-thru excuses of duck n’ dodge
Such skillful words that sabotage
Come sit with me, let us reason
For every flower has its season
Bravely delve your truest feelings
Remove dusty layers ripe for peeling
I fully trust that we shall find;
How hurt can cleave hearts in two
How jealousy can make us blind
After there’s no negativity to pursue
When everything we’ve felt is said
There shall be a way for love renew

Love
Love may be described as feelings within a willing soul;
Feelings without judgment or expectation
Feelings that require neither gratitude nor reciprocity
Love is a willingness to die rather than accept the pain of separation
Love knows that self-love precludes loneliness,
Because love knows the difference between alone and lonely
Love in and of itself is complete and perfect,
Love embraces every living being and every-thing
Love has no limits or boundaries
Indeed,
Love is what bonds all of Creation together

Shake The Dreams From Your Hair
Awaken!
”Shake the dreams from your hair”
See the surreality you create around you
Do you know the power of your actions?
Do you see the rampant chaos, destruction?
Why do you blame God for your mischief?
Why do you blame others for your misdeeds?
Whilst goaded/aided by Satan posing as God!
Poor choices and judgments belong to man alone;
Take responsibility
Forgive yourself
Forgive others
Atone through service
Redeem through love

I Dreamt Of You Last Night
Beloved! I dreamt of you last night,
Where I saw you frolic in a grassy glen
Alas, all too soon my soul took flight
Now awakened I write with cyber-pen
Are dreams as real as they seem?
Are we but bodiless spirits freed?
Where events can be subtle or extreme?
Questions begging answers I concede!
Today let us make a solemn pact
To meet in dreamland come night
Where reality plays with the abstract
Where Infinity magnifies the finite
Soaring high the Face of God we'll see;
His Hand will surely touch us…Lovingly

My Queen Of The Desert
Sun doth rise and crowns your head
With a brilliant diadem of golden light
The orb sets at your feet, aglow in red
The rising moon greets you come night
Arianna! 'My queen of the desert'
From a land far away, somewhere South
Altho' thoughts of you bring comfort
I long to kiss your crimson mouth
When all our worldly toil be done
Divided souls shall once again unite
When God-Spark within sees activation
Spirits' set free shall then take flight
Rejoice beloved! The day draws near
Nothing need be done save persevere

I Shall Speak Of Light And Love…
I shall speak of Light and Love;
When human consciousness awakens
When man’s inner darkness illumines
When injustices are remedied and forgiven
When truth triumphs over lies
When brother stops killing brother
When Mothers ‘n children no longer feel pangs of hunger
When global elite concede the rights of all human kind
When the last weapon of war is dismantled
When peace everlasting replaces war
When the beauty ‘n bounty of Mother Earth is restored
When God is welcomed once again in houses of worship
When Man finds God within himself…
Then, I shall then speak of Light and Love

Eyes Wide Shut
There are those with open eyes
Whose hearts are closed
What do they see?
A Material world
But someone whose love is aware
Even with eyes that sleep
He or she shall wake up thousands of others
If you are not one of those light-filled lovers
Restrain your body’s intense desires
Limit how much you eat
Sleep not from laziness
If awake in your casket
Sleep long and soundly
Your spirit is out roaming and working
To the highest levels
Your eyes may rest but love needs no rest

Prayer For Awakening
Great Light of Divine Wisdom
Stream forth to my being
Through you let me serve mankind
Through you let me serve Earth Mother
Let me love, from the Heart of God
Let me Radiate from the Christ within
That I may walk the path of truth
Great Source of Creation
Empower;
My being
My Brothers
My Sisters
My Earth
With perfection;
As we collectively awaken as One Soul
Let Wisdom, Love, Power stream forth
To this One Soul that we all share
