Pencil Drawing

quote

Forgiveness is a portal to a different dimension: when you forgive, you change past, present and future.

storytelling

to open a portal
I follow the erased that pulsates
night sky full of stars

I am there
to fathom here

haiku

rain
at the funeral
prayer shawl

storytelling

song of longing
carried by gust of wind
falling leaf

I whirl too
sky my grounding

storytelling

jasmine breeze
I witness
calligraphy of longing

deep breath
to play the soundtrack

Pencil Drawing

haiku

shamanic drum
streaming in human veins
heartbeats of earth

haiku

early morning wind
drops of stars
in late summer hum, sea

haiku

floating lantern
all the shared prayers I summon
to let go

haiku

water garden
higher than the moon
a koi jumps

Storytelling

I am that
glide on open wounds
in this dimension
right palm outside moving car
freedom to seep through
focused consciousness
a fuller dot that masters
the winged universe
inhaling exhaling
joy of inner silence
then music streaming in veins
nothing else

The Key to Different Blooming Surat Al Fatiha

Personal Note

While meditating this past April a download on Surat Al Fatiha caught me by surprise. I finished writing a booklet of 6 pages on this mystic experience. I will print it soon and start to distribute (for free) the copies. One week post distribution I will put on this blog as attachment, a pdf format. Most probably by the end of this month.

poetry

haiku

cellist
from embracing depth
the sound of melancholy

poem

in the secret garden of Delphi
transparent wings holding my breath
carrying it to the four directions
of a new dawn
while I read sunset
among orbs and wind chimes

poem

white feather
on top of cloud
in river of aliveness
all flows
I breathe deep
to the rhythm
heart of flutters
open sky

haiku

ego
on cobblestone road
high heels

haiku

ocean home ~
catching my name
in the billowing curtain

haiku

the brightest light
deep in the cave
closed eyes, monk

haiku

walnut stuffed figs
grandmother's love
in a transparent jar

haiku

full moon
lending its song
to the wind
red poppy

haiku

sweet dreams
the when of all & nothingness
merging in me as me

haiku

co-created dawn
the texture of
almond blossom

poem

blossoming
on her pale skin
his breath of fire

leading her to travel
within, fluttering
from chakra to chakra

floating mid dimensions
fountain of magic bursts from
soul intimacy

fingers interlaced
welcoming her on the other side
with earth mantra, her name in whispers

haiku

connecting the dots
from thought to thought
birdsong

Tonight's affirmation

I redefine home on earth as self celebration within time & space.

haiku

to feel stars whirling
in the softer sound
of cicadas

micropoetry

leaning on light rain
for expression

haiku

transparent geese
migrating to fill
pillow of moonlit hollow

storytelling

earthquake
of the swelling dew
breeze

how
simple and intense
joy is so

universe within universe
the fullest now resides creating
sensitive portal

to breathe in and out
dawn, mantra
interwoven bodies

storytelling

I bloom
zooming into a bumblebee
zooming into a blooming flower
how simple and non linear
the interconnectedness of all life is

haiku

calla lily
engulfed by pure warmth
a rebirth

More of my Watercolor

storytelling

clear sky, mid journey
light beams twinkle on water
cosmic music in reach
salty breeze
how I love you
as if your noticing exudes amber fragrance
I travel bloodstream to bloodstream
expanding contracting at once
you exhale my inhale and I fly
clear sky, mid journey

Through fathoming unity of opposites, embracing expanding contradictions, we touch integration that takes us to transcendence.

Watercolor Drawing: Iris

Lately, I am into drawing. It turned out that I am allergic to oil colors. So I now use watercolors yet not in their diluted usual ways. I am discovering my own style.

in between lines

We are all equal yet with different growth rate of consciousness. When one has a mystical experience, it is fathomed through his/her own growth of consciousness. To attain a maturity of consciousness is a prerequisite to a conducive interpretation of a mystical experience. It is not an issue of validating or invalidating a mystical experience of another (All can have a mystical experience). Rather, validating or invalidating its meaning in relationship to the growth of consciousness of the one who experienced it and/or the one who is interpreting it.

haiku

solitary winter
over sunsetting soup
I sprinkle shared peace

storytelling

the day after
crying in the stillness
from earthquakes
still vibrating within
beauty that peaks
to reach the other side
on a higher spiral
I gasp
not limited by joy nor sadness
I am the expanding paradoxes
conscious of the single point of existence

haiku

wingbeats, how to gather me
in the stillness
of a tingling meadow

haiku

pouring a refuge from gossip
on half moon lemon
the sound of saint pelligrino

haiku

her distant gaze
from dark grey window
the weight of untold story

storytelling

light beam
after midnight
milky way drift

here and there
all inclusive, I am

storytelling

light breeze
coming from or for
the butterfly's wings

in wonder I am
breeze even lighter
