Upon awakening I sought Her
My mind raced back along the paths that She walks in me
She comes to me from the place of dreams and we walked together there
She teaches me, though I am most foolish and slow to understand
When I am unfaithful she cruelly chastises, for the love of me
I am so easily distracted and forgetful and quickly lose my way but
“I came to this earth so that I could find my way back to my Beloved.”
She is patient and She is kind and She is long-suffering , for the love of me
Foolish man, remember your purpose, let go of all that is Not and make room for Her
She is all that you seek and you will never rest until you find your rest in Her
All the wonders that you seek lay waiting for you, there inside Her castle
As I read this to myself I was struck that it is a poetic version of something I wrote a bit ago. If you have any interest in a more detailed and prose version see The Princess and the Dragonfly. The audio is coming when I finally get back home.
My friend Next Step to Nirvana has allowed me to play. She has written If Only You hadn’t Departed and asked me to write along following these rules. Go visit her. She has written some excellent poetry of late and has been kind to me. I am going to ask my Dragonfly buddy to play. The Lady Calen at Impromptu Promptings is someone you should endeavor to know. Your life will be enriched.
You only have to link back to my blog and add your poem on your blog, making sure to include:
~The word “Love”, at least once.
~At least one adverb.
~At least one quote or motto, marked by quotation marks.
I see your soul is still searching for her, seeking answers, perhaps. This playing sounds like fun 🙂
Lovely and beautiful my friend<3
Morning! Thank you for being here. 🙂
I love to be here. I have had a busy schedule that did not allow me to visit you and the other blogs I love as much as I would like. Hope you have a wonderful day:) Smiles, Isabella
Hey my friend! I hope your Saturday is full of fun.
Thank you, the same to you:)<3
First, as ever, your words carry a depth of infinite seeking, that brings me to the threshold of my own inner Realm, where I listen for the whispers. It is a pilgrimage which has been eternal, and I find solace in that very thought.
Ready for lift off? Light speed ahead!
Hey buddy! 🙂 I wonder what we will write as we go?
So very you being true to yourself. It’s beautiful, almost like something out of the Song of Songs… I am so glad to see it. {{{PG}}}
(Will endeavor to play along directly.)
Good maybe our travel buddy will play too
That was well done, my friend. Thank you for playing 🙂
I don’t know if it was not love or not but its what happened. It was a good thing to have done thank you for asking me.
