Things Learnt When Sitting On a Mountain. Part 2.
Che-urru was a small man from a small village.
A fisherman.
All day long he would work,
To catch many fish, so that he might sell them.
Che-urru would dream, many dreams,
of the things his hard work would buy him and
In these dreams he would become as a king,
bedecked with finery and all the power to command.
The sun was shining in a cobalt sky when Che-urru
Heard a sweet song drifiting...
All the Good men are gay?
A friend recently reblogged this:
THEY ARE ALL GAY. I LOVE GAY MEN BUT THIS IS GETTING ANNOYING.
And I dunno, maybe it’s the way I’m feeling today, perhaps it’s the weather… But the unintended inference is that because I am not gay, i’m not desirable or good.
Now, at this point many of you, my friends, are reaching for the “don’t take it so...

Things Learnt When Sitting On A Mountain. Part 1
And the time it came to pass
As all things, it was decided, need to do.
The great ones looked and in looking
created
The trees, the birds, the air and the protons,
by observation they created all
the things in the universe and all at once,
It was alive and all at once it ceased to be,
for all time was as one, existing in the same moment
in the eyes of the great ones.
And so time passed...

If Only I could Let you Know
If only I could let you know,
The nights I have spent longing for you.
The pit just here between my stomach and my heart,
How it sings out for you when you are not near.
If only I could let you know,
Just what you mean to me.
If only I could let you know;
How many angels upon a pin head,
How infinite the mind is,
How large the soul
And how small the first tear that was cried,
when the...

At this time I would…

A Simple Love Song
Its getting late and I should really be in bed Under cover safe and sound But the thought of you Is running through my head All I can do is write a simple love song All I can do is set down feeble words All I can do is write a simple love song And sit and hope my song is heard All the things we know and thrive upon Will one day reach their timely end. All the things that make us, ...

My Holy Love
I Wander no further,
Here I am home,
Hide no heart,
Here I am loved
Give me no succour,
For here am I filled.
If God is love
Then you are my God
And all your poetry shall be written
As a prophet writes a psalm.
an old Cherokee told his grandson, "My son, there...
