Within the here of now



Within the here of now

Within this life of here and now
The trumpet sounds do call
To all which must be rendered
When deeds of action speaks

Within these words composed
Engendered where there found
Words found them in their grounding
Between these living lines
Within the flows that ever ends  

In Storm like strings descending
on these open seas
lines interlacing on floating waves
substance inside reveals its truth
delivered within opening minds
wounds in need of healing
to tender hands it’s given

Life’s songs created
selfless loves with egos held
this life began to ponder
life illuminated to meets its needs
and walk the world and wonder
distant horizons of indication
and open roads before us
search for what restores us
within the mountain streams of life
for nature holds its wisdom
for those who try and see it
