It Takes A Celebration
It takes a celebration,
Everyday!
After one graduates,
With a determination to appreciate...
The value of a life lived.
With an erasing done of fear,
That separates an acknowledgement...
When a giving to take,
Does not mean heartbreak is a pre-requisite...
To usher one over the threshold to experience happiness.
Experiencing and going through circumstances,
With chances...
Sometimes may produce mistakes,
That awakens comprehension.
And understanding somehow clicks,
Without it being mentioned.
It takes a celebration,
Everyday!
After one graduates,
With a determination to appreciate...
The value of a life lived.
And this activity comes...
With no time to sit.
As if to nourish...
The flourishing of wisdom.

Determination
Girl the last time I saw you, you were crying my name
When I put you on the spot,
Will you still feel the same
Show me some determination
Show me the measure of your dedication
I need to see just a reflection of your inspiration
Dont you break down on me
Im looking for someone,
Someone strong enough to believe in
Everybodys looking for someone
Strong enough to stand on his feet
And never break down
Ill put my life on the line and believe what you say
Ill go out on a limb if you meet me halfway
Im looking for someone
To show me what they mean by devotion
Everybodys looking for someone
Prepared to put aside his emotion
And never break down
Youre a new wave raver and you like to talk tough
But can you still cut the mustard
When the going gets rough
I need a demonstration of your determination
Give me an indication of your determination
Three days in the rain and I aint had no sleep
But I wont break down now, I got a promise to keep
Showing my determination
cause thats the way I am

Resolute love
Resolute love
~
My love stays strong, resolute
I stand firm amid a promise
to myself more than any other
that I gift my all, my final breath
to the one I love, freely
so they may live

Personally, I believe in self-determination, but in the context of one South Africa - so that my self-determination is based in this region, and with my people.

Long Journey Ridden In Death Paced Spaces
dust darkened brown mustard
pale black rider ridge shadowed
a resolute stillness awakened
haunts solemn purpose onward
motion death bidden fist shadowed
finality mortal clay loom claimed
do you ride resolved
soul determination filled
to certain death scorned
are you already dead
freedom liberty sacrifice pledged
bullets rained rim fired

Never Alone
lying in your hotel bed you cry
for the years that were wasted
and time gone by
darling girl can you not see
your soul is bright
i wish you could know
it's all gonna be all right:
a little determination and a little more pride
a little determination will ease your pain inside.
let me tell you
that you're never alone
yeah

If You But Want Me Too
If you but want me too
I will shelter you...
If you but desire me too
I shall lie alongside you...
You can stir beside me!
And I shall be aroused beside you!
If it's but within your soul
If it's but too within my heart
I'll stumble on your love in the dark
I'll unearth its ebony residence
And together we'll turn that key
And open the loneliest parts of you
In the most isolated parts of me.
And together in our hearts
We'll reside like the sun and rain
Like fire and ice
Like oil and water
But in a complementary role
Like night and day
Like Adam and Eve
You will be the truest measurement
The truest part of me as only
Opposites can be.

For a Distant Friend...
Beauty comes and beauty goes,
Like the Ocean, it ebbs and flows
But the truest beauty can be seen
When mind is sharp and Vision keen.
If you look to your horizon
And your Sight can look beyond
Then truest beauty will you find,
For I can touch you with my mind!

Where Truth Resides
demons base that throughout life hound
may often be considered false not fearful
when fears of false witness are cast aside
when one values opinions of honour integrity
what power can slander wield where truth resides
what strength of will determination reign may
when we release false feigns to their fallen abode
inner will compass set offers new horizons wide
destinies sails full resolute in conflict challenges

Albert Einstein
unified field theory
They say I did not reach my destination, that I was wrong, still I went on, our intent, our wisdom, folly, determination, steadfastness, passion are parts of our soul. You should see my discoveries in the other worlds I was born into, worlds far grander, more interesting in endless positive ways than the one you are in now.

Love Is The Poem Of Life
LOVE IS THE TRUEST POEM
Love is the truest Poem
Caring for others
Giving and sharing –
Without Love
What is Life?
And if Love causes Pain?
And if Love causes sorrow and worry and fear?
Still it is Life
Still it is the best we can be and have.
Love is the Poem of Life
And laughter together
Its Music and Joy.

Wisdom’s value
Wisdom is felt, not learnt.
Wisdom begins at the end;
Wisdom is not wise in time;
Why must you value the wisdom?

Pinnacles
Only a couple of rungs from the top
He fell
Down into the chasm of his
Truest self
The giddiness of the heights
Cooly reflected in the stillness of his
Finally present mind
Able to reject the folly of false illusion
Rivers breaching dams
Rocks pouring out of mountains
Trees taking shape with new limbs
Rich with the fruit of
Wisdom
Feet planted at last
In heavenly stench of saturate Earth.

Resolute
Resolute
~
steady and unchanging
this is a heart of love
worn high upon shoulder
as a badge of the soul
there for the world
and every soul soul to see
time has been indifferent
wounded and healed
scarred and kissed
yet it remains in place
it beats on regardless
a heart of love forever more
steady and unchanging
now it has a name to call
a love to grow into
this is a heart
resolute
