Weaving Shadow Into Wingbeats
kingfisher spread your wings
in sudden flight above the water
be your perch rock or branches
fly free launch faith above water
“a soulhunter upon water”
plumage sparkles dazzles
soul soaring upon water
dream sharing dart visions
binocular vision colour vision
irises perceive distance piercing
compensate refraction of water
underwater reflection in hunting
able to judge underwater depths
accurately perceiving heartbeats
weaving shadow into wingbeats
fly with me swift healer of souls

Heart Beat Of The World
I often close my eyes with you,
even before we first spoke,
we talked in dreams shared,
eyes closed we listened to dreams,
to the heart beat of the world,
the pulse of an entire universe.

Dedicated to Miroslava Odalovic, a sharer of dreams.

The Miracle Of Life In Conception
behold the miracle the wonder
captured 'a pure breath inspired'
walking radiant footsteps upon
surface of blue green clay ball
energies infused in life breath
'clayed whispered of the mind'
open to potential in life energy
open to beauty in noble hearts
inspiring warming heating cold
stone statue hearts into miracle
reborn life changes new energies
behind eyelashes opening wide
in clear vision sung in life song
singing harmonies in star crystal

A Child’s Unique Insight: Free Drawing
Terence Craddock said
“Rachael studies pictures
with an eye for detail,
like story books, always
picks me, younger Hesti,
no; too many changes.”
Miroslava Odalovic replied
“Both my daughters
have a great talent for art
which will be systematically
destroyed throughout their
education.” Interesting?
And Terence Craddock replied
“studied that once,
(for personal curiosity
interesting research data
a child’s unique insight)
at free original drawing,
then adult drawn examples,
one change, each creeps
into their work, their originality
goes, the introduced becomes
their work, ” primary normality.
And Miroslava Odalovic replied
“Blaza could draw for hours
(once measured the time
as I was worried, it was 4 hours)
when small, now she's too lazy
to finish a drawing at school,
as it is a homework.” Work?
Key word work establishes
dictates perceptions controlled,
it is fun to independent childhood
play, when framework superimposed
is rigid, staff inflexibility adhered
to; options abilities are limited boxed.

Reborn
Sub-aqua marine blue
accosts my [limpet] eyes
my retinae shrink
childhood parties, balloons nestling against
my [naked] knees
The depths of the [saline] sea
seen from the Arahura,
Acrid, acid the salty, sandy seawater
Sprays up and I inhale
all that
is [suffuse] sea
blue
the
Blue green dark wine water
embracing me now
with the warm comfort
of a long lost
yet now sought womb.

The Truth Written Within Us
If God is truly within us as God claims?
Then truth written in our soul there retains?
The answer to life questions in our souls we may seek.
Deep within God wrote words of wisdom truth that speak.
How can we accept knowledge of what can be found there?
God gave our conscience to discern truth do not despair.

Defining A Good Life
lifeline written
in the palm

a secret humanity
finds hard
to understand
a long life
is not necessity
a good life
if a short life
is a good life
