and you were my destiny

On 2022081120220807 By Beleaguered ServantIn Original PoemsLeave a comment
last night again dreams 
of diving in blue waters 
came clear and vivid 
and you were my destiny 
my comfort and warm delight 

and the light came through 
and the others moved in concert 
as though with music 
that i could not quite make out 
with my ears not yet ready.

between these two aches

On 2022081120220807 By Beleaguered ServantIn Original PoemsLeave a comment
all the joy in this 
trembles on a precipice 
between these two aches: 
memories that will not come, 
and those that come unbidden

within and nearby

On 2022081020220807 By Beleaguered ServantIn Original PoemsLeave a comment
sell these words for scrap, 
give it all away for love. 
these habits we form 
fall away without meaning, 
empty, without connection. 

on the verge of dawn, 
value is as always was -- 
within and nearby, 
distant and unreachable, 
unfathomable, and lost

the feeling hides

On 2022081020220807 By Beleaguered ServantIn Original PoemsLeave a comment
image come back 
now, amid the brokenness, 
but the feeling hides -- 
for what we see with the mind 
is only known to the heart

But Poorly

On 2022080920220806 By Beleaguered ServantIn Original PoemsLeave a comment
No one knows the heart. 
We see and judge, but poorly. 
Why do we do this? 
We want patterns to control: 
But the cycle carries us.

quiet angels

On 2022080920220806 By Beleaguered ServantIn Original PoemsLeave a comment
give us such silence 
as befits quiet angels 
 like those who watch us, 
wondering at our mistakes, 
glorying in our long love

More Alive

On 2022080820220806 By Beleaguered ServantIn Original PoemsLeave a comment
Friends, and time well spent: 
It was in forgotten fall, 
We were more alive 
To both possibility 
And our few allotted breaths

Not In Gray, or Dim

How I see you now: 
In the brightest of colors --  
Not in gray, or dim, 
But in the light you most loved, 
And always modeled for us

The Next Is

On 2022080720220806 By Beleaguered ServantIn Original PoemsLeave a comment
When you walked this earth, 
It was much more like you ran -- 
Here, there, in and out: 
This world was all yours to form, 
As I would think the next is
