may this morning’s peace
blow in all the right directions
not away from but into hearts
may the curve of question
be a cowl of protection
from wind’s cold dust today
may its legs walk always
in beauty’s wonder so world’s
grace spring up like flowers.

My experience of the poetic is truly a journey in understanding of the best in us. Conversing with a fellow poet about what poetry is, I heard myself saying: “In the poetic, one cannot help but be ethical. Poetry insists on it!” I wondered then what I had stated without thinking. I came to understand what I had not been able to articulate before — that, indeed, the poetic is a commitment to creating a path to fulfillment on a foundation of virtue.
Did you know that you are a poem unfolding? Continuously? Consider how poetry brings you closer in touch with your Self. How the poetic process bridges worlds.
Golden Matrix Visions offers a perspective on how to access that poetic within by inspiring in you what is already there. Stay present to yourself.
The best of world cultures is sourced through poetic utterance, be it narrative, drama, music, the oral tradition, and, importantly, revealed gems about our origins and cosmic vibration through rhythm and meter. Sadly, for a long time, human culture has been fragmented and led by terrifying shadow.
While shadow informs us of a kind of beauty, if unresolved, it creates havoc. People are running amok tearing apart homes, lands, and natural environs. Where will the poetic arise and invite us to co-create in a different way, so we can access the creative spirit in such a way that we bring heaven to earth?
I share this poem that flowed through in June 2006, “Birds of Paradise in Dance with Light.”
Let your poetic spirit commune & shine. Be transformed by the poetic in you. I encourage you to write daily your thoughts that “do often lie too deep for tears” (William Wordsworth)
