Walking with Purpose

Walking with Purpose Walking with purpose, You passed by Like a mission on the wing. A new song came belching From the center of your Being. I, in silence sat, With smiling Heart And forehead. Then, passing by again Your eyes caught mine, Shifting for a moment, Purpose now is greeting; As once again love controls Our meeting. © 2007 Shams-i Sign in to see full entry.

My Sister Grew Up Fat

My Sister Grew Up Fat My Sister grew up fat, And I, before her, grew up too smart For my own good. A nerd, a tuba lard; The scars of our youth;| The gifts of growing up wise and strong. How we choose the path we take, Still is A Mystery to Shams. Shams says: Embrace it ALL. © 2007 Shams Sign in to see full entry.

How Sad to Hear

How Sad to Hear How sad to hear You respond to fear Cutting off communication. I am still a simple soul Trying to grow in Love & Faith And Goodness. You are too: Shams trusts you To return. Unburdened of that fear Ready to unlearn All false definitions Of Love. Before you ran from me I asked for one kiss; You gave me six. Now the student Has become the teacher. © 2007 Noosphere Communications Sign in to see full entry.

The Victory Is Won

A man can no more diminish God’s glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word darkness on the walls of his cell. -C.S. Lewis The Victory Is Won Oh Ye of Little Faith, What makes you think The Universe cares about Your Petty Unbelief? Do you imagine That you can change One Iota of Love’s Truth By your fear based religion? The reckoning you preach and fear Will come too soon. And only Mercy and Compassion Will survive!

This Heaviness Is Not Real

Your horoscope for Thursday, Sep 27, 2007 Cancer (Jun 21 - Jul 22) You may be quite willing to demonstrate what you have to offer now, especially within the context of romance or creative endeavors. But this isn't a very light-hearted phase for you. You play for keeps whether you are working on a job, creating your artistic masterpiece or just looking for love.

Your Voice Is Clearer Now

Your Voice Is Clearer Now Beloved, I am so thrilled When I hear your voice, With such love and grace filled. So soft so still I am learning to listen To know Your Voice is real. Oh, Beloved, I talk too much. My incessant chatter Leads me astray From the things that matter. Help me turn down the volume Of this overactive mind. And listen to Your Still Small Voice, Sober Ecstasy Sublime © 2007 Noosphere Communications Sign in to see full entry.

I once knew a dervish

I once knew a dervish I once knew a dervish Who could turn and dip All in the same moment. She was drunk with God. Ya Jamilla, her beauty Lifted us to Holy Realms And More. And all the while, Our feet and hers Stayed grounded On the floor. She turned so fast Our heads would spin; Our hearts would leap for joy! In those moments We turned with her And Unity adored. The secret to the perfect turn Is to do it every day; To dance in life And treat all strife As God inspired play. © 2007 Shamsuddin... Sign in to see full entry.

Deep Enough to Frame

Deep Enough to Frame This confession and Apology Comes from the deep heart-well Where 'the still small voice' Speaks only love, Only beauty, Only forgiving harmony For each mean moment, I sorrow truly Hoping you can forgive. Free yourself from the flaws Of my unlearning. Let there be no more burning. Take a cup from the Beloved's Well. Taste full the cooling sweetness, Purity refreshed. For every angry mood, Or word, Or action, Forgive me, if you will; For my Mastery is minuscule, My shame is... Sign in to see full entry.

My Desire Is

My Desire Is My desire is this: To know you as you are As God, in perfect wisdom, Created You. I am consumed In Perfection's glowing fire When, finally, I can Share your Presence. I have been here before, So, with great deliberation and caution I move closer.... open wider.... And surrender to this headiness. And, why not? I am a figment, An ephemeral wave In the ocean of God's Love. There is Truth to be shared here. There is Light that will Lay our Souls bare And that, Beloved, Is becoming my...

This may be slightly x rated

Let Me Drink Deeply Oh, Sweet Beloved One, Let me drink deeply Your Presence in this wine. Your breasts do give me suckle; Your lips are soft and fine. Oh, Holy, Precious Sister, Sweet Goddess of The Day Cuddle gently with me now That soaring Hearts may play. The dance we do is sacred, The obligation: Love. The Grace to dance together Is from the One above. Come with me, my butterfly, Your Heart has wings To rise above Upon this breath. From high aloft You'll see with me All life; There is no...
