The Diamond of Creations’ Divine

The diamond of creations’ divine

Unconditional love
the diamond
of creations’ divine

Unspoken friendship
shining brightly
as a sky full of stars
on a beclouded winter night

Oh, the inexpressible comfort
the ones we call friends,
you always feel their presence,
even out of sight

Garnered amity
bold hearts behold,
the purpose a random
gift of kindness, love unrestrained

Believing in something
even though you can't see,
but knowing in your heart
it’s eternally real.

forget-me-not
i'll not forget you --

just a raw and real thought
from an emotionally affecting conscious moment...
love is asking for nothing in return --
the love of friends ,...

Liberate Your Dreams ... by harlon rivers

Unlock all those well hidden dreams
Breathe in their
hopeful impending bloom
The colour within
lay barren a swellen bud
yearning like a scorned lover 

thirsty for the bitter sweet 

Astir an unrequited memories ' afterglow

as they slowly wear away the soul

Time tiptoes past unnoticed ;
comes a time .., time came and went
Allusions of forbidden dreams 
of grandeur come unraveled ,  
erode away , everlastingly reshaped
Carved by kismet and circumstance
leaving a broken abrasive hindsight , 
like a mouthful of sweet lies

Uncage those secret buried treasures
beheld so closely a mind-made bastille
Unshackle your pining restless wings ;
cast loose the weight , the gravity borne alone ,
rise above to fly far and away
alighting beyond inborn fears 

Enkindle the soul’s shine in all its splendor ,

stirred by liberated dreams
Uplifted like soaring
diamond constellations brilliance  ,
enriching the harmony of the universe song

Bring to light the essence of verve ;
the inner shine ensconced by shadows
Unfetter that which chastens
the heart’s pulsing esprit

Embrace a feral anticipation 

Imbibe passionate dream's forbidden fruit
Unleash the tameless spirit within ,

pulsing through roiling  veins ,
absolving the raging and restless sole within

Staring inquisitively at the stars beyond the bounds

renewed by an unbridled dreamfulness

searching on a cloud for a lullaby

An ocean full of stars

An ocean full of stars

 There is a sky full of oceans
garnered somewhere
between the stars

 An ocean full of stars
between every mirrored
moonlit wave

 The moment that carries you forward
is also the very moment
of never being able to go back again

 Caught in the incoming tides blossom
when the moment of love rushes in...

A Musical Surrender

A Musical Surrender

Music sweet as love overflows
From my love-laden secret hours .
Music sooth her heart of soul
Impassioned resonance whispers from my heart ,
Beside the gentle, graceful , stream's ripple .
Does the melody arouse some muted desire ?
Flowing peacefully with the river’s song ?

Avow the dazzling starlit sky
Enrapture the sweetest song escaping into nature’s ear .
Above , the moon rains her enchanting beams down
Like flowing notes of effervescent radiance ;
Harmonious , delightful sounds ,
As sad and deep as lamented love's buried treasures .

Surrender to love’s song as the tides of love flood
The barren tide pools of lonely hearts ;
Whatever past tides ebbed away from the love of life ?
Concede the flooding currents fill the heart
So full of love ... the most melodious of all the harmonies ,
That one last drop, one last tear
Of joyful surrender ,  a waterfall .

Let love’s blossoms swell
Into rain awakened flowers .
The genesis of splendor awaits ,
The love song’s intimate accompaniment ,
Yielding an inspiring dream’s transcendence .
Enable the sound of music touch our moonlit slumber
As we embrace in the gentle stillness
Of our merciful surrender…
