Elizabeth's Poetry Haven | a place of peace, love and freedom of expression

I have decided to feature one or two of my poems on a regular basis.......herewith is my current choice/s:

SEA OF ONE

I sit on the window sill watching the sea
a blissful-like feeling it overcomes me
soothed now I am by the ocean's persuasion
the swell of the waves on each rising occasion

I find I'm drawn in by the ebb and the flow
observing the movement - the come and the go
like each breath I take - there's an in and out
somehow the sea is what life's all about

The rhythm, the pulse in this centre of being
has me engulfed and is ever so freeing
merging, emerging I watch all the more
I feel myself floating right into the shore

A drop in the ocean some think does not matter
yet without this drop the result is a tatter
for while one is here in this ocean of time
a drop to the ocean's perfection sublime

Within the drop is the crystal reflection
the whole of the ocean in all its perfection
the value of each is reflected in all
and perfect is this so no longer the fall

So in this observance as one with the sea
I know I am it and the sea it is me
All That There Is is expressed through each drop
and together do merge with the One at the Top

So I sit on the window sill watching the sea
with this blissful-like feeling surging through me
soothed by the ocean - its rise and its fall
I know I am One with the Is that is All

CROSSING THE LINE

Time now for drawing a line in the sand
like the lapping of waves on the shore
in crossing the line there is no turning back
the Divine now is calling me more

Leaving behind all that no longer serves me
there's no-one demanding of me
in walking this way now at last I'm Al-One
and can see I am now free to Be

Need only be present for Self, in so doing
the way of the free I can see
accountable now to mySelf and Self only
and the rest is departing from me

The past now has gone and no longer for me
instead now am present Al-One
no other being I need now consider
so simple is life on one's own

Divine life of freedom continues to beckon
with my back on the past now I walk
have now crossed the line and there's no turning back
as I desire to walk now my talk

THE BOOK OF LIFE

O the joy and ecstasy of peace and love prevailing
when all around is seen as love, there's nothing now that's ailing
purely loving all is well and in the widening view
a myriad of colours of a perfect rainbow hue

The story of eternal life is gradually unfoldin'
IAM God knows the joy of all that's here for beholden
I've given all that is mySelf and in the present scene
I see that all is perfect in a way that is Supreme

And now we are enjoying life at last as meant to be
we've come into a state that let's us be forever free
no matter where the journey leads continue on and write
the words are Be Ye Perfect and there is no wrong or right

Do stop awhile along the path, reflect and comtemplate
the past from where one's come and know it's time to celebrate
for while the book of life's eternal written all the while
'tis worthy to enjoy the sun and beam a magic smile

For in the book of life we write the journey is the tale
which leads us on to that which is, release the need to wail
instead just write the book you live each moment of each day
and in its words exude the fact that love and joy's the way
