Elizabeth's Poetry Haven

a place of peace, love and freedom of expression

The beauty of the soul is ever-present and expressed in so many ways... through kindness, tenderness, gentleness, serenity, stillness, silence and inner peace for example,  but most of all through love.....

 

NEW MOON SOUL

In fullest presence Self IAM
as gentle soul expressing
from star to star I swing and dance
a shalalean blessing

Great Work done, the alchemy
now quiet contented soul
simply being - free at last
IAM mySelf as whole

Sovereign Soul no more to follow
instead my way I lead
in fullness of the Who IAM
as One with All indeed

Silver Moon and Golden Sun
emerging Self as One
this New Moon Soul among the stars
shines like the midday sun

A New Moon Soul is joy expressed
through love as freedom being
soaring high beyond the clouds
soul-centred e'er so freeing

Written 12 June 2009

 

SOUL ENERGY LOVES FREEDOM

Soul is the love that expresses ItSelf
with a gentleness, beauty and calm
free-flowing energy tranquil, serene
its presence a soft soothing balm

Like the river of life in its natural flow
moving on down to the sea
the Soul is the Self in original form
and as consciousness ever so free

Soul Self so pure like a crystal snowflake
unique as in joy it floats by
then melts into Oneness with all other flakes
a breath of sheer magic on high

Soul Energy Loves Freedom of limitless kind
unbounded in order to be
the Self full expressed in unlimited expansion
such love everlasting flies free

SOULAR POWER

Bright golden rays of the grand central sun
reign forth from the great sacred heart
the centre of all that's resides deep within
the Soul that's Supreme and whose love does impart

A glorious power that's so tranquil yet strong
like the grace of the soft scented rose
secure and stable its demeanour expresses
an effortless life and contented repose

The purest of silence this power embraces
the soul in its blanket so warm
its balm and its calm it does soothe broken wings
and ensures protection from worst of a storm

This power of soul it is fluid in movement
like streams that meander the vales
clouds that are floating on cool gentle zephyrs
or stillness of summertime views o'er the dales

Blossoming soulfully brings forth this power
expressed from the heart as deep love
a peace and a joy of original innocence
freed now at last in the life of the dove

QUEEN OF SOUL

Being Queen of any hive
is worthy of reflection
but best to view the hive where one
resides - for there's perfection

In this hive of industry
the Queen of Soul does reign
cells of sweetness, liquid gold
does run through every vein

The liquid gold so sweet the taste
it fills the chalice well
pouring forth new life for all
gold light in every cell

Honeycomb that radiates
within which Queen of Soul
reigns fully in her sovereignty
perfect, complete and whole

Queen of Soul of many selves
as One, the Self, now merging
full glory in the victory
as Self at last emerging

VESSELS OF DELIGHT

Beauty and elegance now crosses one's path
as one moves through the journey of life
joy unimaginable as love's full expression
a harmonic song whose uplift is e'er rife

Soul speaks its wonder and magical bliss
as vessels we are in this moment of being
flowing as liquid, a gold that's attempting
to free one from past and the now's for the seeing

All present, committed to Being OneSelf
in harmony and balance, as one fully free
delightful expression, in awe of the magic
the heart of the vessel is filled with such glee

Delight in the knowing that All's in the moment
a melody divine is the sweet song of love
soulful vibrations as strings on the harp
are the tones e'er so gently reflecting the dove

Vessels now moving in graceful procession
expressing their beauty and elegance of soul
as pristine as snowdrifts on hilltops on high
with such ease one does move, a delight to the whole

FRAGRANCE OF SOUL

A gentle sweet fragrance of jasmine and thyme
honeysuckle, roses - such scents so sublime
the beauty of soul as enjoyed through the senses
a visual delight through the windows, the lenses

A taste of pure honey e'er so clear and golden
as bees round a pot there's a buzz that's beholden
and heard on the wind like a whisper through leaves
the soul shows its face with a smile in the breeze

Feeling the bliss like a cloud in the sky
floating as cotton balls yonder on high
babe suckling gently on mother's smooth breast
or bird flying free after leaving the nest

Contentedly knowing that life is a gift
with thankfulness being the greatest uplift
gracious expression and all it is calm
fragrance of soul is a quiet soothing balm

SOUL BIRTH

Soul it floats gently in ocean of consciousness
waiting its time to express
in anticipation of full demonstration
it gently prepares to caress

The whole of creation is lived through its being
ideas as many are birthing
emerging with smile on their beautiful faces
sereneness now fully is earthing

Tranquility, innocence - a presence of harmony
flowing with ease and with grace
the soul that's now birthing is love now fulfilling
a destiny let's all now embrace

A gentleness floating through the all of creation
a magic like n'er before seen
this time on the earth is a privilege to witness
and being this beauty supreme

It's here for each soul to partake of through choice
in a timeless and endless perfection
a silence from deep down inside births the soul
to full freedom - complete resurrection

ELEGANCE

An elegance of heaven sensed
on tulle with blossoms white
a butterfly does stretch her wings
while doves a pair so white
a purity of newness felt
within the midnight air
tomorrow dawns a perfect day
it is a spring affair
the seasons come, the seasons go
and life evolves anew
each time one sees a butterfly
or doves in loving hue
such gentleness the scene expressed
serene and innocent
light and dark together now
the fragrance heaven-scent

BREATHLESS BEAUTY

Beauty of soul
breathlessly being
as silver-lined cloud
of moon-like quality
beyond which the sun
golden in hue
shines its light of day
glowing as life
merging as platinum
lifting up life's essence
to heights n'er fore known
the ever-evolving spiral
of eternal purification
ebbing and flowing
a butterfly touch
gentle as a zephyr breeze
soft, serene - a tranquil air
elegance of movement
surreal beauty
the nature of soul

TRUE COLOURS

Cyndi Lauper she sang
in years gone by
a song of renown
no question of why
the song was entitled
" True Colours They Shine"
not quite the original
but surely that's fine
you know what I mean
it's important to see
the original colours
all glistening free
for we were created
magnifico
powerful, unlimited
it is surely so
let's no more question
but now let's accept
the perfect creation
that we do reflect
instantly manifest
all that we can
such elegant quality
the perfected brand
true colours of glory
unique quality
do come from the heart
as soulful beauty

SOFT & GENTLE

It blows ever so gently
this breath of sweet air passing me by
swirling softly through my hair
as I walk the path I almost fly

Such a lightness of step I walk
o'er the hills and through the vales
what views before my eyes
this breeze so gentle sets my sails

No more adrift instead with purpose
I move right on towards the sea
where as the drop is to the ocean
I'm one at last with life as Me

And You, together we do flow
with breath of life that passes through
each of us now softly being
gently glowing, rainbow hue

Eyes which sparkle like the stars
a smile lighting up the face
a depth of soul whose beauty shining
gives to life a loving grace

O sweet air I breathe your moisture
whisp'rin' softly in my ear
how I love this new-found freedom
sounds of song so crystal clear

SPIRIT OF THE WIND

The Spirit She blows as gales and gusts
asserting Her power for in She now she trusts
claiming Her balance - no longer submits
the past is now gone and Her Presence exists

Her presence is evidence that Goddess is here
equanimous now and no longer She fears
and She is in balance at long last with Him
Her Holiness recognised from deep down within

She Holy Spirit the feminine Divine
Goddess of wonder the Now perfect clime
re-membered with reverence and given Her space
Beloved of All in her right sacred place

Breathe Her in deeply each time you inhale
and share Her now widely each time you exhale
for She is the balm which exudes love and peace
and in Her is found such contented release

Miracles abound when She's given her dues
all is now magic and mystical hues
Goddess Divine is now honoured, respected
no more need to blow as the gales reflected

For now She is given her right place in life
her gentleness, calmness and power are now rife
the nurturing, caring of Spirit that is She
as Oneness which brings us to be fully free

Honour the feminine within you and All
for now is the time for equality's call
breathe now with depth, in the wind is She blowing
Her Spirit is Holy and Her bright light is glowing

GOLDEN LIGHT OF THE SOUL

The soul its rays await the call
to shine just like the sun
when at last one sees the light
the victory has been won

For now's the time to see oneself
as "I, the pure Soul"
when with a body harmonised
one then can function whole

At one without the pendulum
which swung one to and fro
one now is free to be at one
in balance with the flow

The golden ray of sunshine
is available to all
within the heart, within the soul
'tis now the perfect call

So let one's soul at last be dressed
in clothes of rays of gold
for then be sure that one is free
to fly as love so bold

IGNITING THE LIGHT OF THE SOUL

That spark of light within us all
the soul our inner flame
desires igniting as the lamp
to burn away the shame
the blame, the conflicts of the past
it's now the time for peace
such sweet remembrance of the truth
our perfect full release

Ignite one's soul, the light of life
eternal way of being
connecting to the One Supreme
of Love forever freeing
surrender all the past for good
and breathe the depth of presence
of Now the time of endlessness
and timeless effervescence

Such light of soul now burning bright
and shining like the sun
no longer darkness of the past
all's light as was begun
the way of light's the way to be
for wonders never cease
reflecting now the Soul Supreme
of love and joy and peace

SOUL SPEAK


Heart it speaks in soulful ways
through breath connected pure
intention one in holiness
and sacredness the lure

Love as one such beauty sought
such perfection known
supremely being naturally
for 'tis the way back home

Peacefulness and joyfulness
and love the truth to be
beyond the known environment
the way to live so free

Speak in tones so gently soft
for then one knows the way
along the path of life that leads
to love in full display

Breathing deep one feels the truth
that all is well and whole
for then one lives from depth of heart
and speaks from one's pure soul

ON WINGS OF SOUL

On wings of soul where angels fly
beyond the clouds to yon blue sky
towards the light of timelessness
one's free to be in peacefulness
of silent stillness n'er for known
experience that one's now at home
at last to be in truthfulness
set free to be in joyfulness
where love divine of essence pure
surrounds each soul, the perfect cure
released at last from worldliness
enjoying rewards of fruitfulness
so flying free on wings of soul
one's home at last where all is whole

SHE WHO IS HE


She who is he and he who is she
united in oneness as it's meant to be
androgynous angel, genderless soul
now fully conscious as purposeful whole

Nurturing goodness in loving expression
beyond the five senses to perfect succession
that's soulful awareness, full beauty exposed
true nature that's peaceful, 'tis such sweet repose

O GODDESS

O Goddess desireth me ye
thou hath been away long
I feel ye presently
thy beauty doth shine forth
thy gentleness caresses my soul
thy serenity graces my day
thy touch, as the butterfly, nurtures me with love
unite ye me as One
Now - all ways

ONE'S ORIGINAL NATURE


One's original nature is soul
loving, peaceful and wise
positive, good and contented
such nature to now realise

Beautiful, gentle and tender
yet joyful and happy at heart
surrender to this way of being
the way that it was from the start

Lightness of soul in expression
is humble and modest and kind
qualities lived in day-to-day life
becoming much easier to find

So thankful for realisation
this brings to the heart as we walk
the path of full soulful awareness
it's time to move beyond talk

Revealing at last now our origin
one's soul is inherent divine
express it assured of one's worthiness
such beauty deserves now its time

COMPASSION'S SONG


The Magdalene she comes again
this tender one will now remain
to join again with Love Divine
to air her beauty so sublime

E'er so kind is she to all
she lives and breathes her loving call
merciful with heart that cares
her love is one with all she shares

Benevolent this one indeed
her beauty shows in every deed
she understands the human way
which feels her touch both night and day

So soft her tenderness is yearned
uplifting life with heart that burns
away the dross of life's past wrongs
to sing at last compassion's song

THE SACRED BREATH


The simple act of breathing in
the sacred breath divine
the sweetness of the breath of hope
enlightens as fine wine

Filling hearts with sounds and smells
of love magnificent
the gift of grace that lifts the soul
a breath that's heaven-sent

Words on wing that evermore
will breathe into the heart
the truth of love's remembrance
that's been there from the start

Eternal spring of love there is
forever flowing free
within the heart of love in all
Soul's gift eternally

TREAD LIGHTLY


Tread lightly in beauty
as one walks along
graciously giving
to all in heart's song

Joyfully render
in light-hearted way
the song of compassion
and love of new day

Touch life with softness
to melt hurting souls
with tender persuasion
all then becomes whole

Surround all in peace
with heart open wide
embracing in love
that wells from inside

Serene and so gentle
the life walked in light
honours the Soul
and gives pure delight

BEAUTIFULLY SIMPLE REALLY


Go into your garden
and sow some perfect seeds
water all your flowers
and pull away your weeds
