Spiritual Poetry

I had an urge to write poetry, so I thought it'd be nice to share it and also to ask if anyone else would like to share theirs? I do very much enjoy reading and appreciating the work of others, it's just a wonderful reminder of the human ability to create! Anyways, here's what just flashed up hope you enjoy it!

Whispers grand, flutter in my ears
Murmurs of wisdom, releasing my fears
The self and the shadow both merge into one
The strain and the ease and the clock ticking on
The Balance, a force ever-shifting at will
a figure of eight that cannot be still
for movement must always be weaving with time
and sowing your story, must end in a rhyme

Love and Light Hope that other people have words to share!

Love it! well writen and full of meaning and feeling xx

That is so beautiful I love it Lantern, so much meaning in it.

Thank you for sharing with us, would you mind if I write this down in my poetry book?

Not at all, go right ahead You should have a go yourself, I know you can do it!

Thank you Lantern, I love poetry, I did write one ages ago, not sure it's spiritual but I will share if that is okay.

Cutting deeper my world is exposed
I’m naked to taunts and now everyone knows
Feeling the gush as my legs start to shake
Darkness enfolds me and pulls me from wake
Slipping in further I’m touching the light
Leaving this here I fall into the night
Grasping, reaching and tasting the pain
Silently wishing my death was in vain
Taking a moment to smell at the roses
A blank photograph of dubious poses
Enter the sandman and save me from grace
And the headstone shall read ‘what a waste’

You wrote some beautiful poems. They have meaning and sound melodic. Here is the last poem i wrote. It's about astral travel during sleep and the great peaceful feeling it gives you. I don't know if i have ever astral travelled, but i guess it's a great experience. Funny thing is, i wrote it in the middle of the night.

The night time travel

The happiness that makes you want to shed
Over the world
A rainbow, not a light…
Lying on silk and pillows in your bed
It’s not just sleep,
It’s flying through the night!
Throughout the flight you’ll climb upon a mountain
Might also jump into a champaigne fountain
Because things aren’t what they seem,
When you prefer to travel,
Not just to lucid dream.

Next day, you know you’ll face reality
Lazily, you procrastinate a while
But then, remembering your dream,
You’ll face the greyness with an accomplice smile.

That's a wonderful poem, shael! I'd love a champagne fountain indeed! I've never astral travelled before, is it something you can learn to do, or are there only certain people who can do it?

Got another one!

There are mirrors, everywhere
into them, I stop and stare
Inside there waits another world
I see myself, the truth unfurled
at times there's much I cannot see
and don't know who I want to be
but as my image shines at me
my eyes become as deep as sea
an ocean reflects my image back
I dive right into waves of black
as rough tides above, are calm below
Sinking into myself, I begin to know
I hope one day it starts to show

keep 'em coming people, there's been wonderful work so far!

I love your poem Lantern. Thanks for the feedback, too. I don't write too often, i can only write when i feel very strong emotions or when i experience something touching. Inspiration doesn't come easily.

I don't know much about astral travel. I think there are techniques anyone can learn, but for better results some natural talent is also necessary.
