bright forest

Posted on October 9, 2015 by jaybeasley2

Breezy movement wakes up the skin
Right when the light comes in through the leaves
Inside the courtyard of a cozy tiny kingdom
Golden rays shine on the metal table
Hitting the wet plants and fuzzy red cactus

Tucked into the spot where I can rest in my shady chair
Finding a cool drink and a pocket off silence right where I left them
On the end of today’s long exhausting path
Restless eyes and tired minds shake hands
Evidenced by the weak smiles and slow stretches we share
Soft sounds of nature and
Tiny glad minutes mean so much

ignorant bliss

Posted on October 9, 2015 by jaybeasley2

I am not like that, I can’t
Go hide out in the fort,
No, I have to be out and about,
On the move and always ready,
Really On the prowl or on
A battlefield when it counts,
Needing only quickness and wits
To take over the scenario,
Because you only live once
Let all of your individuality flow
Into the river of universal existence
Stay true to yourself and feel the world
Show your shine and follow your heart

three

Posted on October 7, 2015 by jaybeasley2

Placed on top of the mountain
There are only so many options
Available at that point,
You could attempt to travel down
A long path between the sharp rocks and
Icey patches in order to join up at the bottom
With everyone else’s confusion,
Or you could sit at the top
As the stillness takes hold
And stop where the air has been calm
In the kind of meditation only this place can bring,
But you could
Stand
Up
At the top of the mountain
Looking up at the expanse of sky
And drinking in the light and
Being lifted toward where the birds fly
While your spirit
Joins your mind with the clouds…
Such is life.

the inner galaxy

Posted on October 6, 2015 by jaybeasley2

Tested by the complicated life you could not choose
Heated up by a future and burned By your past
Each day Had less icey conversations in it
Inside a collection of thoughts that fire off
Naturally bright like a collection of green candles…
Nocturnal thoughts combines with the daylight of inspiration
Eager nerves that fire recalling a display in the sky
Red reflections in the mirror of your broiled skin
Gently reminding your nerves how well they should work
Among those who can find electric dance moves
Lifting spirits by hearing the tribal bass and singing blood
Art in the movements that swirling indigo color brings out
X is the symbol on the door that we enter
Yearning to have you near in this party we call life

we are the best pain

Posted on October 4, 2015 by jaybeasley2

slow,
stopping for shelter,
the thoughts are ultimately distracting,
worse than anything that can actually be seen,
like a slow acting poison that seeps on in,
more disgusting than an addicted
homeless person trading a dog for drugs,
a really powerfull diversion can only
do so much
and bitterness is inherent in the system
when trust curled up and died before birth,
and no one,
even you,
can heal that wound
unless we can both
jump in the volcano

donate your taste

Posted on October 3, 2015 by jaybeasley2

dynamite energies converge
over the making of a not
normal evening made even better
after a few selfish types,
together with the sun, have left
eager eyes root through the
yawning crock pot
of our overly inactive room
using the feeling to get through the
reeling eyes and impatient disgust that
takes you down as it fills you up
answering a question never asked
staying awake until dawn again
the thoughts do not stop arguing
even as the joy and coffee wakes up

next day blues

Posted on September 25, 2015 by jaybeasley2

Normally I would not care
Even go so far as to not be here
X marks the spot where the heart is buried
Take a moment to breathe
During the times I am thankful
About all that I have and what I want
Yes I am a unique kind of man
Becoming a knight in the service of
Love and dedication
Using my time as best as possible
evening is my
Solitude with you

new irish toast

Posted on September 24, 2015 by jaybeasley2

May the days get better from here,
And the rough times always be smoothed out.
May the storm always be followed by light and the times that you Have the darkest night be followed by the warmest sun. May the song that is sung bring happiness to your mind and May the rest that you get refresh and recharge every part of you. May you never struggle to come Across your next meal and May you have a roof over your head all the rest of your days. May all the friends you have be sturdy and faithful, and May all of your enemies move far away and forget your name. May all the pains you feel be easily relieved, and May each day remind you of happy times.

in the backyard

Posted on September 23, 2015 by jaybeasley2

In your eyes I see a
Nightlight out in the yard
Tiny reflections of blue
Having a rest out in the cool
Evening beside the swaying plants
Billowing in the breeze while
Across the sky the clouds dance by
Curling birds drift around
Keeping time with the windchime
Yellow candle flame that can
Arrange the energies appropriately
Right in time for a goodnight kiss
Dark clouds stop knitting together for the moon

dawn of war now

Posted on September 21, 2015 by jaybeasley2
dealing and ready to delay
a past and long forgotten times
when we met so far away
not this or any other day i regret
on the year we were together often i changed
from that i took a life lesson so important
were you with my when i left
are you aware of the place and area of existence i currently reside in
right at this energy i became close to the past
not one minute i can avoid who i am
on the roof of an aura i once avoided
who i became is all thanks to you, my dear
