as far
as the eyes
shall see
that
elegant
scent of morning
to measure
our
memories with
that
sprinkle of dawn
softly
capture then whispered
through
the
atmosphere
thus
elevated
that
glorious shine
still transcends
what
beauty and grace
are the
jewel and cornerstone
crafted by God
and
as far as the eyes shall see
here comes the sun

and bow down
to God almighty
ask for forgiveness

black
is not
a color
but
a
spiritual power
within
when
God
created himself
out of darkness
out of nothingness
the
sparkle of
the atom
witness
every color
through
the
cosmic vacuum of
space and time
bring forth
green
red
orange
yellow
blue
violet
and
a slice of indigo

As long as we know the compass spins true,
North may wander, but the heart will pursue.
Detours and storms may test us along the way,
But hand in hand, we'll find a brighter day.

Though shadows lengthen, doubts may take their stand,
As long as we know love lights the shifting sand,
We'll build a beacon, a fortress warm and bright,
Guiding each other through the darkest night.

For even when lost, a whisper can ignite,
As long as we know, together we take flight.
Stu Harley Dec 2023
Claudius, I see your face in this lonely crowd
Your voice, as loud as the wind
Just listen to your soul, again

What dwells inside the sparrow’s heart
Today, I walk along the shores of tomorrow
Do not weep, my green-blue sparrow

Break bread again or this chance shall end
We dance between sweet earth and moon

If you drink nectar with the Greek Gods,
You shall achieve immortality
I think I hear the God Zeus chuckle

Thirsty blue sky, I shall not drink of thee

These wings have climbed stairs and clouds,
Achieving pure flight, in the silent wind

Claudius, I see your face in this crowd
Your voice again, as loud as the wind
Stu Harley May 2016
I'm
captured by
your eyes
stone black iris
surrounded by
a sea of pumpkin orange

a snowy white owl

when the
aspen trees gather
in red autumn
still
we hear
the pastel colors
whistling through
this sacred wind

the
reflection of
aspen trees
and
