Sun scrolls attention in an unpredictably silent performance
GOLDEN PHILOSOPHIES Sun scrolls attention In an unpredictably silent performance. The third eye twitches with new possibilities. A phoenix in me courts ancestral memories. Venerated ancient leaders Confucius, Plato, Gandhi, King Acclaimed poets, prophets, teachers Laozi, Du Fu, Rumi, Whitman. Shadows of greatness Fly and fall on a canvas of radiant light. Intuitive recognition of shimmering moments Deciphered, by whose standards? Churches, temples, mosques Show perennial hope. Sacred texts promise eternal life. Meditative messages transmit Treasured instructions.

Reviews of "Golden Philosophies"

Reviewed by Ronald Hull

Reviewed on July 14, 2019

So much time and energy spent on building temples to impress gods when the real treasure is what is written on the pages of experience. That's what I see in your poem. The words and phrases, "I have a dream," that propel us forward into a better future than we had when those words were originally written.
