Wonderwalk one year

Little paradise 

I breathe the thoughts
that surface from my soul
and with surprise and still
I see what comes on screen

Out of the depths they come
on their soft feet, so light,
move cautiously the searching hands,
whisper words in hearing ears

I pass in gratitude
what no one ever owned,
what rustles there in every soul
when it is touched one day

The stream inside seems endless now
has no beginning, is still the same,
keeps whispering
until it stops …
perhaps …

Lovestory

You never ever hurt me
Although I did believe that
What I told me about you
That hurt-ed so intense

Now finally all my stories
Returned to where they came from
And warm light winds start whispering
The new ones in my ears

Soft rains fall now upon me
And cherish and caress me
And new words gentle land
In open fertile soil …

Seeds

Seeds

The seeds that look like words
put down in you so gently

Are waiting for the wind and clouds,
the snow, the hail and frost.

The shell is hard and takes its time
and waits for what’s in store

and suddenly there bursts
what was concealed inside

and that will find its way
in your infinity …

Holy?

Holy?

If life is holy
And death is helly
How would it be for us
When nothing ever dies?

How would it be for us
If death is holy too
How would that be for you?

Would death be there in joy
Like life is there in joy
Would you be free of fear
That death you sometimes brings?

Could death be life as well
And birth also be dying
And you for ever being
From which all’s ever born …

Spirituality?

Spirituality?Spirituality?

What is the opposite of spirituality?
What is spirituality?

What is the opposite of spiritual?
What is spiritual?

Is spiritual better than non-spiritual?
Is non-spiritual better than spiritual?

Every word we use is a concept.

Lost in words and concepts
I make my own world
untill I open my eyes,
see the sun, blink,
and am amazed by all the outside colours
that I see inside

Without words and concepts
I am the world.
And with my eyes closed
I see the beauty
of emptiness …

Mystery

Mystery

To know the mystery of life
that is what we want

Who told us there is a mystery?
When did we start to believe that there is a mystery?

When we stop wanting to know the unknowable
Then, what we wanted to know, will unfold

And then we realize
That there is no mystery
That it is all so obvious
That we didn’t see it

We realize
That life has no purpose
That the purpose of life is life
And that no words are needed for That …

Wisdom

Wisdom

Ignorance and knowledge are opposites.
If you  had all the knowledge in the world, would you be happy?
Would you know then what is the purpose of life?
Would you know yourself?

Wisdom transcends ignorance and knowledge.
Wisdom and joy of life are one and the same.
Wisdom lets you realize that the purpose of life is life.
Wisdom whispers to you that you are wisdom …
