The eyes

.

Those mirrors of the soul
Have touched me again
Wiped out all my objections
Confirmed my true feelings
That had been safely stored
In yonder deep cave
Of memories
Past their best by date
Revived by the love
Reflected in those deep pools
Of your true emotions
And mine
Affirmation of our ever enduring
Affliction and subduction
To the laws of attraction
Therefore as long as it takes
I’ll wait
For your loving hand
When you will return
To stay
As I am yours
In mind and body and soul
And obey what we mirror
In each others
Sounds, smell and taste
And feel
The comfort and trust
As radiating
From the innermost
And seen in
The eyes

Hein S.

All's well that .......?

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL

My kid come down with Pfeiffer
Rough and sore throat
Unbearable tummy ache
Another hospital visit
On Boxing day
With inconclusive results

My broken heart
put in a blender
Of rollercoaster emotions
Will it produce
A life juice
Or will it be my utter destruction

Another good friend suddenly dead
After reacting well
On chemotherapy for his
Brain tumor
Funeral on Tuesday
Can I handle more grief

Do I have any choice
But to live through
These dark days
At the end of this disaster year
With hope and best wishes for a better!

Balance ?

A balanced life is about

taking this rocking world in your stride.

Sometimes you stumble.

Strive for what is rightfully yours.

Balance !

Ah to Tweet or to re-Tweet, here the answer !

I lead and dance among the stars
Where dust merges with thoughts
Into clouds of perception
And realize the poets dreams.

When the echo of love still fills the heart

Still you shine

Touching your skin
Feeling silk under hand
Tingling of the senses

Kissing your lips
Rushing blood through veins
The love burning heart

Looking in your eyes
Sinking in fathomless pools
The abyss of the ocean

Shining in your light
From the deepest crevasse
The sparkling luminous soul

Another poem inspired by the master ;-))

To Rumi

Through the opened gates
And broken dikes
My love for you is flowing

Connecting to all beyond
And concealed love
In turbulent outward going

Filling purpose and direction
And prison bonds released
It’s life itself you’re showing

Hein S.

Beyond the thorns

At the end of summer
The roses still flower

After the bloom is gone
She will bear fruit

Hein S.



Inspired by the master :


Bittersweet


In my Hallucination
I saw my Beloved's flower garden

In my vertigo
In my dizziness
In my drunken haze

Whirling and dancing like a spinning wheel

I saw myself as the source of existence
I was there in the beginning and
I was the spirit of love

Now I am sober
There is only the hangover

And the memory of love
And only the sorrow

I yearn for happiness
I ask for help
I want mercy

And my love says
Look at me
And hear me because

I am here just for that
I am your moon and your moonlight too
I am your flower garden and your water too

I have come all this way eager for you without shoes or shawl
I want to laugh to kill all your worries

To love you
To nourish you

Oh Sweet Bitterness!

I will soothe you and heal you
I will bring you roses
I too have been covered with thorns

Eenzame gedachten

Eenzaam en alleen

Diep in gedachten

Personality returned in the mirror

Design rerouted from Styx

Ceramics of the essence
True value it contains

Poems forged with words
Of proverb, rhyme and song

Sparks that follow the metal
In quarks and quantum leaps

Stuff that dreams are made of

Sleepy thoughts in TOFFF, the Dutch LinkedIn virtual bar (and so much more!)

Slaap

Het focus punt
van zijn gedachten
uit het donker
naar het licht

Gruwelijk
zit hij
te smachten
naar het lieve wicht

Somber
is zijn stemming
het rijmt
maar is het dicht?

De fles
in geen geval
de bodem
komt in zicht

Zo borrelen
zijn gedachten
tot voor slaap
hij zwicht

For a friend :

Inspiration


The fire of my muse

Drops from the sublime

It flames through my soul

And spawns words of rhyme

Hein S.

Retrograde

If all the kings horses
And all the kings men
Could not keep me
Away from you then

If heroes of old
Could not thus withstand
The forces of nature
When gods forced their hands

So how can they now?
That I hold the charms
And Mercury forces
My return to your arms

Hein S.

The one

Of destiny's unending path
Where legends live and end

Of Re Horachte flying from dawn
And whatever lies beyond

Of all known histories
And epic odysseys

Of alchemistic wisdom stones
And magic flutes

Of white rabbits
And new born matrices

Of each new eras that breed
And new history in its wake

Of all stories just remade
And the essence of destiny within

Of living through
And tests of brimstone and fire

Of what it takes
And fulfillment at its end

Of one emerging from the crowd
And discovering the torch

Of she who lights his path
And gives him his magic sword

Of conquering all evil
And releasing all

Of all ends that will be told
And the one that shall be king

Hein S.

NEW CYCLE

Of mind, heart and arms

The opening of my mind
When I gather specks of stardust
The opening of my heart
When I dance into existence my heaven
The opening of my arms
When I invite to waltz among the planets

The welcoming of your arms
When you expand life to hold us both
The welcoming of your heart
When you light my trail
The welcoming of your mind
When you point me where to lead you

The joining of our minds
When we generate and spill sparks of wisdom
The joining of our hearts
When we overflow and never empty
The joining of our arms
When we dance eternity's celestial celebration



And thus a new cycle starts
The circle has no end

Hein S.

Untranslatable Dutch poem of patience ;-))

Geduld

Ooit ga ik het doen
Ik wacht op het goede moment
Ik heb zoveel(zo veel) geduld
Van zo velen

Ooit ga ik het maken
Ik wacht tot het werkt
Ik heb zoveel(zo veel) geduld
Met zo velen

Ooit kom ik weer
Ik wacht op het moment
Ik heb zoveel(zo veel) geduld
Met te velen

Ooit word ik verliefd
Ik wacht op antwoord
Ik heb zoveel(zo veel) geduld
Met die ik, kan velen

NU is het op
Ik ben al begonnen
Ik heb geen geduld
Met heel velen

Alleen die enkele
Waar ik op wacht
Daarvoor heb ik geduld
Die kan me wat schelen.

Hein S.

This is to mark the end of the first cycle of poems

The poetry in this cycle was influecnced by my emotions following a very rough year with several deaths among close family and friends.
It was also inspired by new love of life and some very special women.
And last but not least by something called "Human Design" which expanded my view.



The whole cycle

When the journey started
All was strange
And beyond comprehension
Fear and doubt ruled my heart
The nights were grey and black
And then the stars did speak
The mysteries revealed
I was set free when low on hope
By submission I was given a chance to lead
And together we went in search of new horizons
No rest no respite nowhere to flee
no way no play no say
I saw the spice of life
Patience was key for the one I care for
To be free, contribute, create
The souls found their place
The door was open
But to be handled with care and attention
Words failed me, it was so much more.
With the best company I can imagine
I had arrived and felt at home
The soul at rest
Love passion and fire
I hope, want and look
Invited to expand the universe
Sensing the art love
Columns and fun
The razor and the straw
A most treasured pearl came up from the deep
We shared the raging fire
Love in the spotlights
Surrendered to sleep
Reflections of the heart
Quarks and sparks
Completely empty and so fulfilled

And then this cycle was finished
And the circle became whole

Hein S.

For the LinkedIn IEDP columnists in admiration

After publicating a series of columns with the theme "sex"

SEX

I am completely empty today and so fulfilled
I felt the depth of your emotions
Sensed the expanse trough your skills
Blinding lights of celestial fire
The universe collapsed into a black hole
Nothing left but it is all there

Hein S.

Celestial fire

Sparks flying.
Quarks up Quarks down
Spinning in infinity!
Quantum mechanics in action.

Suddenly life is

Therefore dear
only pure hearts

Hein S.

With love ..........

Burn baby ..... BURN

We will connect soon.
We will find a time and place.

We will add the fuel
We will have a raging fire

We will burn in heat
We will melt together

We will fuse at core
We will succumb to ecstasy

We will simmer down
We will bask in the light of love

We will rest and recuperate
We will start again

Haiku cycle in Dutch

Voor die ik lief heb

Aaneengeregen
Liefdescirkel gevangen
In vorm van haiku

Lente emotie
Is ruw ongepolijste
Toekomst essentie

Zomer verlangen
Is rijp en vol belofte
Licht en zo krachtig

Herfst belevingen
Zijn gevangen en oogstklaar
Voldragen met kleur

Winter beloften
Zijn sneeuw en rijp vorst
Slingerend met glans

Voorjaar herboren
Zijn ervaringen verwerkt
Pril groen op oud hout

Hein S.

The Straw:

Please be gentle and patient with me.
I am open.
Have dropped all defenses for you.
You come in very strong.
Sometimes over-modulated.
Distortion follows.
And pain.

Yes you can break the camel's back.
It is a very tough and strong creature.
But it too has its limits.
You are on the razors edge dear.

But always be true to your inner self.
Enjoy this fabulous life.

Love.

You know I do.

I hope to enrapture you
I hope to bind you

I hope to blind you
I hope to enthrall you
I hope to mind you

I HOPE TO CAPTURE YOU

I want to find you
I want to see you
I want to feel you
I want to touch you
I want to hear you
I want to taste you
I want to hold you

I WANT TO LOVE YOU


I look forward
I look ahead
I look at the horizon
I look in the distance
I look to the future
I look out there
I look expecting

I LOOK FOR YOU

Hein S.

At home

At home here
At home there
At home anywhere

At home is in your presence
At home is where I find peace
At home is where my soul rests !

Hein S.

The moth, the flame, the phoenix, the one

When it circles near it draws its energy
When it gets to close it gets singed
When it touches the flame it is burnt
When it surrenders to the core it is enveloped

It resurrects with the phoenix
It rules the world with his name
It lives to be queen of the 9 fold
It becomes singularity with the one.

Dearest,

You are right !
And so wrong !

In your observations-

When I received her message I was confused/surprised
Not blown away in the least.
Yes I do have very strong feelings for her.
But I know things that unlikely will be overcome.
Moral issues that clash with my core.
There is no more attachment or obligation.

I am truly free !

My bitterness has its proper place.
It is linked to a person.
Who is no more.
I am not bitter with life nor with you.
I have no hang-ups or resentments that bug me.

I am truly free !

I can be what you envisage.
I do have those capacities
I can be (your) master.
But refuse to have slaves.
I go for free choice.

I am truly free !


I do not expect to build a house in a day.
Or create a home in two.

I want you to trust me.
I want you to build with me.

I want to start a journey.
With the best company I can imagine.

YOURS

And I would be,

Hein S.

To Caroline for contributing to my discussion on LinkedIn

Caroline

If anyone ever
YOU are a part of the whole

A big part I might add
An important part I know

A beautiful part I have seen
A creative part I experienced

An asset I am convinced
A mind I admire

Nice?

Words fail me.
It is so much more.

Let your light shine
We will focus it in a beacon

Publication guaranteed
Let her rip!

On Pots

Just for Chris ;-))



Turn them out

Churn them out

High fired

Low fired


They come in all shapes

But some receive a special love

So valuable

So carefully stored

Locked away and safe

Guarded with your life


Forgotten to be seen

Handled with care and attention

Enjoyed with sight and touch

Loved by having there


Relax,

do not go potty.


Hein S.

Lost souls

When they arrive here,
They have found their place?

When souls have found their place,
Are they then lost?

Can any souls ever
Be truly lost?

All souls welcome
Our door is open!

Sweet fancy

Is flight a sweet fancy
whether from to flee
or from to fly

Is flight a fleeting fancy
Whether from to flee
Or from to fly

Is flight a floating fancy
whether from to flee
or from to fly

Is flight a sorrow fancy
whether from to flee
or from to fly

I rather think my flight a sweet fancy
fleetingly floating and fleeing the sorrow.

Some rest, if only for a week
To escape and regroup

And reach decisions
Where none are easy

Sun filled land
with unseen horizons

inspire me
and tell me

How confused can a poem be?
What is my sweet fancy?

Concealed

Lease of life

In the blackness of the universe
The grim reaper and I do battle
I wield my double fiery sword
Black scythe and it thus rattle

Fleetingly he is often seen
More times than once a year
And in my shadow's lonely wake
Calls many loved one near

In the blackness of the universe
The grim reaper and I do battle
I wield my double fiery sword
Black scythe and it thus rattle

I try and keep him well at bay
With all wit I can muster
He manages to take with ease
Those near me with a fluster

In the blackness of the universe
The grim reaper and I do battle
I wield my double fiery sword
Black scythe and it thus rattle

For it is there the black one hunts
Recruiting from my heart
He steals what I so care about
Far cleverer than I'm smart.

In the blackness of the universe
The grim reaper and I do battle
I wield my double fiery sword
Black scythe and it thus rattle

Thus fighting darkness with my light
The shadow creeping nearer
I push the cared for far away
The more so with the dearer

In the blackness of the universe
The grim reaper and I do battle
I wield my double fiery sword
Black scythe and it thus rattle

With hope as shield I hold my own
His darkness still the weaker
The power that he fields
That of occasions seeker

In the blackness of the universe
The grim reaper and I do battle
I wield my double fiery sword
Black scythe and it thus rattle

My trusted blade is holding true
But when it no longer fires
I too will have to let go of life
It is when my lease expires

In the blackness of the universe
The grim reaper and I do battle
I wield my double fiery sword
Black scythe and it thus rattle


Hein S.

Dearest

If only you did understand how much, I do !

At this moment in time

And for reasons obvious to me

And you are !

Most valuable

The spice of life

And I bow

To you

Most humbly

Yours !


Hein S.

Lead

Leaders lead and are bound by their commands.

Who is master who is slave?

Is not the actor bound by the playwright's text?

Where does the direction come from?

Carefull with your subtle submission

Who knows where you will lead

Hein S.

Free

Night
Starry night
Fires all raging
Lights so faint
Blues and grays
Pictures seen by all
Darkness in your soul
Little hope left inside
Understanding
Friend’s love
Soothing
Set free
Free

Hein S.

New horizons

As if I could imagine
And create a future
And bluff it into existence
As good as real

My friends would have
Me linked anew
Me save and locked
My future secure

No more creation
Negate my joy
Negate my exuberance
No free will

To stand but still
Try and hold me
Try and bind me
To new horizons!


Hein S.

Night

All white grey
All black invisible

All eyes closed
All bodies rest

All zzzzzzzzz
All mmmmmm

All?

maybe not

All night long ;-))


Hein S.

The end

Oh yes at travel's end

All will be revealed

And no more be strange

The path of growth,

The milky way

And journey to byond

The path of death

Old star supernova

Scorches all in range

One option

And none between

Makes me of travel fond


Hein S.

Sweet soul

And the atheist said: God help me .....................

I want to pay no more !

This private hell has burned me enough

I want to be free of this torment

I will close my soul

And love no more

It is of no use

I have no more defences

Therefore let it burn

And enjoy te long agony

Until my meat be tender

And my soul is sweet

Hein S. Mefistofele
