Smashed by Zander Ford

And then

 

Her magesty

Ripped me from my thoughts

And smashed me into her womb

Of love

 

With emerald green spires

pine boughs glimmering

In the late morning rays

Of God’s smile

Climbing golden staircases

Mountains made of alien

Light

 

Foreign

Yet so home

At once 

Thousand watt smile by Zander Ford

Youthful eyes

And a thousand watt smile

A gaze that could pierce

Any veil of mystery

With loving

With knowing


The knowledge that galaxies

Have in their spinning

Momentum

Carried upon its own accord


Centrifugal spirals

Of love folding

Upon itself


Embracing you

Embracing me

Embracing us

With its everything


A Thousand watt Smile

Glimmering

From deep within

Warm hands by Zander Ford

Yet,

I digress again

And again

 

On the

Surface of this infinite ocean of thought

A blue whale’s

Breech

Upon distant oceans of lost

And found

Time

 

Shimmering symbols

Dancing with the moon

Dancing with each other

Just Spinning tops on a glass table

Spinning tops dancing across time

 

Stories woven of quantum threads

Just tiny delicate stories

Woven upon silver threads

Of mystery

 

Made so real

When I

Reach out

And

Find

Your warm hand

In mine

Indigo Pearl Tears by Zander Ford

What indigo pearl tears have I

In these bellows lungs?

Are they not sweet rain

Formed lovingly

By my internal

Storm clouds?

Ready to nourish

The fertile soil

To make it black again

Fragrant with newness

So that beauty may flourish

In ever evolving

Landscapes

Of emerald green

Eye-splitting delight.

What mossy rocks

Are ready to shine

Dappled with dew

Welcoming this elixir

Of life?

And golden finches

Dancing

In my

Indigo pearl

Tears

And

What rivers

Thirst

For my contribution?

This steeply terrained

Carefully navigated

Tributary of love

Pulled effortlessly

By magnetic

Gravity

Captured forever... by Zander Ford

I want to wrap you up

In names and symbols

So my humanity

Can feel safe

 

I want to wrap you up

And capture your essence

Bottled in canvas jars

Forever

 

If only

Forever existed

Wisdom.... by Zander Ford

Wisdom….

Grandfatherly eyes

Shinning kindly

Behind curtain lids 

of restful peace

 

Wisdom...

The fractal patterns in Dhalia bloom

mycelium under the surface mushroom

 

Wisdom….

Absence of seeing

Yet knowing. 

 

Wisdom....

Come……

Take my hand

Let me show you

My human ways

To behold 

You

In your God-light

 

Wisdom...

Let go of what you think

You know.

And perceive

 

Wisdom....

That

which was named

now felt

Shattered Eyes by Zander Ford

Some days

When I wake

The beauty

Shatters my eyes

 

Crystal balls

Bursting into Ten Thousand

Fragments

Of ecstasy

 

And in my Blindness

I am overcome

With such

Indescribable

joy

 

To be given

The gift

Of perception

Rather than

Sight

 

today

is one

of

these days  

Little big Thought Monsters by Zander Ford

When I saw

Those thoughts

Surrounding this

Mystery

I got caught

In analysis

Instead of

Just letting them

Be

Oh, so peacefully.


Why did I hold them tight?

Wrestling badgers in the night?

Thought monsters

With fangs and slobber

Big Clubs

Waiting to clobber

How is it

I let them live?

What food did they eat

That I continued to give?

Your shores by Zander Ford

How i delight

In these

Insights

Of blue light

Radiant and pure

Shining from my Temple to your

Sparkling beach of glory

May we all be so fortunate to

Experience

Bliss

Crafted from infolding thoughtscapes

Of unimaginable beauty

This Dream by Zander Ford

I choose this dream

Yes

There are offers

To join others

 

I choose this dream

My own crafted reality

Dolphins swimming thru clouds

And my heart singing aloud

 

I choose this dream

You care to join?

I’d like your company

If you have the courage

 

To dream yours

Aligned with heart

And in accord

With your own part

 

In the cosmic dance

Of mystery and place

Where we can be cats

In the rat race

 

I choose this dream

Do you choose too?

Rooms without walls

Golden shimmering Light

A house suited just for you.

 

When I wake, every night

As I lay my head down to say

I love you

Pillow talk to this dream’s blessed space

I give thanks to God for its grace

 

I choose this dream

Thank you

For your part

May these symbols of transference

Delight

Your heart

Drunken Stardust by Zander Ford

The stardust in our eyes

Gets drunk

I’m sure

Because it throws itself

Wildly

Against our curtain lids

Bursting

To dance

To spin

And be spun

Twist turn and fumble

It’s way towards

Certain Ecstatic

Firefly blinking

Bliss

Upon the springtime of your grace by Zander Ford

Will this sweat

Purify my being

Watering thoughts

Like little seedlings?


Till


Days are young again

Rest in knowing

You are complete


For


Time still cycles

Singing her merry tune

Of this and that

If that and this


She swings from left to right

Holding night like a knife

Cutting this way and that

With a rat-a-tat-tat

Her blade is razor sharp

So be alert

And let your fingers guide her

Lest you become hurt


And


She will mend

All you think you’ve lost

Upon the springtime of your grace

Yes, you will see daylight

healing does take place

Upon moonbeams by Zander Ford

She walks on water

Resting hands gently

Upon moonbeams

Refracted

Shifting

Between here and there

Now and then

 

She splits atoms

Across chasms of consciousness

Letting Divine play

Upon her curious quirky brow

She let’s wonder

Take her away to distant worlds

Where matter and time

Are one

And thoughtscapes

Are the language of Gods

 

Curious architecture she is

Walking on liquid thought

The most fluid linguist I’ve met

Dipping toes

Into rippling pools of moonbeams

Dancing across her words

A painters brush

Stroking ecstasy

In symbols

Of light

Artist’s Hands by Zander Ford

An artist’s hands

Stained with wrinkles

Crafted with crafting

Her own memories

Etched upon molten clay

Artists veins

Popping blue

Eager to write

To run free

Amongst mysteries of

Knowing and unknowing


Artists hands

Delicate and fierce

Ravaging and subtle

Laser beams of love

Wrapping Light with Light

And time with stardust


Artists hands

Celebrating all that is

Was, and is on its way

Creating Beauty

And tearing it down

To craft

Again


Artists hands

Their story scripted

Engraved in cuts, scrapes

Palms leathery with delight

Fingertips sensitive rays

Of light


Artists hands

I hold in mine

Enjoying every pulsing

Slice

Of precious time

Challenging the Moon for her beauty by Zander Ford

Old woman died yesterday

Her silver hair done up in a bun

So pretty she was

Remembering her youth

Radiant and glorious

She looked back

At her time

Well squandered

Making forts in the forrest

Playing with friends

Singing to her babies

And then her baby’s babies

Playing ring around

She smiled ear to precious ear

An upward curve challenging the moon

For its beauty

She rests now

With that same smile

Drawn lovingly across her time-crafted face

In her final strong breaths

She gracefully remembered

Her golden life

Lovingly

And what is it to remember

She said

But to see the spring flowers

In my rose garden

Bloom

All year round

I dive deeply by Zander Ford

I dive deeply

into your heart

and come up

breathing

the love  

we shared  

alchemical thoughts

resting  

closely  

upon  

my own

breast

now.  

Expose Me by Zander Ford

Expose Me
     Take me to
                    your leader
And show them my
    Colors

I want to share
          With them
                          Vulnerability 

               Powerfully
     Aware
     Of
          Our mutual
                               presence

Expose me
                   Under your Floodlights
     Of thought

I’d like to show
    You
  Another way

To be present
         In harmony
                 With Dao

Expose me
        Strip me to my skin
Let me                    stand
                naked
      And so shall we begin

    I have learned
               To love
                     Myself 

Which means
I have learned
     To love
                               You

Expose me
      And let us play
             For when this Light
     Within
Shines

All is glorious


            Every
                 Single
                         Day

And, what if it were easy..... by Zander Ford

And
      What if
It were easy
        To feel these feet
To
      rest
Complete

What if
          breath
Full and golden
Came easily
                 As thought petals
       Unfolding

What if these souls
Combined
       to
Touch
            Earthly held
Embraced and loved

What then
           Would serve me well
Perhaps invest
In casting
                  Another spell?

Of joy and love
That
              others may feel
The same soul quenching
Embracing heel
                                      Touching earth
Her supporting all

And what if I
Could rest
            In this natural
Form of

                   light
Bones to skin
                  A puddle of delight

Oceanic thought forms
                  Just one more drop
Of consciousness
         Exploring itself 

And where words
              Fail
To meet you
                  To meet me
     There

       Breathe
Sense
            Be
Create
        Expand

   For all presence
Is
          Ultimately
   Fair

Did you Paint me? by Zander Ford

Did you paint me?
I thought you might have
Brought me to your doorstep
Glittering alms for poor souls

Did you paint me?
Welcoming my entrance into your life
A blessing in companionship
A humble powerful wife

Did you paint me?
Am I the colors you chose
Arranged in swirls and dashes
Satin covered clothes

Did you paint me?
Upon your mind’s canvas of light
Sparkling dancing
And holding you tight

Did you paint me?
Fierce ready and raw
A tiger in pillowed bed
That tender lover you saw

Did you paint me?
Sweet, fleshy and soft
Golden light intensely all around
Pleasure in union here and aloft

Did you paint
These dreams of yours
Or,
Did we paint them
Together
Upon our distant shores

And, Did I paint you
Upon my own brow
I think it’s possible
Somehow, somehow...
