See what it is looking at?*

See what it is looking at?*

What is this all about with no beginning or no end?

The continuance from before to do it again and again

No past that is to collect from, no future on the way

It is something that it is satisfied right where it stays

A form of consciousness that knows what is so clear

To be of ZEN* in the present, it was never outside of here

With this now in plain sight sight and perfect in its view

Do not look for it but see, it is all inside of you

It has been with you since the day your were conceived

But you followed a path of someone else in their own beliefs

As now you know what this is and to also live by

To turn what you are looking at around and see within your eyes

Sunny side up*

Sunny side up*

How far is the sun that is in the sky?

For it seems to be so near and very close by

Because it is amazing that it can give off so much light

That what is all around it is total darkness like the night

Powerful as it seems and in the heavens as it is direct

It knows how to make things happen, where it has to connect

I guess life would not last if it was not around

To me this is total love and spreads itself in the surround

So it seems that it will be right where it always is to be

It knows of a good thing, it is all alone and it is free

To enjoy its unconditional well being and what it is giving

That many things around it can enjoy in their living

The joy to give dimensions to those beyond its realm

But to keep itself regulated and not become overwhelmed

To walk throughout the day and to arise in the morn

It gives us all light and to always be warm...the Sun*

Delightful wake up call*

Delightful wake up call*

I awake up in the morning and relax where I sit

With the coffee brewing now, I know where I fit

In a deep state of solitude with stillness in my abode

Nothing that is in my awareness to make ever erode

Just the comfort of the moment and the smell of coffee in the air

Becoming of the present in delight and enjoying my own lair

Dom*Colucci 2013

Do not get all bottled up inside*

Do not get all bottled up inside*

In a world of confused perimeters that seem to be within

Chaos all around, to arrive at peace where does one begin?

Going back and forth, in one's "mind" to be relieved

The temptation becomes greater, in what has been perceived

Now it seems that one got into this and created such a mess

It is that very same one that can leave it and let all come to rest

Yes it is something that one made up on the way through life

Giving it attention and carrying all the burdens of strife

So that one sees now that it really was not there

The more that one walked away from this in becoming well aware

Something ever so close that becomes freedom and to let loose

Like how the bottle had its prisoner, that housed a long neck goose

But the goose was never the prisoner for it never was of this

The bottle was the illusion and did not ever exist

For in a way it was something that became of a doubt

And a personal prison in a ZEN* koan but that one is now out

Dom*Colucci 2013

Look not but see "still"*

Look not but see "still"*

There is a myth that I agree

It is in my belief that I do see

For what I see is a place so still

That reacts with my intention to my will

As this myth ends all what is in sight

There is no light of day or darkness in night

It just becomes of itself so crystal clear

And surrounds us always to be right here

This is a thing that has no surprise

For it is this that has opened my eyes

It is not external but I live here with it too

The essence of stillness, in my eyes it is in view

Dom*Colucci 2013

The center of beauty*

The center of beauty*

Look at the wonders of this place to be

To sit within nature and become its harmony

It has endured many trials from the weather

But it keeps itself in unity for it is all together

Bask in this sanctuary, become it and it will show

How you are the center of it all, perfection to also grow

Dom*Colucci 2013

Nothing is always open*

Nothing is always open*

All around us is a thing called space

It is the  essence of nothing that sits in place

A void that carries many things that are within

Really has no ending or a place to begin

But yet it is real that we cannot see and does exist

It is of its own unity in oneness and does not resist

Allowing so much in the Universe to be free

And give movement to all outlines as we can see

Dom*Colucci 2013

Roots of the truth*

Roots of the truth*

Do I ever falter in a life already foretold?

There was no past as the present unfolds

But to be here like an oak tree and its roots

More of the external dissolves, becoming my own truth

Because of this my eyes turn the other way to see

And notice from this truth, it all points back within me

Dom*Colucci 2013

Light of the day*

Light of the day*

Look, it is fresh and cottony in the sky

Enjoying each moment as it passes by

Pure in the heavens and the sun to come out

Not to be dismal and make one doubt

Moving so lightly and also carefree

Becoming joy of the day, so effortlessly

Dom*Colucci 2013

There is no weight on the Soul* ever*

There is no weight on the Soul* ever*

Where do problems come from, we ask

Is it something we do not see that are masked?

Could it be that we are simply not aware

Or is it in something we do not see as we look over there

But only whatever it is, we make a stone into a boulder

And never seem to see to get it off our shoulder

So then, there is something in this that is the key

And it is one that will make that one free

For when you give it a deeper look with trust

It is the Soul* that already knows the outcome is a must

So drop the situation from you within and let go

And your obstacles slip away and openness begins to show

Remember, it is the Soul* that was here before as it is now

And knows the Universe inside and out as it does allow

It is only an experience for it and you and time to move on

And see what is better in store for both, as now it has begun

Dom*Colucci 2013

How now, the TAO*

How now, the TAO*

It is what makes what is up that is down

You can see it on the horizon in the surround

It breaks up to make the picture so right

Level in the "mind's" eye, correct in one's sight

If there is any question on this and how

The only thing that could have done this was the TAO*

Dom*Colucci 2013

Nothing is "still" here*

Nothing is "still" here*

Where does stillness come from?

Emptiness that it is of being one

No place to go and nowhere to be

Seeing of this oneness it is totally free

Does not move at all in or out

Nothingness that is and that is what its all about

Dom*Colucci 2013

Here it comes again*

Here it comes again*

Here it comes once again

It is that place where it all began

The moment comes in and then it is done

Another one goes by and that one is gone

But it seems so peculiar to be in this place

That I am the only one that occupies this space

So it all returns back where it starts

There is nothing ever that pulls it apart

So in essence it makes itself exceptionally clear

That place we all come to is always right here

Dom*Colucci 2013

Gone in a breeze*

Gone in a breeze*

The seas are calm and the winds are fair

The sunset is subtle and light is the air

To venture onward, we go once again

It is a call with our sails into the wind

Though I must be no longer on these shores

But instead many miles away to see much more
