Reflections of a Past Life

A vision or two
I had just yesterday,
A vision of empire
And small mice,
A hidden message
Of war and guilt
And sadness came too,
In this vision
Was very lost within,
A random trial
Came before me
And I seemed to fail,
Yes failed I did
Multiple times,
Again and again,
Yet I never gave up,
I stayed in the vision,
Trying another time
And seeking forgiveness,
For the vision
Was terror locked
Within me solid,
But I'm free of it now,
And goodness I seek,
For the rising waves
Are inside to shake,
Never give in to hate
Or greed, never let go
Of love and peace,
This is what I learned
Within my reflections,
Of a past life I knew
Was never going to be!

Mountain I Walked

A few years ago I felt an urge,
An urge to feel the wind above
The Earth and taste the sky
On my lips and tongue forever.

I had a calling to see the wind
Kiss my body in all seekful feeling,
For my thoughts seeked the wind
And all the winds called my name.

The ages seemed to pass for rocks
And the skies changeful ways,
But I remained immortal walking
On endless slopes for thinking.
