A Flickering Candle©
A Flickering candle ......... standing alone,
upright, solitary against the wall
heralding warmth that welcomes
One and All
sending shadows, dancing
which entice
wrapping strands of Light
surrounding ones deeper soul
A Flickering candle ....... standing alone
encouraging , ...... welcoming
souls that hold
thoughts of Love
and Peace within
A flickering light bringing warmth
to One and All
A Flickering candle ......... standing alone
wax dripping ....... slowly down
forming puddles of hardened wax
to solid base
Giving warmth from a candle flame
to those who need the comfort
from within
A flickering candle ......... standing alone
being offered
by a gentle hand
offering the warmth
to One and All
within this space
So .... to all those
who note the flickering candle
within the nook
We welcome You
to the warmth within

Basking Brooks
New chapters everyday for your mind, your heart and most of all, your soul!! Saunter by the busy, flowing brook which gurgles like an infant, basking in the late afternoon sun. Feel the cold caress of green grasses, gently thawing under bare feet; their blade-arms sprinkled with faint dewdrops. Lie there, remain motionless and let everything from the inside as well as outside get washed away along with the flowing water. Basking Brooks aims at bequeathing the feel of soulful lightness that envelops the human heart from divine nature, by carefully wading through the readers' minds - scanning, deeply analysing and poking at difficult places to release the soul from cages within. The book is not like any other self-help book to give first-hand advice on how to live, love and survive. It will make you look deeper inside your being, inside those trenches which had not seen any light until then. You will come face to face with the broken, battered, scarred and eventually-healed soul of yours; the encounter that you may have been either faking to have had or avoiding all this while. You will be made to embrace yourself and, ultimately, feel light at heart. The book will become your best friend with whom you will have deep, meaningful midnight conversations - no hiding or running away performances. It will strip you down to your flesh and bones and beyond that, to your heart and naked mind too. It will sort you out by slowly allowing you to collapse on yourself and then build a 'new-you' out of the pieces, now refined and mystically pure; yes, similar to a phoenix, only here, it is not a myth.Complete
WITHIN
I wished to live my life as normally as possible (I even made sure I did) I told no one of what I was (Only family and friends knew) But, that's fine with me, maybe in someway only they should know. But, my secret must help others (You could almost say it has to) He stood before me....A mess in more ways than one. Lost and beyond repair. A soul of unrest. What help, could I be him? What help could I be to to any one? I have within me something unnatural.Complete
The Weird Insights of a Scobberlotcher
Seeing the light? Sounds alright. Scales falling from the eyes and all that. A little visit from a revelation. But sometimes the light of a revelation doesn't live up to its advance billing. Sometimes it's not an epiphany at all. The bright burst of an unexpected truth. No, sometimes it's just depressing. Really depressing. And persistent. Especially when the light just keeps flashing on and off. A red light. In a really weird place. "At first I didn't know what to think or do that involved being rational. I did have two distinct, initial emotional reactions, though. First, I was glad I was alone. Second, this seemed a frightening confirmation that I actually had gone mad." This is the story of a man who makes a shocking discovery. He's been afflicted by a very modern disease with no known cure. Until a fortuneteller comes along and changes his mind. Literally. With a large, heavy object . Full of cigarette butts.Complete
Hereafter, Yours
I looked outside; the sun had set but the light remained. That little moment when the light still covers the sky before night swallows it up, that tiny moment in time is when the sky truly looks majestic. I feel the same way, this little time before the night takes me away. Everything that begins will end somehow, somewhere... "Will my end be just an end?" He asked himself, Little did he know, his end was only the beginningComplete

The devil's mission
#1 spiritual powers 30/08/22 "......your soul? It's beautiful, unlike the ones I have seen here, it's quite unique" "But surrounded by dark mists, you see if you ask me I think it's really dark inside and it's gradually dying" he replied still looking straight lost in his thoughts as the moon rays continued to embrace his face. For a moment they both said nothing. It looked late, everywhere was cloudy and a gigantic moon covered half of the sky. Everywhere looked empty, dry, imaginary. They were both seated on a bench, One was dashingly handsome with nice features but still looked ordinary. Humanly. But the other one was different, with gigantic white wings covering her back, Beautiful? yes, amazingly beautiful, with her long red hair and beautiful long red gown. But possessed a very powerful dark Aura. "Let me save you" She faced him this time, no longer in her thoughts holding his rough hands gently. "Running to a pretty demon for help.... ehhh I'm not sure about that" he replied jokingly as he couldn't help but caress her soft cheeks. "I don't know if you are here to save me or destroy me, but I will trust you" "I'm not sure about that too Alex, but let's give it a try" He nodded then disappeared into thin air. "Trust?" She couldn't help but mumble to herself, as tears could be seen slowly sliding down her cheeks, And her wings gradually changing to its original color, Black. Then he woke up. It was just a dream. #1 spiritual powers 30/08/22.Complete
