Blame me if you must
Truth will wait a bit longer
‘Til you are ready
Think about what you’ve done
And what’s right will speak to you
Regardless, I’m here
Supporting without judgement
Because I love you

Beauty In All Things (Haiku)
Beauty in all things
Is what I see through these eyes
Window with a view
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Temper Your Rage
Temper your rage toward others dear one
It blinds you and fogs the mirror.
Incapable of seeing yourself in others, hate festers,
Turning gangrenous, unable to heal.
What angers you is that which you cannot admit;
You are Siamese–connected by a tiny spark,
The spark of the soul, beyond our human frailties.
Anger, hate, race, creed, color melt away
When viewed in the brightness of Divine light.
Unconditional love takes up residence
Welcoming the essence of all into her warmth.
With this, differences can no longer survive…
And for once we can live in total peace.

Living By Ego (Senryu)
Living by ego
Stunts communion with the soul
The Divine awaits

Believe As You Will
“Believe as you will”, you say,
“I can respect that”, you say with a smile.
In your heart of hearts you are only tolerating,
You know they are wrong,
They don’t believe as you do so they must be wrong.
It matters not that we share this same walk together,
They have the same pains,
They have the same hopes,
They have the same dreams,
They fear,
They mourn loss,
They live and die just as you do,
But yet you self-righteously sit in judgement.
Is that what your God wants,
Is that what my God wants,
I seriously doubt it.
If you wish to be judge and jury,
Look no further than the heathen within
And you will find plenty of crimes to punish.

We Are One World (Haiku)
We are one world
Though we seek ways to divide
Is peace so painful

Clouds Layered, Thick, Dark (Tanka)
Clouds layered thick, dark
Framing nature’s ragged face
She weeps for the sun
They are but star-crossed lovers
Counting down to reunion
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Obligation (Acrostic)
One thing leads to another
Blinding our own needs.
Lingering wants and desires go unfulfilled.
Instead we tend to the needs of others,
Giving unselfishly of ourselves;
Agony and ecstasy its progeny.
These are our burdens,
Ignoring them is impossible.
Our sacred duty demands…
Never to shirk your responsibilities.
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Driven Wild By Love (Tanka)
Driven wild by love
That time only enhances
Addictive like drugs
I don’t want to be rehabbed
Let me die as a junkie
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~

Meditation–peace
Exploring the hidden self
That lives within me
Something I had never known
But glad I finally found
