To One and All... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The poems in the following * POEMS03.HTM * file have been arranged in the order they have been written. The depth and nature of the poems therefore indicate the changes the author experienced during the time they were produced. There are more than 540 poems and the quality between the first ones and the last ones is remarkable! Many of the poems practically wrote themselves and all I had to do was sit still long enough for them to come through. At the time I was totally amazed where they all came from. Often I thought that I had become that good all of a sudden. This naturally is not so, for all I did was function as an instrument or channel of the Soul I really am. I hope that many of these poems speak to the Soul you are, and if so; they really come from you! The poems in all their "simplicity and profoundness" form a course in metaphysics just by themselves. It is possible therefore to go through them one by one, and learn more than by reading a stack of books. The poems in these files are aspects of my Higher Self and with great pleasure do I hereby dedicate them: - To the World of Man and his Infinite Endeavours - Only because of the steady performance of my Benefactors have my poems been realized. Humbly I acknowledge the great changes and growth that took place within me in the years 1979 to 1984. Sincerely yours, Gerardus Everardus Tros -=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=- AS A SPIRIT DIVINE ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On my journey through Space there is no about face There is no beginning... there is no end Forever forwards in an infinite trend. There is no Distance... nor Time I could not call mine Because before I was I My Home was the Sky. Yet in Person and Mind I was of a similar kind With no Body... yet Soul I was part of the Whole. Looking back on it all My remembrance is but small But I definitely know I was part Spirit... part Glow. Yet now in a Body of Flesh I can look at it fresh And as far as I can see I am part God... and part me. Because my Body... Mind... and Eternal Soul Make-up One Entity... One Perfect Whole Still flying through Space Like my Kind... like my Race. Of a highly specialized kind Is my Identity and my Mind Made up of Spirit and Soul It is but a Part.... yet it is Whole. Outside my Body is my Spirit and Mind Influenced by Others... of every Kind By Divine Inspiration and Infinite Glow Enlightened in Spirit... forever I'll grow. No way to return... no way to retrace For now.... I'm of the Human Race Destined to use this Material Plane For Spiritual Growth and Useful Gain. In my body... this Space-suit... from the time of my Birth I will live... I will die... on this Planet called Earth To manifest Life... in God's Creation Sublime And return to myself... as a Spirit Divine. -=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=- 03044-1979/80 OF IMMEASURABLE GRACE ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For every blade of grass I see For every flower... for every tree I look up... into the Sky so Blue And wonder... who am I... and who are YOU? Oh God... make me... as a Member of your Race by your slightest touch... of Immeasurable Grace. -=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=- 03045-1979/80 FOR YOU TO ENJOY ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The greatest Importance... in Life my Friends are the proper actions... before it ends. Because after the transition to the Beyond from here you have arrived at a lonely pier. Your do's and don't's from the life just past will speak for you... and are weighed at last. So... never ever... do ever forget that life as it should be... is sweetness and sweat. Just make certain... that while you are here you come loaded with Gold at the final pier. And only with Gold... that you know how to employ can you build a Garden... for you to enjoy. (Gold is knowing how to use your Mind) -=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=- 03046-1979/80 IN LIGHT AND LOVE DO WE EXCEL ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When I do pass... and seemingly die just gently pause... but do not cry. For this my Body... that lies so still was but the shell of my living will. I died but live... and I'm still me through death... I'm born... completely free. My Soul... my Spirit... is still with you with God and Friends I live... I be and do. And when this phase will come for you the rewards deserved are coming true. For in this Plane... where Spirits dwell In Light and Love ... do we excel. -=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=- 03047-1979/80 FOR TIME TO LAST ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Was I a poet once before? Did I indeed write score by score? Where was I... what was my name? Was I healthy... was I lame? Was I just I... was I but me? Am I a person... we should call 'we'? Well...? Whatever I was... in lives just past... I am I now... for time to last. -=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=- 03048-1979/80 OF YOUR KINGDOM SUBLIME ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Every Life in this material Plane should be lived to make it a Gain. A Gain to grow in Spirit and Soul fulfilling its Purpose... in approaching the Goal. The Goal to become 'one' with the Cosmic Power A Desire to be... like an unfolding Flower. Convinced in Knowledge from the Light Above That of the virtues of Man... the Greatest is Love. For every man with his Soul Divine will live forever by Cosmic Design. And in this World... in this material Plane The purpose of Living... is Spiritual Gain. Through infinite Love and immeasurable Grace the Universe created every Race. And gave us the Chance to become 'one' with IT by dedicating our Lives... bit by bit. Oh... Infinite Wisdom... Infinite Glow Teach us your Love... and make it grow. Teach us your Knowledge with patience of Time And make us your Servants... of your Kingdom-Sublime. -=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=- 03049-1979/80 AND SHARING OF BLISS ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Now that my Life flows with a faster pace And there still is not a day I want to retrace And not a moment I want to repeat or retain Being afraid to lose momentum or gain And older in years... and trying so many a probe I now understand... the purpose on this globe. It is so simple... and yet my efforts so small Although I give it my Life... my best... my all. So to you then my Friends... about to perceive I dedicate this Poem to make you believe That my trials... tribulations and adversity Formed the stepping stones to my sincerity Yet all my efforts are so tiny... so very little So fragile... so easily dented... so very brittle. While the Purpose my Friends... of Life as it is is Giving... is Loving... and Sharing of Bliss. -=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=- 03050-1979/80 FAITH ~~~~~ Eternity is not any greater... than the thought that can think of it. And yet this thought... is infinite in and by itself And Eternal in Time and Space. For it travels out to the Stars and back in the wink of an eye. To return to its producer. Since eternal times each thought is infinite in Time and Space. While the Infinity of Time and Space is but a thought. A thought of the Master Thinker. The Master Thinker... has within itself the Universe of Thought. For IT is IT. IT...created... ALL THAT IS. Including thinkers like you and I. How great IT is... we cannot think of. For we only have... mortal comprehension. Thouhgts like these.... produce and are... FAITH. -=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=- 03051-1979/80 WHO is WHO ~~~~~~~~~~~~ People seem to think that the world is theirs. They act as if they own it. But in reality.... they are but occupants. Temporarily. We are on this world in companionship with the animals the forests and flowers. And although people act as if they own the world they still pay rent. The rent they pay is evident in two ways... in either Sorrow and Misery or in Recognition and Prayer. Most do not know.... that they have a choice. The ones who pay in Sorrow and Misery are the ones who think that they own the world. The ones who pay in Recognition and prayer are the ones who do not want it. They know that the world... belongs to the Cosmic Universe. They know.... WHO is WHO. -=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=- 03052-1979/80 THINK! LOVE! INTUIT! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Talking sometimes confuses but intuition never does. It explains. Reading is listening without hearing. While looking is not seeing. Seeing is not even believing. Believing is... what we think to be true. It's only our reality. And only one of many realities. All we see and all we touch is only relatively real. Or an illusion. And so are we. We are made that way on purpose. We are atoms that speak and think by means of Spirit. Part of Cosmic One. Knowing is.... to be conscious of Consciousness. All of us... know very little. Not even ourselves. To learn to be... conscious of Consciousness start by being aware. THINK! LOVE! INTUIT! -=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=- 03053-1979/80 WHY YOU... ARE YOU AGAIN ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Your memory of Life and Living is what you remember after leaving. And while you rest upon the Sky you become aware. You'll become aware... what it was you did... and didn't do. And then you will understand... why you were you. You will see then... that all of it was good. Good for Learning. And good for you. And after an eternal rest... upon the Memory of God You'll live again. To try all over again. With a fresh outlook. You will do this... over and over again. Until you know... and understand... why You... are You again. -=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=- 03054-1979/80 BUT NEVER DIES ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Truth... people never like to hear. They would rather hear what they like. And to live... in continual self-deception... is what they like best. They are gullible. For one big lie repeated repeatedly gives them faith. And finally... they think it to be true. Being entertained... is their main purpose. They have become the clowns. Materialism is their God. Commercials their bodily needs. And angel-cake their helpers. They read filth. And revel. Thinking is their enemy... and Destiny their curse. Their Soul is dying... while their bodies pray for dirt. Not even their God... can save them. The Light that is... within them all... is suffering. But never dies. -=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=- 03055-1979/80 BY LIVING ~~~~~~~~~ Man will never know... "The Ultimate Truth" unless he becomes "The Ultimate Being". To become The Ultimate Being Man has to become the "All Knowing". "All Knowing" is Total Consciousness. Total Consciousness is attained by Self-Knowledge. Total Self-Knowledge is learned in stages. The stages of Life and Death... repeated many times. Man will never know... "The Ultimate Truth" and become "The Ultimate Being" as a Human Being. He has to become more. He has to become Divine. Man as a Human Being... can only have 'opinions'. True 'opinions' are obtained by thinking and intuition. All People... at all times... are in the process of learning this more and more. BY LIVING. -=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=- 03056-1979/80 AND MANY OTHERS ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Your 'destiny' is your CREATION. You create it by - Your Actions and Thoughts. - Your Emotions and Behaviour. - Your Character and Attitude. - Your Self-Control and Self-Knowledge. Your 'destiny' is the Total Sum of your deeds. You - as of now - are the result of what you ever have been. In this life or other lives. Even your physical shape... form... constitution or heredity is dependent on you. You cannot escape ever. The 'fate' you meet... is created by YOU. You can however 'change' or determine... your 'destiny' in the future. By planning now... for future lives. By adjusting - Your Actions and Thoughts. - Your Emotions and Behaviour. - Your Character and Attitude. - Your Self-Control and Self-Knowledge. Life is... a pay and learn program. And nothing is impossible. BUDDHA DID IT. JESUS DID IT. AND MANY OTHERS. -=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=- 03057-1979/80 THE LIGHT OF BIRTH ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Neither my Hands... nor my Mind... can grasp the Immensity of the Universe. And yet my Thoughts there wander. Into infinite Infinity and return before I know it. Telling me... that although I cannot grasp this tremendous Space it is all within me as much as I am within it. And all I see outside of me... and around me seems to be unfolding from the inside out bursting forth from the Crevasses of my Mind that is Timeless and all Space embracing. For I am part of 'All That Is' and am 'All That Is' and ever will be. For all I see... and am... is Consciousness. Hidden in but Earth I call my Body. That's why my Freedom is my Confinement. For I am trapped by being conscious of being Man. While the Mystery of Space and 'All That Is' is no greater than the puzzle I am. Hunkering to know my God like an unborn Babe longs for the Light of Birth. -=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=- 03058-1979/80 BECAUSE OF YOU AND ME ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ There are no words to describe the Light that is invisible but reflects from your Face and shows me Your Inner Smile. Powered by Sunlight yet softer than the Moon. That's why I thus write of the Beauty I see of the Innermost Image of your Soul that speaks to me. With Words... that are inaudibly expressed and are shown in Feelings. Feelings of Life in Mirrors of Understanding and Love by Colours of Light that reflect... You to ME... so clearly. I do not know... I think... I love you. Love you for what you are and are not. I see in you... the reflection of me. In colours transparent that shine forth from you and say... that you and I are really One but only different. Really One... but only different in this our Earth-Time that really is not and yet is... Because of You and Me. -=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=- 03059-1979/80 NUCLEAR PIT ~~~~~~~~~~~ The High Priests of Science and the Authorities that know Close their Mind in Confusion at the sight of an UFO. Living Creatures... roaming the Sky in Multi-Form and Glowing Eye Intelligent Beings on a Higher Plane How absolutely absurd How insultingly insane. There is no Life... in Sky or Space For we.... here on Earth are the smartest Race. How dare you to call our attention to it For we only have time for a Nuclear Pit. -=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=- 03060-1979/80 THE SUPREME IN IGNORANCE ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I... yes I... I am the most beautiful Flower And when I need Sunshine... I demand And when I need Rain... I have it And when I need Shelter... I stop the Wind. And when I bloom... the World is in awe. For I am... the most beautiful Flower. And at Night... when I dream I dream about the growth around me. And then... I wallow in Superiority... and scorn the dirt. And forever shall be damned... this grass. This eternal growth around me... that dares to entangle my roots. And when the Sun arises in the morning... I am the one that shines. For my Colours are... the Light in Brilliance. And when I say so... the Sun hides its Face... behind my Rain. For I... I am the most beautiful Flower... and the Supreme in Ignorance. -=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=- 03061-1979/80 NOT JUST BY TWO ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Where are the Moments that we shared? Where are the Minutes that we cared? Where is the Touch of your Hand to mine? Where did we leave our Feelings Divine? Contented though... with the Sharing of Thought Is what those Moments... for us did wrought. Never ever though... my Love... my Serene will we forget these times so keen. Forwards... ever with no return with Glances back that made us learn that Love and Kindness and Patience too can be shared by all... not just by two. -=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=- 03062-1979/80 UNTIL BEYOND ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Since Words are but a useless token we meet and none is spoken. Our Glances... connecting Eye to Eye... carry the Silence of the Sky. Our Thoughts do meet and we sustain the Wisdom and the Inner Pain of Meetings in the Inner Shade with Thoughts in Time we can't evade. No Light will ever... show the Pain born out of Love so quite insane. And why can't this silent... and secret Bond not be consumed until Beyond? -=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=- 03063-1979/80
