Hi Teak,

 

Thank you again for a wonderful lesson in the power of words. Recently I have been asked by several organizations to write a book about the last seven years of my life. A ghost writer may be the answer to my prayers. One of the challenges I face is the lack of meaning within the limitations of the written word. How does an individual express the experience of a double rainbow appearing during a thunderstorm? Where is the proper placement within the confining structures of a paragraph to mention the power of God and the euphoric existence of love?

Stumbling blindly through a thesaurus I expand my high school vocabulary searching for words I have not yet written or experienced. Many times the laughter of doubt discourages my enchanted dreams to become who I have been birthed to be. An author of many best selling books. 

Teak, God has brought you into my life to teach me that words are as powerful as the shifting vibrations within an earthquake. You have taught me each sound uttered creates both the key and lock to universal doors of the divine. God has reminded me that there are men like you Teak that truly prove the power of the pen is greater then the weapons forged from wrought iron or steel.

Thank you for finding the courage to reveal your brilliant mind that is immersed in the wisdom of etymology.  Please forgive me if I have used the wrong words for I am still the learning student of your mastery.

 

Attached is a letter I wrote a few nights ago asking some interesting questions. I would love to read what contemplations you ponder while experiencing the alchemy purposely written to unlock the powers of the unconscious mind.

An early proof for me is what lies hidden in language . One day I discovered (without cover, to reveal) the true essence of the word Universe (see description below) and thus began my quest to explore word origins and my elation at their once intended wonder. Note how the ancients viewed the world, how spiritually they experienced it, how much more forgiving and beautiful their experience and how we have reduced the concepts of our religious and spiritual terms, made blessings into mundane and even sometimes punitive, fear, guilt-ridden and controlling concepts. One of these concepts is the concept of dogma. One day, I looked at the word dogma , and it seemed to be struggling to get my attention. I had never had this happen before. I looked at the word carefully and diligently, and I realized that dogma spelled backwards is “Am God” ; theref

The Words

  The Words By Teak Kilmer Circa 2008   I love the way the words are strung about the neck of my mind ─ like ladies in waiting that but moments before stood mute   “Did I hear you speak,” I seem to say. “Is it time to play?” Oh, words, oh lovely words ─ my gratitude, my dance   you made me love you and, indeed, I was born to love you thus in my heart I pledge to you forever … room and board

Why Frogs?

  Why Frogs? By Teak Kilmer August 3 rd 2002   Frogs don’t fly, don’t sing, don’t do much of anything ...   except to croak and peep and when scared, they leap sit on fronds on lilly ponds   but frogs don’t fly, don’t sing don’t do much of anything ...   save grow their webby toes sidelong snare yucky bugs with their tongue-tongs that are longer than most drinking songs and other frogs of whom they’re fond to they’ll snuggle-up and bond ...   but frogs don’t fly, don’t sing don’t do much of anything...   except do frog kicks to exercise deep in water, then they rise in purple, green and red some are even blonde it’s said   but frogs don’t fly, don’t sing don’t do much of anything ...   yet pose on covers of greeting cards for which on my visa I may charge and hereon write poems like this and wish you oodles of birthday bliss     HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Mabel     Grandpa Teak               I wrote this on the i
