Dewin’s About Dewin

Alchemy Mandela

~ Welcome ~

~

Welcome one and all, all and one, to Dewin’s humble tumbledown.

Set up high on a Welsh mountain Bryn where he sits penning poems.

By day a slave to wage and mediocrity, by night a Wizard with complexity,

With panache, even a dash of brash to cut the gib of his billowing sail!

His Wizard a snail, a tramp, a trail, a shadow ghosting the proverbial veil,

Hanging thinly pale between this world and next.

~

Why rest with dis-ease?

 When to wander has pleased, always questing the Fabled Grail

Never desisting ever persisting, on a pathway walked musing, meandering,

Gerrymandering boundaries on the edge of time, for the Heart of My Love,

My Red Goddess Divine, upon whose Star I build my shrine,

In the Holy of Holy’s, her Venusian diamond mine.

~*~

Milestones and Herms, signposting frippery

Lodestones and Fawns, Folklore mystery.

Seeing Stones and Spells, tools of the trade

Scrying Balls and Bells, beautifully made.

Feathers and Berries, old Druidic glade,

Damsels and Fairies, tussled golden braid.

Underworld and Furies, dark paths laid,

Off-world and Alien, spaceflight, star-spun,

 Gods and Goddesses, Flaming Hearts, the Sun,

All is here for you to read: your journey’s just begun…

“May the whizz of the Wizard alwayz be wiz you!”

    • Hi Simon.

      You’re most welcome. I found ‘something’ very genuine on a website, a sense of honesty and truth, and such a blessing needs praising, and the messenger acknowledging and broadcasting further.

      I’ll be visiting your sight more frequently now that I know it’s there and no doubt I’ll always find reward and inspiration to take away with me.

      Thank you for your generous comments.

  1. I see you have found my lovely friend Simon!!!!!!!!!!! 🙂 Yes, I am in very good company. Thank you so much for visiting my site, and leaving such heartfelt and thought-provoking comments. I was speechless earlier, and honestly, I still am. You have served as a big and wonderful sign from God, which has left me in wonder and contemplation all day. I’ve had a very emotional week and I have been pondering about life — here and beyond this plane — and your comments came blowing in like a flower in the wind! I love how we are all connected and able to “hear” when we are silent. I am so grateful for the silence. And the humbling experience of emotions to bring me to a point where all I want to do is shut up. Lol! When my head is not so far gone I will reply to your comments. Thank you new friend. Namaste, Trina

    • Hi Trina,

      Actually it was Simon that found me! I found his site revealed the man behind the words, and he’s a great guy. Through Simon I found you, and in so doing found a special place to rest a while. Your comments are very touching, thank you (!) My replies will always be written with the same good faith, truthfulness and honest intention, and I shall continue to mean every word. You have a beautiful soul, a wonderfully honest voice in your writing, and I think you see further and feel more deeply than perhaps you know.

      Namaste is such a beautiful word to define the connections we make with certain people, or rather the connections to people that we were meant to come to know…I don’t believe it could be otherwise: you are right to believe in the silent voice that unites disparate souls. You’re site has already offered this Nomadic traveller in life a wonderful refuge and an enlightening source of nourishment from which to dine. The series of Love Letter’s posts are quite something, very special in fact, and I’ve no doubt I shall read many of them several times over.

      I’m so sorry to hear your week has brought you emotional discomfort. I’ll email you a small gift in the hopes that it’ll provide a little distraction from your thoughts. Hope you like it 🙂

      Namaste new friend.

    Thank you for your warm generosity and friendship, and for your words of encouragement. I really am quite touched and (for once!) feel a little lost for words… 🙂

    • Hey Barbara,

      These are wise words for sure. Alchemy is indeed the true essence at the heart of all life, the perpetual cosmic chemistry of flowing matter and the fundamental mystery that is the eternal evolution and transformation of ourselves.

      Namaste

      DN – 09/05/2014

      • and at this very moment humankind are transforming… the flowing light is absorbing the dark and dense physical bodies… creating a new light biology for DivineHumanBeings to begin a new and magnificent adventure… (which I have written about in my latest blog)… Cheers Dewin…

        • Hey Barbara,

          In the words of R.W Emerson…’Immortality will come to such as are fit for it; and he/she who would be a great soul in the future must be a great soul now.’

          Thank you for your comment. I hope to be visiting the sunny shores of your Blog shortly. Take care in all ways always.

    • Hey Sindy,

      2014! Was it really that long ago?
      When a Blue Butterfly landed to softly say ‘hello?’
      Share a waving flutter, let her inking tube flow,
      Leaving four words so all would know,
      Triple-S came by, ‘Oh my! that’s fly!”
      ~
      So many months have come and gone,
      Whilst you and I got ‘our Alchemy on,’
      And remembered what it was we always had to do,
      Before end of days ghost-riding through,
      Upon this stage of life, with yours cast blue,
      Unfolding nicely I hope, with success soon due.
      Tis your last year to show, barely one stride to go,
      Free to then teach, to guide and transform,
      From fresh faced adolescents, not long born,
      Into independently minded discerning souls,
      With wishes and dreams and future goals.
      ~
      I’ve been busy walking pavements and paths and passageways,
      Tracks and roads and endless highways, bye-ways and bridleways and
      Five-ways beyond alleyways, of which one way was fun,
      A narrow gauge corridor, ending in my new inking-gun,
      For another journey with Merlin, one barely begun.
      But I won’t tell you any more, it’d only bore, and
      I wouldn’t want to disturb your academic flow.
      For me all is perfectly fly, I’ve my eyes set forward, my head held high,
      I’ve an open road an open sky, a tramp’s tender soul that’ll never die,
      Never fade, never fall, never crass, never cry,
      Never weep with woe, never doubt or sigh.
      Tis a fine heart, courageous, brave and strong,
      A heart endeavouring to always go on,
      A heart beating in time with a Goddesses drum.
      She a Venusian Bright Star who gets ‘my Alchemy on!”
      ~*~

      Good Luck with your final year SS.

              I sit to reflect in the Looking-Glass upon Dewin’s castle wall,
              And ask for words to come to me and help stir my will.
              It’s not that words cease to flow, or have abandoned me in any way,
              It’s just that those words have become forgiving words, less easier to now say.
              ~*~

              Triple S, you were always as delicious as Kali!

              The Blue Angel who first inspired a love of poetry:
              My first word, first line, first stanza, all for you.

              touching infinite blue.
              Soaring forever in
              Sky blue hue,
              Hummingbird within your feather
              ~
              No other Blue,
              Blue like you.
              No other feather.
              Blushes like you,
              Tinted with rouge Blue hue..
              Is my sweet memory of you.

  3. Hey Sue,

    Thanks for dropping by, I appreciate the kind gesture, and hope that 2015 has brought blessings to your door in ways that continue to make you shine. My world as you say is like a house made of leaves built on sand, precariously balanced, and at the mercy of the changing weather. Looking forward to 2016 already.

    Happy blogging Sue! Take care and God-speed in all that you do 🙂

  4. Hi Dewin Nefol!
    Just stopping by to say Hi
    I hope all is well with you
    Your lyrical replies continue to amaze me ❤
    That's a gift in it self
    You shouldn't lose it

    Happy Valentines
    It's almost here 🙂

    • Hey Deanne,

      The lateness of my reply does not detract from the kindness in your words, nor the manner in which it is accepted, with a warm smile of gratitude. Thank you 🙂

      I think the gift of words is far better suited to your ownership and celebration than it is mine to awkwardly misplace and mismanage. Your blog is an unfastened, intimate fusion of water and fire that flows with the inspired inertia of a poet already predisposed to the impetus of im-pressing words with considered meaning.

      Thank you for considered words. Lovely to have you stop by.

  5. Dewin! I have been looking for you, as funny as that sounds! That is synchronicity, at it’s finest. I am so glad you heard my call. I tried contacting you via Google, the chat thing we used to talk with. How can we keep in touch?

    Namaste,
    T.O.

  6. Hey Trina,

    Well you found me! Or did I hear your call? Either way it’s wonderful to have you back on WP and even better to have you stop by and say ‘hello’! 🙂

    It goes without saying that I hope all is well and life is treating you with kindness and affection. I am sure we’ll manage to get in touch somehow….indeed, the Google Chat thing is still available so perhaps we’ll catch up that way again soon enough. I’ve no doubt you have much to tell and discuss regarding your months away in the big smoke, and all manner of inspired stories to share as well. I’ll look forward to hearing all about the big adventure, and in the meantime I’ll also look forward to new material for more great posts on your Blog.

    Thanks for dropping by and liking Golden Pathway. Catch up soon 🙂

    • Hey Jithin,

      Did I miss the drum roll lol 🙂 Congratulations! Fantastic achievement, and the perfect way to celebrate your talent 🙂 Such inspiration must surely set you up nicely for the next publication, which I imagine is being penned as we chat here lol You have to keep the momentum flying!

      It’s always been a great pleasure to visit and read your Blog Jithin, I’ve enjoy the diversity and the breadth of your observational skill. Sunsets, sunrises, street life, townships, people…the photographic stories have captured the essence of your destinations and always leave a permanent impression with me. Your commentary is personal, clearly defined, and succinct, and adds a spice of life to the mysteries and reflective quality of your photography. Every visit is an education that provides a fascinating insight into corners of this beautiful world that I’d not have opportunity to visit. Judging by the many comments you receive, your readership is supportive and wholly encouraging, and you must find great strength and inspiration in that as well. There is of course one special destination that you described that still has me captivated…you know which this is of course…and if ever I visit, i’ll be absolutely certain to be in touch. 🙂

      I wish you every wonderful success with the publication, and further, continued success through your Blog and travels. Excellent achievement, thoroughly deserved, well done!

      🙂 Thank you. Your comment arrived just when it should and I’m grateful for the inspiration it gave. My eagerness to finish, and your anticipation to read the poem’s next instalment, are motivational thoughts and had me press on with the saga, thank you. Act 3 of Copper Door – Stitch, Stash, and Sow to follow soon. Please keep fingers crossed. 🙂

      Hoping all is swell in the Deville well of wonder and poetic life. Take care, enjoy the weekend.

  10. Lovely concept, the alchemist!
    The warm appreciation bountifully expressed on your page speaks volumes about you.
    I’m glad I landed here.
    Keep up the good work.

  11. Hey Teecee,

    Welcome to Dewin’s. It’s always a pleasure to meet a new friend, I trust all is well 🙂

    Your comment is very generous kind and considerate, thank you. I must say having read your Gravatar profile Teecee it would seem we both share the same high regard for our friendships as much we do sharing the company of friendly strangers. WP is a wonderfully spirited community and through it I have met many beautiful people and hope to meet many more. I am happy to have met you, thank you 🙂

    ‘Keep up the good work’ – again, thank you, I shall endeavour to do my best, and to do it wearing a smile as often as possible 🙂

    I’d never really considered The Alchemist being a concept or a theme for the Blog per se although it is an interesting observation and one to get me thinking. I didn’t have a conscious plan for the Blog and nor had I given it any forethought before setting it up, it just sort of put itself together and materialised out of nowhere overnight…like magic! 😉

    ‘I’m glad I landed here’ – thank you, another interesting phrase: I also say something similar when pausing to perch on a Blog site to catch my breath: evermore so when that Blog site is overseas and the virtual flight there and back tiring lol 🙂

    Thank you for stopping to take a perch. Good to meet you Teecee. Have a great week, take care.

    • Good morning Sue 🙂

      How are you? Well I hope and flourishing: another beautiful warm bright and sunny day. It’s wonderful to see Ra out and about romancing Nut in the mid-morning sun. I thought it were just mad dogs and Englishmen that did that sort of thing, but no, how wrong I am lol 🙂

      Kind generous and inspiring as always in your comments dear Sue, I am pleased indeed you enjoyed the update on About. I thought it timely that I at least added something to fill the space here, it was a rather large and empty void and becoming an embarrassment of sorts. Your approval of the update is most welcome. Thank you.

      Wishing you a wonderful day. Take care in all ways always.

          I try to tell warming stories for warm folk who share their warmth with me when they take time to come and visit chez Dewin 🙂 That seems a fair and reasonable exchange.

          Thank you, the week is improving daily on the day before. Yesterday was a really good day – thanking you for sharing a little of it – and the new year will progress onwards and upwards from there on in. What will be, will be, etc, etc… 🙂

          Until next time dear Sue, take care, be good, look out for Mr Mole, and enjoy your evening 6-string Sue 😉

  12. Beautiful poem, Dewin, that will capture the hearts and imaginations of all who stumble across your blog, whether intentionally or by chance. No doubt they will read on and explore other offerings you have posted here, and they will be richly rewarded, charmed and enchanted for doing so. Your verses tell wonderful tales 🙂

    • Good evening Sammi 🙂

      Hoping you are well and your new week already presenting opportunity and abundant blessings.

      Thank you for the sincerity of your comment Sammi: your dizzy dash of pixie-dust leaves me enchanted and always a little charmed 🙂 I’m grateful for your perspective and generous endorsement 🙂 Very pleased of course to read of your enjoyment of the poems, to know they lead to curiosity or interest enough to dig a little further, rummage a little deeper, and explore a little more. The About has taken 3, maybe 4 years to complete, perhaps I needed that time to determine my focus and declare each as both interest and passion here. In doing so, I find my focus sharpened and my intentions becoming more solidified and concrete. From what I have written, it appears storytelling, poetry, and magic realms beyond the beyond offer infinite destinations for finite words to relentlessly journey towards.

      Thank you again SC for kind regards, for stopping by, for fluttering your witches wand, for softly saying ‘hi’ 🙂

      How delightful to have a new friend wander by and share a little shine from their radiant flower. A warm gentle glow now infuses these cool walls of stone and a growing sense of peace and inner stillness prevails in Castle Deeply Dewin. Thank you for bringing serenity with you 🙂

      Thank you also for kind words and generosity in your comment. I am always pleased to receive feedback and individual response and wholly encouraged when the work is enjoyed by others. You ask is it wizardry or poetry? I imagine it could be both when Merlin writes it, but it’s little more than blotted scrawl when I do 🙂 O to be a wizard like he! Maybe one day.

      I hope you may call again Jina, perhaps when next your feet carry you this far from your front door on an adventure. You’ll always be most welcome. Should you wish you leave one of your flowers with others in the vase upon the mantle, please do so, your petals add a unique splash of colour to the Great Hall. Thank you.

      Take care of you and one and all in your life in all ways always. Brightest blessings for the week ahead.

          You’ll be most welcome to wonder here whenever the mood takes you Jina. Merlin’s owl, Archimedes and I will be only to pleased to show you around the Castle and wonder the grounds.

  13. Dear Dewin, I hope this finds you well my friend..
    I saw your comment, and went back to your last post, I had not seen your last reply to me there or I would have responded.. And your comments on that post are now closed.. But there are many gremlins at work with me and comments.. I leave them and others never see them either. So there are some broken wires within WP I feel.. lol.. And others reply to me and I never see them unless I actually revisit the post again in person.
    I trust Autumn is suiting you as it blows the cobwebs, The leaves have been spectacular in their colours around and about here this Autumn.
    I took a small WP break… we all need that, to get away from technology and back into creation..
    Wishing you well as the month of November speeds further into December.. Time is but an illusion.. but it has never flown so fast..
    Take care Dewin..
    Blessings your way..
    Sue 🙂

    • Namaste Sue, how are you? 🙂

      Delighted as always to have you visit: better still knowing all is well up North. Your break from WP was duly noted…in fact I wondered if you’d decided to give hibernation a go this year and had got your head down early! lol 😀 I trust your time away was fruitful, fulfilling and personally rewarding.

      It sometimes feels like Autumn springs forth all of a sudden, as if out of nowhere, and lasts for just a few weeks before being consumed by Winter. I’m sure there have been years when I’ve completely missed this season altogether such is the pace with which it comes and goes! But yes, certainly nature has been as flamboyant as ever and dressed herself in a fantastic array of flourishing, flashing colours. Truly beautiful.

      I imagine most of us in the UK have already squeezed into thick coats, scarves and mittens, if not also woolly hats as well. Frosty mornings are not that far off but as yet I’ve not heard mention of snow…perhaps it’ll arrive in time for Christmas and then disappear by the end of Boxing Day!

      Stay warm, stay well, keep smiling! Thanks for popping-by.

  14. Namaste Liz, how are you? 🙂

    A delight to have you stop-by Castle Deeply Dewin…I trust the journey across the great puddle was without incident or toil. Tis always a pleasure to meet a fellow-blogger, greet an acquaintance, and receive a new friend. You are always welcome. Namaste 🙂

    Thank you for your warm comment: tis much needed during a Welsh winter that often lingers until mid-year! lol 🙂 In truth it is often the people we meet along life’s path whose amiable company and good-nature adds warmth to our life. Thank you for the light of your flame.

    I had a little peek at your blog and took great delight in discovering your love for words: they seem drawn to you in ways that both fascinate and amuse me still: your life is no doubt made richer by their presence.

    Enjoy a wonderful New Year’s Eve…best wishes in all ways for success in 2019.

    • I’m fine, thank you! Here in New Hampshire, we’re poised to enter the worst of our winter weather. Yes, indeed, my life has been enriched by words. I remember when I was very little, I thought that only grown-ups knew how to read because it was such an unimaginably wondrous thing. My ambition in life was to learn how to read. I thought that once I did, the entire world would be open to me. I still feel the same way.

      • Namaste Liz 🙂

        Words are very precious – gifts from the stars – and I do believe we have a duty of care to extend to them all. When cherished and used with sincerity to express the wonder of life in all its myriad forms, they have the power to move mountains and elevate one’s spirit beyond-the-beyond, or perhaps even further beyond that.

        You write and express yourself with aplomb Liz: that ambition of yours to learn to read has paid-out in dividends and extended itself most readily into your writing. I like the sense of wondrous innocence in your childhood memory – an ambition to learn to read was undoubtedly a defining moment in your life. As a child my enjoyment of reading centred on seeking knowledge – spending endless hours engrossed in encyclopaedias and dictionaries attempting to learn more about the world in which I lived. It never occurred to me that knowledge and wisdom are not the same thing. nor indeed that life – in its humanistic sense – doesn’t operate on a rational basis: that acquisition of knowledge and its application in the real world are not always comfortable bedfellows….but I think this a lesson we all have to learn along the way.

        It’s been fun to sit and chat for a while. I’ll leave you to baton-down the hatches and wrap-up warm against the onset of that New Hampshire winter. I hope it won’t impinge on opportunity for forays into Nature.

        Until next time…

        Namaste 🙂

  15. Belated Happy Birthday dear friend. If those words ring shallow to your eyes, I understand, but when I think of you, I always stop and send you love & happy wishes, I hope you are still writing, doing art, and being brilliant. I was just thinking of you.

    • Hey Sindy, how are you? Long time no hear.

      That’s nice of you to remember, thank you. Your sentiment is most kind.

      All is well thank you – in fact in many ways it couldn’t be better: my days are filled with wonder and wandering, my nights complete with happiness and joy whilst in-between both I find a little time to do some writing and artwork as well. Life is good thank you, as I hope it is for you and yours as well. As I recall this time of year and the run-up to Halloween, if not Halloween itself, is one of your favourite seasons: no doubt you’ll be celebrating Samhain in style as much as you will be your birthday.

      I hope Teaching is still pleasing and you progressing on all fronts in all ways.

      Thank you for stopping-by, have a great week. Take care of one and all,

      Live in Love, Go in Peace,

      • Hey friend. Yes, all is well, I do love my job and my school. I am sort of more Dia des los mortes, now lol, I am so happy to hear that you are happy and thriving. Sorry that I have neglected our friendship.
        Much Love ❤

  16. Hey Sindy,

    You always thought you were destined to teach and now that you are it’s little wonder to hear you are making a success of it. Doing what you love to do in life is wholly fulfilling: a labour of love. (Continued) good luck and best wishes!

    Ah yes, ‘Day of the Dead’, is an interesting celebration. Wiki suggest: ‘(Scholars trace) the origins of the modern Mexican holiday to indigenous observances dating back hundreds of years and to an Aztec festival dedicated to the goddess Mictecacihuatl – Queen of Mictlān, the underworld, ruling over the afterlife.’

    Thank you for saying so, all is well in all ways…love ‘n’ life abound.

    ‘Sorry that I have neglected our friendship’ – life is all about ever changing priorities: months and years roll by during which time we all have to do what we have to do to get to where we want to go, but friendship endures throughout.

    Have a wonderful weekend.

    Love and Peace ❤

    • Hey Cindy 😀

      Always a pleasure to have you visit, thank you. I trust all is well and y’all looking forward to celebrating the festive season. This year seems has flown-by so quickly: already another New Year is already nigh on the horizon.

      Thank you for commenting Cindy…you’ve left me reflecting on the intriguing relationship between ‘sail’ and ‘fly’…perhaps they are metaphorically interwoven as much as they are interchangeable as metaphors for always living life to the full.

      Wishing you and yours a wonderful Christmas. Take care of one and all my friend.

      Love and Peace,

      DN
