About seven years ago I lived for 24+ months in Sri Lanka/Ceylon (a resplendent island); had the opportunity to purchase & read Linda's star-sent books, which entirely skyrocketed my imagination by way of electrical motivation . . . from Linda's Astrological, Metaphysical & Poetical knowledge to her peculiar form of writing, I was simply set ablaze. Later merged into the kNOWing, grOWiNg things, I found out that Sri Lanka was formerly known as Serendib or Serendip and that was a powerful enLIGHTenment; such a serendipitous discovery.

I’m not much of a poet but here's a little, simple fragment from the collection of my poesy scribbled at SERENDIB:

Secret Moments of Inspiration!

In those moments, my eyes slammed shut in petition
Saw doors of an immensely awaited dream in my life slung open

Moments incredible, sublime of motivation, enameled with triumph
A streak of strange lightning, one powerful strike, psychedelically
A tremendous transition of situations I beheld
‘Fter a wearisome peregrination of wild encounters
Full of confounding hazes of emptiness, loss, and loneliness . . .

Approaching those moments
I indubitably grasped an instinctive descry
That a light had surely began to shine
Lighting the cave of my dreary dark existence

Highlighting greater hope for tomorrow
Divine predictions abound
Filling the filth stuffed sphere of the mind
With this driving inspiration of the tide prophetic ride

Moments surpassing delight
A presence of indescribable sensation, lingering
Causing me to think rightly, and to write only but truth
Excepting all harm, distortion and pretence

The truth that rest upon the heart
Perchance to learn how to live
Living to learn how not to forget supplication
Not to forget those moments
The secret moments of inspiration
