Jim Hawks a local business owner, author and poet has released a volume of profound mystical poetry. Mystical Conversations is the first in a series of poetry collections that intend to move the reader both spiritually and emotionally. Designed as a tool to facilitate contemplation, meditation and daily introspective practices Mystical Conversations creates a deep feeling of peace and a sense of understanding the great questions of life.

While pondering, reflecting, and meditating Jim began to record his thoughts and feelings. He shared his written words and noticed that people read them and reacted in interesting ways. His poems created a few smiles, some contemplation of the meaning but mostly a deep feeling within the reader. Upon requests for written copies of his work, Jim realized he must take his work to a larger audience. Upon revision Jim felt he had a collection of work for those that want a break from the "material noise" that we are all faced with daily, something to take their mind elsewhere and think of more profound topics.

"I just finished reading your poem, "The Place".  I loved it!  You are very gifted and how lucky we are to have somebody like you to have listened to your Higher Self and help raise the consciousness of the earth.  Thank you!" Love & Laughter,
- Christine S.

About the Poems
Jim Hawks - Artist, Poet and Yogin

These selected poems came from
my daily meditations. To maximize the works they should be read and
contemplated on in a quiet
place. The poems have a deeper meaning than appears on there
surface and should be read three
times in order to metabolize the words and their meaning. As the Buddha told his disciples, "The first time you are not paying
attention. The second time you thought you knew. The third time you begin to know."

Poet's Forward

I believe all of us are on a path of learning. At certain times in out lives we start to ask the age old questions why are we here? Who am I? When we really start to seek and are in earnest the answers start to come. And then the quest begins. We start to make choices based on awareness. Then we take responsibility for our lives and try to find meaning and purpose. I believe my purpose is to express myself artistically. I hope these words take you to far reaching places of your mind. Maybe even inspire!
