Poem
Within this vast Universe Each limited entity sings it's verse But who we really are, we do not know So let us find out together, in stillness slow We are bestowed with senses five and mind However, we are restricted and confined Moreover body dies, subject to decay Are we merely feeble form of clay Bemused by illusions, fears nonplus Luckily, lofty beings walked among us Jesus, Buddha, ascended masters, saints All teaching how we may transcend constraints The teaching is simple: God is and He is good Love is the tool by which He is understood The body's ephemeral, soul is eternal To know God, live a life internal Given that God is omnipresent He must then be within us resident Silencing thought flow din, let us tip toe in Surrender and so allow the play divine to begin At first nothing happens, for we are not quite still Unless we are empty, we yet retain egoic will Slowly, our erst fears and desires recede We follow, letting conscience lead With head and heart, hand in glove Thoughts words, acts aligned with love Rekindled is the glow of childlike innocence Which releases within us a blissful luminescence Life will pose challenges for we are here to learn That love is the flame in which all sins burn Sin itself being caused by ignorance Replaced by a sublime fragrance In timeless time, we vaporise Beholding each breath in surprise Feeling God's life force pervade our form Ever present rapture of bliss magnetism warm Consciousness expands, we see God within all The manifest Universe, is this bliss squall As a child of God, we too are His light Known when awakens inner sight 27-October-2022 Tell It Like It Is Poetry Contest Sponsor: Mystic Rose Rose
