Ambling Along

Ambling along, in thought rested silence Mantra Aum, the esoteric diphthong Cognised in void by inner sentience The sound of one hand clapping, our swan-song No doer choosing between right and wrong Gently aligning with voice of conscience Childlike surrender, devotion lifelong Ambling along, in thought rested silence In a continuum thus, our presence Nestled in the current, where it belongs Imbibing therein the nectar essence Mantra Aum, the esoteric diphthong As we plunge into the bliss stream headlong Soul transfixed in divine entwined parlance Moment to moment, we hear the love gong Cognised in void by inner sentience Head and heart aligned, in perfect balance Gripped in rapture of the divine love song Mystical is rhythm of its cadence The sound of one hand clapping, our swan-song It matters not, if life be short or long What counts is that we build no ego fence Kind to both man and nocturnal bettong Embracing one and all, in carefree dance Ambling along 19-January-2021
