Awareness

Perceptions, like tender sun rays, swiftly peep in, With inference as sharp as the prick of a pin; Comparison, like a physical balance, weighs, With the sound of assertion, awareness does blaze...! Like a light that illumines the properties, dense, Permeates the cognitive conscious common sense; Steering the mind, senses, breath, and each emotion, Physique-psyche oneness becomes the life notion...! As the consciousness, that springs from unconsciousness, Undergoes the process of pre-consciousness; Awareness from self turns to the universal, As leaves of fall form communion at dispersal...! Openness leads to awareness, the Bible says, Awareness leads thoughts, words, and deeds in divine ways; Knowledge of self directs to the knowledge of God, Halal that's done in awareness, Islam does laud...! Conscious stillness in silent equilibrium, Sweeps away, from within, mental delirium; Harmlessness to self and other creatures creeps in, When conscious awareness, in rhythm, minds entwine...! 19 January 2023 Source of our awareness Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Unseeking Seeker
