Come and Find Me In My Solitude

Away from the kinetic trails of the day, My entire spirit pines for a lilting mantra Where I turn into a tender shape Fluid, quiet and chaste…my lucent breaths Taste the scent of feline quietude warmed By buoyant flows into the welcoming infinity of space that accepts nothing nothing But an amiable pilgrimage of the heart’s wish— 0ne with one where I inhabit the ‘now’ In its universal residence ,as my whole essence Marvels at the joy of contemplative silence … That allowing ‘what is’ opens my being Like a harvest of light and flowers Within an unknown garden where a dove, a river Becomes a softened, divine tune humming , "Come and find me in my solitude." Late June 2018 Premiere Contest For Brian Strand
