Consciousness shift

Come, come now, let’s quieten mind,
shifting to heart, tranquil and kind.
Thought is the playground of ego,
temptations that are best declined.

Fears and desires here now let go
and all attachments too forgo,
seeking nothing but God alone,
that within our heart, love may grow.

Thought is the playground of ego.. so true.. Temptation is the Devil... Nicely done. This reminds me a little of your current contest.. I need to have a think about what to enter in that one..

For me it suffices if my contests induce poets to explore the world within
