Contemplating thus

“Pure hearts take from God permission ~
To feel in heart, bliss ignition”
~ quote by poet


We know yet deny, each breath’s new
It’s a gift from God, we abuse
For we follow not, our heart’s muse

Where’s our childlike heart, pure like dew
When we were born, our soul was pure
Why then now are our steps unsure

Trapped in form, we’re caged in this zoo
Walking as though we’re in a daze
Lost and bewildered in life’s maze

We’re desperate for a breakthrough 
It seems ego’s broken love’s link
No wonder then, we sink, we sink

Show us God; nothing less will do
With the pulse of bliss magnetism 
Set aflame this mind-body prism

We know yet deny, each breath’s new
Where’s our childlike heart, pure like dew
Trapped in form, we’re caged in this zoo
We’re desperate for a breakthrough 
Show us God; nothing less will do
