Deep Mindfulness

Awake, oh hermit! Employ innate flair
Sieving vibrations as they do arise
Intercepting each desire in midair!

Feeling the stirrings, within our heart rise
Before they crystallise into a thought
View these cravings with nonchalant surprise 

Vigilant mindfulness the way, self taught
Discerning if the urge is love aligned
Rejecting those with desire or fear fraught

Connected to the source, all is divined
Accepting love exalted, as assigned
