Deepening Stillness

deepening stillness quietly
by accentuating presence
and softening attention
in receptive silence
enriched by trust and love
melding with the flow
of the one consciousness 
manifest as individuated form ...

deepening stillness thus
devoid of lower mind
memory imagery rested
as also expectation
or anticipation
cognisant of each life pulse
as of bestowed enableability 
flavours of divine imbibed ...

deepening stillness in the void
of no-thingness vibrational 
mind body instrument responds
by resonating gently
with prismatic hues of love
vivified by bliss magnetism 
osmotically percolating within
suffusing each pore of form ...

there is no one here, oh hermit
who may pass on this knowing

Thanks Andrea! An occasional success reminds me of the film, ‘one flew over the cuckoos nest’!
