Discontent with the way things are we flounder about seeking joy and to this end we strive and spar but cavings of ego decoy, so rudderless we drift afar. Transfixed by diverse forms we see, we're in a state of hypnosis; nurturing lust, our soul's at sea. Prayer proffers the prognosis ~ head and heart should with love agree. Renouncing thus every excuse, thoughts rested, we choose cessation, succumbing not to ego’s ruse, we align with love’s vibration; rapture of bliss becomes our muse. 17-October-2022 HMS, Rhymezone, PS, Grammar THREE STANZA POEM IN QUINTAIN (SICILIAN) Poetry Contest Sponsor: L Milton Hankins

This is the way to search for true bliss. Forget the ego and think only on the Creator.

Not think ~ feel. :)

Beautiful entry for the contest. I hope to see it in the winner's list. As ever, you seek to explore how inner joy and bliss can be achieved by aligning to love and 'never succumbing to ego's ruse'
