Direct Inquiry

the joy we sought
has been denied
to overcome fear
let God’s light guide

the seat of God
is in our heart
so that is where
our quest should start

to tip toe into heart
thoughts must recede
that in trust we follow
wherever bliss beats lead

the table is laid
our ascent is assured
provided cravings of ego
are gently censured

head melded with heart
inner conflict ends
to the will of God
our presence bends

we see without mirrors
truth of inner light
as God bestows on us
spherical sight

The rhythm of your lines are truly captivating and has a mellifluous flow. And this is a very deep and philosophical write with spiritual touch. I really love “ we see without mirrors” we need no mirror when faith is strong. Love this
