Expansion and contraction

Bliss bubbles speak to us and heart understands,
forging with God’s creation a loving bond,
treading mindfully, as consciousness expands,
emotes of love being the way we respond.
The light of Self within is where we’re centred,
portal to heaven through which our soul entered,
wherein fixated remains our firm focus,
frolicking thus with joy, along love’s locus.

Joy, a fairy tale but was not always so,
in days when we believed we are body-mind
and since the truth of our Self we did not know,
we regret wasted days from love misaligned.
In our yesteryears, we nurtured lust and rage,
our thoughts narrow, easily taking umbrage,
ignorance our fault line, which we didn’t dispel,
being captive to our wayward ego’s spell.
