Unseeking Seeker Poet Dizain

Flickering Awareness

Having been shown that we are living light,
how may we assimilate this knowing
in our mind-body with spherical sight,
that in time stretched silence, we keep flowing,
seeing clearly our inner light glowing?
Encased in form, attention oscillates
and so we languish outside heaven's gates.
Flickering awareness is of no use,
for the peace we felt, on earth plane abates,
so we are still and let bliss beats seduce.

Sara Kendrick March 21, 2023 at 6:50 AM Sometimes we put our light under the bushel where it is hidden from the world and sometimes even from ourselves. We need to let our lights shine from upon the hilltops. Thanks for sharing this one and for dropping by my page.
