God does not blink in his eternal watch, because time does not come in to it at all! pure stillness reigns where he is awake, no breath, no whisper there is nothing at all! in a turbulent pond- like a lotus calm! slaves we mortals are to the whip of time, we measure it all day, measure it all night by the beat of the heart, rhythm of the breath, at the birth of a child, to the end of our lives, by the revolutions of earth, Sunset, Sunrise! look deep within the calmness of your Soul, there is a glow of divinity that is real you, there is stillness within that is stillness of God, the absolute truth that doesn't change at all, in a turbulent pond - like a lotus calm! the absolute truth is not the slave of time, because it is so still time does not exist at all, life’s many gains and losses, defeats and pain, have no longer any meaning in this domain, in a turbulent pond- like a lotus calm! align your mind with that divine stillness, perceive the glowing unending brightness, cast away the body, surrender your soul, nothing exists! you are part of absolute truth, the lotus glows - the pond was a mirage!

Hi Krish, This is soothing, peaceful and calm -like the lotus. I am drawn to the stillness it conveys which can only exists in the presence of a God “that does not blink in his eternal watch” - love this opening line.

Thanks Josefina! Yes, It is a vision of divinity I believe in and is based on my concept that truth is eternal and unchanging and when it does not change, time ceases!

Absolutely beautiful Krish. A wonderful poem of faith entwined in the image of a lotus flower and the pond where it thrives. Love the last line - "the pond was a mirage." Congratulations on your first place win! Happy New Year!
