Premiere Contest WinnerMeditation

A slight tingle tickles my toes; as I slip reality's grip. And leaving behind all my woes, I imagine a moonlight dip. The gilded waves anoint my brow; releasing untethered feelings. And on leaving the here and now; I achieve heights without ceilings. Euphoric waters ebb and flow; adrift on life's fast-flowing stream. And as entanglements let go, consciousness slips into a dream. Like vapors wafting off the sea; I shuck earthly shackles that bind. And a wave washes over me; as tranquility calms my mind. When focused on meditation, my heart and soul merge into one. And approaching exaltation, I see God's light, bright as the sun.
