Unseeking Seeker Poet Sonnet

Notes About The Poem

Memory Imagery

Although the moments gone by, we release,
memory sometimes stokes dying ember,
rekindling pain, granting them new life lease,
unless we shrug and slip into slumber.

The fault as always, is our delusion,
yet stagnating in earth bound attachment,
indulgence therein, cause of confusion,
plunging heart into deep discontentment.

Our mindful eye quickly detects the fault,
recognising life play as but a dream,
wherein soul’s immune from ego’s assault,
provided presence shines like a sunbeam.

Pendulum of time swings by night and day,
mattering not if love, be our mainstay.
