My Shrine

Come inside my shrine
Leave the world outside
Stillness in the air
Peace and tranquility everywhere.

Come into my light
Taste this sweet delight
Nothing can harm you here
No thorns can bring you tears.

Celtic sounds play in your ear
Chaos and noise will disappear
One with nature in inspiration
Let your mind drift in imagination.

Watch your agony in the falling leave
Soaking your sorrow, pain, and grief
Abundant and fertile is your soil
All shall rise like the buds of Spring.

One with Nature, One with Self
Lies the secret of Omnipotence.

Let all your spirit flames burn
in our everlasting mystical zen.
