Om

The long ringing hum
Of the singing bowl
Releasing its holy om

Enchanting coasting gliding
Hovering in mid air
Till elevated to a higher realm

Betwixt heaven and earth
Mingling with celestial spirits
Of obvious angelic descent

Connecting mortals with divinity
A chant to intertwine the two
Mythical mystical blessedly delectable

Line, I had been holding off from purchasing a singing bowl, but I have mediated with "om" and the power I felt dazzled me. Maybe a singing bowl is in my future, as I take these poems as "God-things" and this one resonates with me in every clear and pure way.
