Path strewn with rose petals

Our heart sensed a potent pull magnetic,
borne by a sublime mist mind could not trace,
subtlety aesthetic, rhythm poetic,
grace influx holding us is close embrace.
With each pore a door we could keep no score,
although later mind tried to analyse,
who is the helmsman, who is at the oar,
breath by breath causing heart’s vibrance to rise.
Transformed from inside out, each node was stormed,
by the bliss current pulsating within;
of wisdom of sages we were informed,
silencing ego’s cacophonous din.
Such is as it was, such is as it is ~
We’re the effervescence of a bliss fizz

We’re the effervescence of a bliss fizz,
renewal continual, a heartbeat,
for lower mind, an unsolvable quiz,
there being no translation for cool heat.
Notice the blossoming of a flower,
opened petal by petal by God’s hand,
life in motion, all held by His power,
in the womb of space we don’t understand.
Contemplating thus we asked, ‘Who am I’,
in as unchanging presence in this form,
where memories are clouds and we’re the sky,
truth supreme to which we wish to conform.
To accomplish our goal, that we feel whole ~
We slid into silence to find our soul

We slid into silence to find our soul,
remaining motionless in the vast void,
to reclaim light innate, our ego stole,
that we regain our lustre unalloyed.
Focus animated in cessation,
our emptiness was then filled with bliss mists,
heart’s elation as our meditation,
force of magnetism unclenching our fists.
This narration is a flashback of course,
of how the pathless path may be traversed,
the code easy to read, penned not in morse,
as dance of polarities unrehearsed.
Epiphanies that dawned are prophetic ~
Our heart sensed a potent pull magnetic

I’ve done several 7 interconnected sonnets and one poem with 14 too. However in my view 3 are alright ~ people don’t like to read excessively long poems.
