Patience Dear

We know now who we are Which is, simply stated, living light Nothing changes, life goes on as before But touch gentles, having garnered clear sight Earlier we were asleep and now we are awake But who we are and were does not change We now dwell in bliss that suffuses form Transcendence seems not strange We see life as but a lucid dream We are pure spirit in mind-body shell Awareness self-aware no longer in trance Marks with reverence the place where ego fell Grace imbibed ours but assimilation yet awaits So life lessons are repeated as in school We go through life in as is ordained Recognising love’s the only rule

After knowing our Self in singularity by seeing directly, earth life as impulsed in duality does not change. What shifts, is our understanding, our perspective

I love the shape of the poem as well as the irregular rhythm. Quite thought-provoking. Thank you for sharing. :)
