Reflections

We have been bestowed with a mind to discern,
which implies we have some measure of free will,
so life choices we make, is the way we learn
but if heart lags behind, we suffer until
the lamp of love is lit in mind-body urn,
whence we may drink soma nectar to our fill.
We would do well to pause and ask who we are
since from path of truth, we have drifted afar.
