Retrieving Pimeval Peace

Nothingness ancient 
Transformed into the universe nascent 
Matter made from silence 
The core of cosmic sense 
Voids in all things’ essence 
Creator’s unique space they represent. 

In all things that exists 
Primordial universal emptiness persists 
In the depth of the enlightened mind 
Of the evolved mankind 
Filled with unfathomable emotions 
Life gets through attachment. 

Happy trees green in spring 
Don’t hear the birds sing near
When in the fall leaves grow wings 
Life plunged in barrenness turns fallow 
In the loss the clouded mind grieves 
Molten emotions drain
The emptiness they leave. 

Let the soul clear the haze of delusion 
Make the mind diaphanous  
Open the devout inner vision 
Know how from ancient spatial emptiness
Life retrieves primeval peace.
