Rise From Stupor
Be wary dear soul of lull before the storm
Languish not in comfort zone
Complacency sets in, amidst bliss caress warm
Yet crisis strikes, when we’re alone
Too late then, for us to atone
Make no mistake; the universe will test
At the least expected moment
The pure of heart lightly pass this off in jest
For the rest, it’s dark fear poignant
We turn to God, omnipotent
Yet too often, we falter at the altar
Since we choose to dwell in darkness
We stand not firm, like the rock of Gibraltar
Reflex response stuporousness
Deadened is our consciousness
Thus moment to moment, oh dear lama
Let’s hark to voice of conscience
Heart cleansed of stigma, life then no enigma
Sparkles childlike innocence
Aglow in God’s luminescence
