Rise Oh Hermit

Rise, oh hermit! Awake now from stupor That which comes and goes unreal allure Our heart lotus blooms and the lamp is lit Feel the touch of love, in stillness quiet Gently imbibing the bliss elixir Pure joyful innocence our demeanour Resting ego borne thoughts, always unsure Head and heart aligned, our stance thus erect Rise, oh hermit! Flowing in meditational prayer Blessings divine continue to outpour An open heart, which forgives and forgets Presence in silence, content to just sit Ineffable joy, the new found flavour Rise, oh hermit! 25-December-2020

Thank you, Paula! Indeed, first forgiveness and then we transcend need to forgive, by unconditional love and acceptance
