Notes About The Poem

Show Me God

Why look to the heavens, in skies yonder Simply ceasing striving, enter silence Be still awhile and on this point ponder Let’s consign lower mind to decadence Then soft attention harks divine cadence Blossoming in heart, beauteous love hues Feel oh hermit, our heart’s innate vibrance God’s here now within, so what’s our excuse Man stands against man, all hearts asunder Why did we choose the path of violence Animal urge, dragging us down under Were we not born free, in pure innocence Desire indulgence caused soul’s disturbance Feebly succumbing to ego spawned ruse Listening not to voice of our conscience God’s here now within, so what’s our excuse Live life in astonishment and wonder Feel scent of love in each breath’s ambience Shifting to heart, choosing love touch tender Bliss bubbles burst forth in effervescence We reclaim thus our soul’s luminescence Standing erect, as with bliss throbs we fuse When comes alive, our heart’s inner sentience God’s here now within, so what’s our excuse Divine aligned, we shine in full brilliance As love in love with love, God is our muse Upon Him let’s place, our full reliance God’s here now within, so what’s our excuse 23-January-2022
