Slow boat

If we but continue to flow
Mood and mode, embrace and release
Blockages within us unfreeze

Stagnating nowhere, heart aglow
Recognising life is a dream
We slow down narrow thoughts that stream

Repaying debts of love we owe 
We break free from the karmic chain
Whence grace in-pours like lively rain

Blissful in the boat God does row
We reclaim the light of our Self
As life flows in all by itself

Truth of our soul, we get to know
As we grow in love and wisdom
Tiptoeing into God’s kingdom

If we but continue to flow
Stagnating nowhere, heart aglow
Repaying debts of love we owe 
Blissful in the boat God does row
Truth of our soul, we get to know
