Notes About The Poem

Stooped Stance

Melding with the void,
blissful, overjoyed,
we choose to descend
to help souls ascend.

In search for the light,
there’s no wrong or right;
since the truth is veiled,
by fears we’re assailed.

Ignorance the cause
why love’s put on pause,
so we have no choice
but to heed God’s voice.

Conscience is within;
listen to begin.
Complex made simple ~
just rest thoughts nimble.

Buddha and Jesus;
their teachings please us
but then we forget,
languish in regret.

Easy is the road,
heart is God’s abode
but being ill bred 
we live in our head.

Discard all knowing
and keep on flowing,
head-heart hand in glove,
embracing God’s love.
