The Faded Shade
A sentimental sentiment
Is part of my prevailing mood;
A consequential condiment
To my exquisite interlude.
A perfect penetration made
Within experience sublime
Eliminates the faded shade
That marks the tragedy of time.
I stand alone in private thought
(euphoric on this earthen day)
receiving all that I have sought
as proud production comes my way.
To find serene serenity
Inside this simple mind of mine
Brings forth a pure tranquility
Refined by light within to shine.
Achieved with solitary ease
A state of bliss I now have found;
Resigned to bliss, consigned to please,
A soul transcendent and profound.
I thank the teaching of the muse
Who then, in gentle quietude,
Committed to me rules to use
Applied and tried in solitude.
A man set free from pain and tears
As vectors changed within life's flight;
Then love's sweet peace replaced his fears
With clarity of perfect sight.
