The Reflected Universe

“This life is but a dream play, yet we do here stream In self centred thoughts sway, not playing as a team” ***************************************** We need not flounder about here, searching for joy Being both the subject and object of our search Doing nothing save negating our ego ploys Divine love dove on our upper branches does perch From our heart springs desire and from desire all thought Potent power manifestation causation Creating a dream world, we ourselves have here brought Both joy and sorrow, being our sole creation Nonchalant and pure of heart, seeking no new toys Innate awareness merges subject and object Thus innocent once again, as is a small boy In the light of love bliss, we stand again erect No longer in delusion or with dark fears fraught We are unshackled from all bondage ego borne Recognizing life as but a dream, thought begot Vibrant in bliss, we are at each moment reborn We need not flounder about here, searching of joy From our heart springs desire and from desire all thought Nonchalant and pure of heart, seeking no new toys No longer in delusion or with dark fears fraught 30-November-2020 (12-syllabic rhyme) Entered for: My Created Form- Rhyme4 Mix Poetry Contest Sponsor: Constance La France
