Notes About The Poem

TO BEING IN MIND-BLOWING AWARENESS

 

Rocking and rolling,

Aping hedges in the winds:

Blowing, yet rooted:

Though moving, there’s no progress;

Such mind-blowing awareness:-

 

Such mockery!

Moving, but going nowhere:

Mind and body stunned:-

In aiding progress, one must

Always seek divine guidance:-

 

Moving is one thing,

Progressing is another;

With a focused mind, 

Seek our God’s navigation:

Progressing in assurance:-

TO BEING IN MIND-BLOWING AWARENESS

Rocking and rolling,
Aping hedges in the winds:
Blowing, yet rooted:
Though moving, there’s no progress;
Such mind-blowing awareness:-

Such mockery!
Moving, but going nowhere:
Mind and body stunned:-
In aiding progress, one must
Always seek divine guidance:-

Moving is one thing,
Progressing is another;
With a focused mind, 
Seek our God’s navigation:
Progressing in assurance:-

Sometimes, we need to assess, "I did it my way!" At all times, with God's divine wisdom and guidance, we can be in blessed assurance. One. Peace and Love.
