Veiled

“Ignorance is the veil, we need to lift ~ If we be silent, soul’s ascent is swift” ~ quote by poet Time and again we find that we have failed to embrace that joy of which scriptures speak and so truth of existence remains veiled, since indulgence in desires makes us weak. Ceasing striving, if we simply be still, bereft of thought flow, identity dies and thus fully surrendered to God’s will, we feel within form, bliss magnetism rise. The shift then is from thinking to feeling, by choosing to align head with our heart, we unveil what ego was concealing, as bliss ignition within us does start. Oh hermit, know that God and soul are one ~ Save coming undone, nothing need be done 20-April-2023 ___________ Writing Challenge - 'V' Words Poetry Contest Sponsor: Constance La France
