Wow

“Simply come undone ~
God and we are one”
            ~ quote by poet


The power of now
enlivens heart’s wow,
birthing a bliss beat,
which is no mean feat.

To know what is meant,
by being present,
needs thought cessation,
to feel elation.

Myriad fears grout,
filling us with doubt;
sans thought, do we die
or in bliss mists fly?

In the deep sleep state,
where our thoughts abate,
we awake restful,
joyous and zestful.

This validation
is soul’s citation,
overcoming death
by love’s healing meth.

We are the subject
and thought an object,
so let us let go,
in staid stillness slow.

In thought rested calm,
we feel bliss embalm
our decaying form,
by magnetism warm.

To know we must be,
so that we can see
and reclaim soul’s light,
dancing with delight.

When we choose to walk,
path of which monks talk,
pulse of love then leads,
as ego recedes.

By our simple shift,
we let God uplift
us right here and now,
whence we feel the wow!
