Zaddik
Given that we nurture ego with thought,
what if we shift to heart,
free from fears lower mind begot,
for a fresh start?
Thoughts of ‘I, me, mine’ rested, who we are,
shines forth as love and light.
Since we’ve drifted afar
our heart’s contrite.
There is no judgment for we are God’s child,
who wishes to return
and having renounced cravings wild,
choose now to learn.
