 soft it lay cradled  
rhapsodic rubicon...

To express the sheer joy of living, like the birds sing to summer's breeze.

“The universe is but a thought in Consciousness
In Reality it is nothing
One who sees the true nature of existence and non-existence 
never ceases to exist”


Contemplation level-1

Is it so? Poof! Gone! A bubble of illusion

Down the fervent aeons Buddha’s sagesse,
casts its august shroud on benign witness,
shades, shadows, subtle symbol shift,
encompass cosmopolitan and temporal,
incongruous to flaccid predilection feigned,
astute statue of nuance and nicety,
crosses annual acme’s snowflake whirl,
Christmas that propitious seasonable...

where everything just slows down

Did Bach know to what end
his harvest of melodies-in-parallel would become?

Scholars agonize

Was creation of counterpoint
musical destiny

As I crept across the floor.

Our breath attuned in synchronous...

The sea of boundless Oneness
Cognised by ascending consciousness 
Transitioning to pure awareness

Within deep meditational stillness 
Our form blending with our formlessness

In humble innocence
