Ashram Poetry

[External]

Flurry of activity -
Restless, eager, relentless waves crashing
Dashing, lashing, bashing
Constantly surveying, analyzing, thinking
Drinking, eating, sleeping
Days and days of wandering and wondering
Numb, blind, unfeeling, deaf,
dead.

A cold broken silence.

Whispers
At first faint, then louder, begin to
build.  Piece by piece they all come together
Life returns, but different now.
Quiet, calm, serene
Waves gently lap the shore
Kissing the ground again
And again
Softly calling
Me to listen.

[Internal]

The air is changing.
Charged with silence
Energy begins to flow backwards
From space inwards
Inside the energy flies -
And nobody smiles though
Everything is illuminated
in Divine Light
Nobody looks you in the eye
But all is clear.
A soft, gentle silence is shared
As they pass by
They are looking within.

I am created in Divine Light
I am sustained by Divine Light
I am protected by Divine Light
I am surrounded by Divine Light
I am ever growing into Divine Light
