Notes About The Poem
2nd place in premier contest
Unseeking seeker contest
Heart gentle eye mindful
It is to know without opening the eyes,
it is to feel without the sense of touch,
it is to understand tranquility of the soul,
and absorb the meaning of eternal presence!
a disturbed mind flutters in the wind of change,
the heart races past the galloping time,
the soul is forgotten in pursuit of pleasure,
mind flips from lost past to unseen future,
the truth is still. Very still. unaffected by time.
It is the anchor of eternity, beyond all known,
for movement is a delusion of lost minds,
in that truth is the vision of a gentle glow,
the glow of absolute knowledge,
that is felt and experienced by the mind,
with eyes closed in deep meditation.
heart is in rhythm with vibrations of creation,
it beats to show it is a function of the body,
it is gentle to symbolise the conquest of life,
Life that had been turbulent with a rowing eye,
but now with eyes closed the mind watches,
and gentleness of heart is breath of existence,
existence of the absolute reality, within which,
is the golden glow of eternal truth.
