Short Sidestepping Poems

In Paris, was caught in the rain,
and it caused me considerable pain;
sidestepping a well,
in the river I fell -
they pronounced me completely in Seine...

"I'd say" 
you are sidestepping into rhyme, 
the witches spell, 
direction time, 
casting of thoughts, 
will powers mime, 
beware the rhyming spell, 
in time, 
4 ye are doing well. 
sublime.

Careful Russell rhyme will get ya:)...

Ego pursues us in the void
Though layers then subtle
Vaporised self, by it not toyed
Since bliss is our mantle

Oh hermit, be aware
Let each breath, with love pair
Sidestepping ego snare

Impulse renews
Ego pursues

Each pore a door, so be aware
Of each divine impulse
Silence, sidestepping ego snare
Manifests bliss at once

With God, to become one
No doing need be done
Enjoy life and have fun

Let grace in-pour
Each pore a door

Cave of our heart is God’s abode
Fold hands here in prayer
Drenched in bliss mists, pay Him an ode
Our soul’s lifelong affaire

With thoughts, words and deeds just
Sidestepping ways of lust
Transform this form of dust

God search here start
Cave of our heart...

As of soul pact, hold and release
Each offered vibration
Flow with ease, like the morning breeze
Sidestepping stagnation 

To make easy, earth life
Exit hatred and strife
Nonchalant, with bliss rife

Ego retract
As of soul pact

Unfocused gaze, as bliss throbs rise
Soul, in the void wading
Poised presence beholds in surprise 
Magnetism cascading

Awareness self-aware
Sidestepping ego snare
Breathes in love suffused air

Feeble thoughts laze
Unfocused gaze

Heaven on earth, ours for asking
Sidestepping stagnation 
In God’s light, joyously basking
Time stretched meditation 

Like the fresh morning breeze
Flowing with carefree ease
Just embrace and release 

In blissful mirth
Heaven on earth

Sweet serenity serenade's my soul,
Solitude’s song stills storms of much sorrow;
Stars scatter stardust in my calm spirit,
Sending silent silver signals softly.
Suddenly joy summersaults so swiftly.
Stellar smiles form simultaneously, 
Sidestepping shallow stratospheric sounds.

Memorising scriptures was all in vain,
since symbolic words but addressed our mind,
whereas our soul wished to walk the terrain,
to vanquish demons of darkness that bind,
enabled on becoming love aligned.
Breath by breath thus, we chose to walk the talk,
mindfully sidestepping desires that stalk
and in no time at all, felt a bliss squall,
imprinting truth with indelible chalk,
revealing light of true Self standing tall....

what’s revealed remains concealed 
for those who as yet dwell in the dark
but if they wish, they too can be healed 

truth is simple, straightforward and stark
voids within fill if we choose to be still
ascending along love’s upward arc

easy becomes soul’s ascent uphill
upon surrendering, making heart pure
in stream of bliss we then drink to our fill

sidestepping the web of desires that lure
make eye mindful and touch demure...
