I try to contain
Love’s ever-expanding movement
With my mind
And I could not hold it.
So, I apologize in advance
When it spills all over you.
Love
Every now and again
Time takes a vacation
And disappears from
The eyes of our awareness
Into the heart of our purpose
Turning our actions into
Time itself.
So, if you are intent
On knowing the time
Be love to all you can find.
When sight
Takes over
My seeing,
The mind
Abandons its yearning
And ego its doing.
My entire being
Dissolves into the loving
That Life is being.
I closed my eyes
And in my
Naked surrender
Emptiness embraced me
And made me Love
In just a moment,
The purest
Vision of Love
We see
Inside ourselves
Will take form
Through our words
And deeds.
Wait. for. it…
No.
That is not
How it works.
We must
Make love.
My exercise routine
Is to fly through time,
With feet and thoughts intertwine
Into the embrace
Of Love divine.
Find the roots
Of disturbing thoughts.
Nourish them
With the nutrients
Of forgiveness
And kindness.
Cultivate the ground
For peace in all directions.
Extend your
Shackled mind
To the boundless
Hand of Love.
It holds the solution
To your sure
And final liberation.
So have no doubt
You cannot
Remain locked
Not even from
A half-turn
Of Love’s master key.
Ever since I
Plunged my head
Beneath the
Ocean of Love
The soggy ground
Of this mind
Can no longer
Hold the weight
Of a single thought.
Every one of them
Keep seeping through
To the empty ground of Love
Whether for
One minute,
One hour,
Or one day
Sitting on our meditation cushion
Prevents violence,
Preserves lives,
And lovifies the
Human heart.
