Breathing the breath

Breathe the sweet breath of life,

sink into the serenity of the universal stillness,

the true heaven.

 

I see the thoughts as emptiness,

and lightly touch them to let go.

 

Further & further I fell in this spiritual vortex

of the present moment,

and then I see what everyone calls "God."

 

I begin to weep those subtle tears of peace

because my worries & resentments have finally been released.

 

Another thought arises like a cloud covering the sun,

but my light is not gone. Again I light blow the cloud away.

Back to the stillness of "Now" where I belong & where I stay.

 

Oh, take me away sweet breath of mine,

let the stillness of the Now always shine.
