I think I will read a sacred book
tonight
reminisce on His glories
recount the incredible leelas
of the Lord
then I will sweeten my heart
with songs to my beloved
anything that will bring You
closer
quiet the baying hounds
comfort the lost souls
light a candle in the darkest
hours before the
golden dawn

Airborne
the light holds us aloft
like starry lights
radiant with breath
in goodness we rise
fragile wings
we are loved
cherished
remembered
every 17 seconds a prayer
gently whispered
can save…
is a lifeline
thrown deep into the
abyss

I found the perfect fountain to
to feng shui our fall garden:


A bronze Buddha seated high on a lotus.
Waterfalls cascade


I wondered what flowers to plant
as an offering and came across
this lovely inscription:


"Blooming azaleas
 in a hollow on a cliff.

A Buddha stands."

Tonight I drink the ruby wine
of God’s sublime name
my rosewood mala dangling
alluringly over my fingers
each bead calling Him
each sip of His precious
name a holy grail
a divine elixir
brewed in Heaven’s
vineyard


Drunk on a love
that the world can never
understand
I sing His name
and dance through the
moonlit streets  
with Ramakrishna, Mira Bai
and all the crazy
God intoxicated Saints

Sometimes I wish I could
see into the future
gaze Like Nostradamus into
a pool of flaming water
Tomorrow disrobing
disclosing all her hidden secrets
how seductive it would be
to lift the fluttering veils
between worlds seen and unseen
read the destiny of uncharted stars
soft multi-colored gaslights glimmering
across the vaporous ethers
but then I ponder
in my heart
to what avail would all
this be if I don’t know


who I am


the vast person
enthroned within
who answers to a thousand names
and no name
The One in which
the sun, moon
planets, whirling galaxies,
universes
humanity and all
that exists animate
and inanimate
moves, breathes and
has its being

Yes! Call me a crazy fanatic,
a God intoxicated fool!
stark raving madly
in love with beautiful You

Obsessed,
I stalk Your every invisible move
Breathless, I run through
fog and mist that clouds
Your celestial, elusive Presence
chanting Your holy name
contemplating the glorious leelas
and remembering the power and
splendor that created all this

And Yes! I would
move heaven and hell
for a chance to
consciously, perfectly, wholly and
completely
Be with You
heart and soul forever
