Deeply Well
Drinking in the lite life
Checking out for a life time
Holding on for the right vibe
Searching happiness and peace on-line
Mesmerising myself again
Within a moments consolation
Building longer loss upon an instant gain
Drowning with anticipation
And we say:
Please hold on within your strife
But dont let yourself be held by it
Walk bold and free within your life
But don’t stamp your foolish pride on it
Don’t grasp the wrong away from right
Judge and jury of folks behaviour
Be guided by His strong tower light
As you wade in these seas with your saviour
Wading in the watering
Surfing waves that surely quenches
Satisfying thirstfulness again
Immersing well beyond our senses.
After reading pages 206-208 in Volume 1 of The Sufi Message by Hazarat Inayat Khan

Glow garbed flame
And I read further that long ago ‘souls collect atoms of radiance‘ and that ‘glow, garbed with a flame came’ to the lips of a Persian poet. And that now humankind dreams to transform and connect again in metaphor through mountainside and monastery with candle, match and lamp at hand.
