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
Your presence is dancing me
Your presence is dancing me
late into evening
releasing You breathe in me
lessons in lessening
enlivening so soulfully
salt dreamings and weathering
till sleep sliding othernesss
untethers me from all of us.
Another couple of You-Tube taster posts
Over the next few months I’ll be recording all/most of the stuff on this blog and placing them on my new YouTube channel called ‘Slow in the City.’

Starting a You-tube channel
Hello
I have just started a You-Tube channel called ‘Slow in the City’, which is me reciting some of these blog entries.
If you are interested here’s my first offering:
Beneath this dry crust
Beneath this dry crust
grit, dust and pain
soft whispering tears
gently refresh Your name
to re-soothe this fright
caress stress and this strife
impress hands side by side so
to fill within Light.
chorus
cheek by cheek, may we discover
Jugular breathing of Lover to lover
Beloved release us, incense us with sweetness
immerse us in perfumes of True Love’s completeness.
Light pouring out
Illuming this living
Re-shining doubt
so to see without seeing
exposing confusion
we free flow these Oceans
to joyfully drown within
earthly illusions.
