Light Within I sit like Buddha, bald of pate In transcendental mood create. Eyes to heaven, head bowed down and A thought my only covering gown. I wait an answer in the void My placid spirit holds centroid. Unconscious of the gentle rain Oblivious, all human pain. My beggars bowl, are hands upturned Asking alms that my spirits yearn. Waiting for a flickering bright To light the darkness of the night. I pray for the light of the sun To further light the light begun. To light my pace of mind with grace This open door I do embrace. With innocence my only shield I sit in meditations field. |
