Only a distant tap

with its regular drip and splash

Scribbles subtle cartoons

onto a canvas of silence



I use the rhythmical

water against hollow steel

To aid my mental transition

my walk into heaven



I push all thoughts

to a steep border of my mind

Then allow them to fall

off the fluorescent shelf



My breathing, my guide

to paradise yonder

A black sicklebill's song

calls my attention



Her wing span wide

her journey care free

I accept the invitation

to read the in-flight manual



I review my ego

from high in the air

The same way astronauts

stare in awe at planet Earth



My realm apparent

a peaceful world revealed

I Meditate on the conclusion

that we are all one



A universal one

that occupies a spiritual corner

Of an ever expanding shape

as yet undefined

A nice way of saying you're still no wiser than the rest of us:
A universal one
that occupies a spiritual corner
Of an ever expanding shape
as yet undefined

But an enjoyable poem.

Thanks.

Hi Phillip :) this is nice and it also sounded like an out of body experience.

Certainly an inner body experience.

Such a beautiful description! It was almost as if you had written this with a cleared mind (from meditation). Or maybe you did. :)

As clear mind as one could wish for, folowing a good shower in cerebal wondering.

Very well written with such a sense of peace and serenity. Very lovely in its tranquility.
