Meditation

People ask if I meditate still, as I did when he was first missed

in hours of yoga every day seeking answers and quiet bliss.

How to reply is difficult for I spend more time everyday

but in seconds only, in quiet fragments, never drifting far away.

Because during those epochs of pure white-gold light cleansing me with its wisdom

I learned what’s not a secret, but what I had forgotten.

I remembered I’ve only the now, with past and future in fluctuation

and I remembered that heaven and happiness is not a destination.

About This Poem

About the Author

Region, Country: Western Australia, AUS

Favorite Poets: Favourite poets? So many, so varied. I like particular songs, not necessarily the singer... and the same goes for poetry. I can honestly say though, that Alfred Noyes' The Highwayman was what inspired my love of poetry - my mother began reading it to me when I was still a baby, and it became my favourite bedtime story

Dear Judy

I wish I could meditate. My mind is too cluttered with rubbish that it’s hard to switch off. My doctor has suggested this many times and has tried to guide me on how to do it, but I just laugh and feel stupid. Maybe one day when I’m at peace with myself...Great write.

until you meditate through the rubbish

you won't find the peace you're talking about rosina it's a catch 22 - you first have to work through the baggage and stray thoughts and you need to meditate to do this love judy xxxx http://www.strategicpublishinggroup.com/title/TwentyMyPrettyPonies.html
