A Way of Understanding

A Way of Understanding

Deep silence in the mind is a void,

we are told – but I see it more

as a tunnel, a conduit

taking awareness out

to meet Larger Mind

('universal

consciousness')

and merge

with.

Keeping Watch

Keeping Watch

In the hushed solitude of late night –

communing with moonlight and owl,

drifting clouds, oceans of stars –

I gaze down through the pane

at our little street

in its calm, still,

slumbering,

silent

dark.
