Poem about Buddhist meditation
by Gerard Sarnat MD
Sunday Sangha Sitting
No
Longer
Quarter lotus
Floor material
I
Sit,
King
In castle
Chair,
Feet on
Ground,
Eyes closed.
Gazing
Up, I’m
Flooded with
Some vague hope
Emanating
From skylights
Of this old church
We have converted.
Head
On core’s
Tentpole turned
Down and inward
Thoughts
Become dark
Til brought back to
Cleansing in-and-out breaths
Severing
Paranoia my broken
Butt bones are wired to
WikiLeaks…Peace returns.
Meditation
Ended by sweetest
Softest, slowest 3 gongs ever,
H. Sapien rejoins monkey chatter.

Poem about Silence and God
by Chris Roe
(UK)
Sentinel of Conscience
From the first prayers,
And dreams of my journey,
A silent voice
Has stood sentinel
Within my soul.
No answers given,
No miracles offered.
No blinding light
To penetrate the darkness.
No dogma or creed,
No sectarian vision,
Only silent prayer,
Through times of joy and pain.
This silent voice,
This sentinel of conscience,
Has been my shadow,
Has shared my life,
Has given reason enough
To continue my journey
Through the darkness,
And on, into the light.
Note from webmaster of a-spiritual-journey-of-healing.com, Katherine T Owen Dear Chris,
Thank you so much for this beautiful poem about the silent voice of God.
I relate to your words and the love of God they express.
The silent voice does give reason enough, doesn't it? We are blessed to know this. Thank you for the reminder.
With the Love we are,
Katherine
