My sweet beloved readers,
Do you ever long to run away from it all? Just go somewhere. Where? You don’t know….but far, far away. To a place of peace. A peace that passeth all understanding.
Then again, do you delight in connections – with each other here in blogging, with family, with plants, animals – indeed all of creation. Giving and receiving, smiling and touching, crying and wiping tears? Dipping in the sweetness of love.
I struggle with this ever day. With every breath.
I inhale and long
To be free from it all
Live in silence within
Om, my father,
Lord Shiva
I exhale and join
In the cosmic dance
Of love and tenderness
Ma, my mother
Mata Parvati
Om, Om, Om
Ma, Ma, Ma
A cosmic child of parents divine
My life seeks freedom
And then longs to be love.
Drenched in love
She longs to be free
To live in this world
But not be of it.
Sri Krishna Sharanam Mama

Your poems give words to our thoughts – the thoughts we can’t express, the thoughts we don’t know exist – even if they do – we don’t know how to access them! Thank You for sharing!

I can feel you my dear friend ………that feeling to free ourselves from all bondages and flee ……some want to go on a search for Divine peace but the bondages of everyday life holds us back . We all have a purpose in life which we must complete

Thank YOU so much — We worship one formless God but that God in many forms – so sometimes God is worshiped as Pure Consciousness (Shiva) – Eternal and then as Mother Divine (Parvati) manifesting as this creation – it is a dance between them both. I feel so blessed you understand – our hearts are connected and we walk together on this path. Thank You for your presence. 🙂

I can relate to your thoughts, as I also like to run away to a far away place and be at peace, with myself to gather my thought in silence. At the same time I like to be back to my blogs, plants and the birds in my garden. Wonderful words and poem Thanks. Love and Light from me 🙂 ❤
