Ashes to ashes.

Ashes to ashes.

Dust to dust.

The body goes as it must.

A rented house with expiry date.

For some early,

For some late.

But the timeless heart needs no lease.

Its own abode of timeless peace.

Beyond space,

Beyond time.

Beyond me,

Beyond mine.

Its own abode of timeless knowing.

Unshaken by worldly winds blowing.

To find the timeless we still have time.

It waits within this world sublime.

While yet we breathe we look within.

Letting go of all therein.

Letting go of me and mine.

Peace beyond space or time.

Be still and know.

Be still and know the inner peace.

Where turmoil ends and troubles cease.

Drink deep from endless source.

Refresh the heart with divine force.

Unify the heart.

Make it whole.

Clean this cup.

Empty this bowl.

This bowl when empty is filled with light.

A chalice full of elixir so bright.

Unburden the heart.

Let go this weight of greed,

Anger,

Bitterness,

Hate.

No joy can compare with the heart set free.

Dwelling in peace.

Equanimity.

Being now,

Being here.

Daily baptism with living light.

Heart shining clear and bright.

Resonating higher and higher.

Ascending above worldly mire.

Purified.

Clear and clean.

Letting go of all that's been.

Letting go of expectation.

Filled with peace,

Joy,

Elation.

Heart refined.

Consciousness lifted.

Gratitude for all we're gifted.

Always simple.

Always clear.

Being now,

Being here.

Divine bouquet.

Pax omniscum.

Peace to all.

Room for all in this heavenly whole.

Each a flower in the divine bouquet.

Each contributes in their own way.

Different colors,

Shapes,

Sizes.

Heart blooming as consciousness rises.

Divine perfume from each pure heart.

Each companion playing their part.

Holy company.

Friends on the way.

Fulfilling their role in the divine play.
