Poetry

Vatsala Radhakeesoon

Soul to Soul Love

Softly, silently, serenely you have touched my soul,

Our pangs locked in the prism of subconscience’s past

now, though oneness, in unison seek liberation

And love with its lofty softness selflessly

caresses, comforts, heals

our bruised, broken, bleeding hearts

Hand in hand, within the expanding, endless vastness

of pure, permanent white light we shine, smile

and peacefully fly beyond the monotonous mundane

to embrace the mystic, majestic flame of

the eternal energy of unconditional, unwavering true love

Past, present and future merge,

Eyes of the seer, eyes of omnipresent God –

they can see our lives, our undying love

and daily they bless our miraculous mission:

First to heal ourselves through the power of love

and in turn through boundless compassion

to soothe the pain of the entire planet Earth.
