DEPTH OF SELF.





Close your eyes
Shut it off....
The mindless chatter of
The mind
Go inward, deep within
The well of your being
Go with the flow
Of your breath...
See the colors of the spectrum
Their petals slowly unfurling,
Taking the soul
Higher into the cosmos
Energizing the spirit
Merging into the White
Of the limitless Universe
Illuminating the halo
Of Enlightenment

    Shut it off....
    The mindless chatter of
    The mind... not always easy...but important to have these quiet times... i often go for a walk to shut off the voices..

    I have so enjoyed getting to know your work by visiting your blog here. How lucky if you can really get to this level of getting away from the chatter of life and the mind. Reminds we of trying meditation in college. I was not successful at it--just made my mind spin more! Thank you for participating in Poetry Jam.

    Wonderfully crafted poem, very nice and spiritual. The Inner Self ... great that's the strongest energy we, humans, can use.

    Namaste

    I like this, but am having a hard time turning off the mindless chatter of late and my halo's a little rusty, too. Thanks for this wonderful and spiritual piece.

    To attain inner peace we need to shut off the mindless chatter of the mind! Love what you have written.

    I think those words are so beautiful and for some reason think they would be helpful to me for when I am trying to sleep and help my insomnia. To close off the chatter and just have peaceful thoughts would be so wonderful.

    Thanks for playing and happy TT to you. Can't wait to see what you write next week.

    God bless.

    Hello Janu.
    I don't do yoga, but it's good to shut off & just immerse ourselves in silence. Nice...like the imagery too. Thanks for sharing.
