And watch
My thoughts, with lives of their own
Flash and flutter
Rise and fall
Come and go
So many butterflies outside my window
I smile
And I slow my thoughts
To rest
Kindly and patiently
I calm them all
To rest
Motionless, effortless, all quiet
A great and peaceful ocean
Home to mysteries and treasure
At voiceless rest beneath the sea
With silent contemplation
And inner awareness
The mind clears its way
I enter the vastness
And drift beneath its gentle surface
I slow strong current of deeper self
Currents of serenity
Currents of love
Currents of joy
Currents of bliss
I am suddenly free
Free from a noisy mind
Free from a warring brain
Free to embrace the beauty of all life
Free to connect
With my pure spirit
To know only peace and kindness
Love and joy
A moment of eternal freedom
Liberated by confused mind
The deepest part of me
Emerges from within
And with the small and subtle gentle touches
Silence speaks to me
