Ya Rabb
the Caller calls out
time after time
echoing in my being
resounding from within
lost in the worldly ties
I look all around
east, west, I look for guidance
in directions unseen
yet in my vision
in my dreams
in the experience
of soulful Supreme,
I am drawn closer
I am pulled in
with head bowed lower
I utter words
without known reason
frazzled in thoughts
questioning my physical reality
slowly sinking inside
I ask for Grace
to help me respond
to help me hear and follow
to help me walk the path
is today the day
I ask myself
to surrender
to reach out to Perfection?
is today the day
to submit
to wear the cloak of Protection?
today is the day
the perfect day
(my soul cries)
today is the perfect day
for Resurrection
…..
an ode to February 20, 2014 when in the turning of the tide, life took a 360 degree turn

Absolutely beautiful, Himani, and it reflects how I feel today. In 1996 I fell and broke my leg and ankle, an absolute gift from the Divine because my life changed 360 deg. and so much for the better.

Oh my…such a beautiful post about the origin of east, south, west, north, above, below, within, and all turning. Perfection, closer to us than our jugular.
So very beautiful.
The art matches the inspiration of the words.
Thank you!
