Hungry for months
Probably years for
Fulfillment of the inner being to
Quiet all of the fears
After sitting down to a dinner
And eating until we’re filled
Then walking away feeling empty
Wondering about God’s will
Leaves fall from the tree
In keeping with the time of year
Letting go of so-called possessions
Which we hold so dear
Enticed by the aroma of coffee
Thrilled with the magic of wine
The afterglow of fine cognac
Are you sitting with the Divine?
Candle glow and singing waves
Have a connection with the flow of time
How easy it could be to free oneself
From the prison to the sublime
Empty oneself of foolishness
End service to false idols
Put energy into serving
Change the “I can’t” to “I will”
One must empty to be filled
Listen for your direction
Prepare in a joyous way
This is your resurrection
