"And the lotus unfolds to my surprise"


Poem Artwork



In the nature of an experiment
I like to find out how high I can get
Out of my mind now I get to forget

I like to be as far as eye can see
When I can remember who I am then
As I was and am and will be and yet
Not as I was then but I am now when
I like now and like how it looks on me
As I try on a new reality
And the lotus unfolds to my surprise

Transcending fear by love beyond regret
Now this is the way I pray how today
A blossom toward the sun I turn to rise
Through tonight to the light I never met
Before to more to bloom with room to grow
Where having always wondered there to know
After the laughter up up and away

I soar beyond where the darkness can go
To find happiness or else where it went
In the nature of an experiment
