HAPPY HALLOWEEN

That slender figure

With thousands of green eyes glowing

Was beckoning

A winged Babe responded

And began drinking darkness

Until dawn cracked letting out the huge yolk

The tree was happy

COMFORT

Those rare moments of comfort come

When huge word waves recede in the mind

And not a ripple is created

All thoughts escape into nothingness

Only the being remains

Everything seems to be made of peace

Everyone appears to be angels

Only Comfort reigns supreme

The heart becomes a spring of joy

Wish to God that realm of Beauty

Is given to all

MASK

I am consciousness alone

Wearing the body-mask for the time being

And watching how the Cosmic Soul

Has put on the mask of the universe

I am related to everyone and everything

I am beyond death

When the time comes

I shall cast away the mask

And be one with the Cosmic Soul

MIRRORS

MIRRORS

As I stand in front of the mirror
I see you Baba*, not me
The same face........
The same looks.......
The flame is still there
I am the mirror image of you
Face.......the same
Looks......the same
There still is the flame
Not me, Baba, I see you
As I stand in front of the mirror
