ECSTASY

Ecstasy is supreme joy

Caused by an inner bliss

Self breathes relief and peace

The stony mundane lid melts

Accentuating that godly shine

Such lighthouses warn and guide

Yet we have lost our eyes

  5. I like your definition of 'ecstasy', Sumana. "The stony mundane lid melts" - this is my favorite line. I like the idea that sometimes we can attain such bliss and forget the mundane for a while.
