WEEKLY POEM FOR HUMANITY: MIRROR, MIRROR

“Mirror, mirror of this realm,

What is it about me you tell?

When every face you see

Is just an extension of what you call ‘me.’

The layers that hurt the soul

Are the story that is told.

It is you who creates the mould

And then you watch it unfold.

Could it be that Our connection

Could not be reflected with perfection?

So many times people say,

‘It’s not possible, look the other way.’

And what We say is, it can be

When you let go of the ‘me.’

A beautiful life to live,

Reflecting what The Divine is.

So, break away the layers

In your channel and prayers.

The ones who say that you must suffer

Are only busy with their mutter.

It is only because they do not know

How it feels when you glow

And the world shines back to you

A reflection that is so true.

Mirror, mirror of this realm,

I want to change the picture

You can do that with a new scripture

Rooted in your thoughts

And what you think.

You don’t need to push yourself to the brink

Where you say you’ve had enough,

This life has been so tough.

And was all of that pain

Just wasted in vain?

Or are you open to gain

From what We explain?

Mirror, mirror of this realm,

I dust away the mist

It is time to live in bliss

So you can feel Our kiss

And all the love that you yearn

Is transmuted to a knowing.

You focus on the glowing

And the movie will be showing

That We live in all.

You just couldn’t see it standing tall.

It is time for you to spread

And move out of your head

Where separation is dead

And you experience Us instead.

And every word that is said

To you is a reminder and a clue

Of the clarity of this mirror.

Don’t get dazzled with the shimmer,

There is an infinite river

Of love that will come to flow

And then you will know.

No need to run to and fro.

Thank you.”
