My Silence-Heart Blossoms, part 1
January
January 1st
Silence-blossoms have awakened my mind.My tears and God's Smiles clasped I find.

My orphan tears begin my day.My princely smiles blaze the Way.
January 3rd
I keep my heart's streaming tearsSleeplessly alive,
So that my Lord's beaming Smiles
In me can thrive.

Energised by my self-improvement task,In my Lord's Transcendent Sun-Flames I bask.

Obedience longs to feed the LordInfinitely more.
Self-deleted, fastest it runs, arrives
And touches the Shore.

I shall climb upMy soul's dream-flooded staircase.
Endless obstacles
Dauntless my heart shall face.
January 7th
Fastest runs to the Goal SupremeMy Lord's Love-Train.
Singing and dancing, therein my breath —
No bondage-chain.
January 8th
Be not empty of light and joy,My foolproof mind.
Heavenward race you never win,
Always behind.

His Face, my face, my Lord together saw,And said, "Yours is perfect like Mine, no flaw."
January 10th
Ecstasy-flooded is the road of Love divine,Divinity's oneness-fulness-sun-shrine.
January 11th
God is weeping for you;Oh, do not cry.
You are bound to succeed:
Just once more try.
January 12th
Each time I shake hands with hostile desires,My God-oneness-visa-delight expires.
January 13th
Battered by teeming doubtsAnd blinding fears,
I compel my Lord Supreme
To swim in tears.
January 14th
Break not your God-gratitude-promise-height;Yours will be Infinity's Silence-Light.
January 15th
The starved desires that stormed my mindAre now deceased, left far behind.
January 16th
Only in God's Orbit I choose to live,And my mind-thorns, heart-fragrance I shall give.
January 17th
When God's God-deep Love-Light-Fragrance appears,To the Golden Shore His dream-life-boat man steers.
January 18th
Oh, if I never fail my Lord,Oh, if I never fail,
His Heart will be eager to know
My life's every detail.

Alas, like me, God also has bad days,And more so when I doubt
His all Compassion-Eye, Forgiveness-Heart.
Totally insane I shout.

God comes to mePrecisely in the form I need.
Him I must feed
The way His Heart wants me to feed.

God pressures my mindBecause of its stark unwillingness-flow.
God treasures my heart
Because of its sleepless eagerness-glow.
January 22nd
Silence I choose to play with my heart-flames.Every single day my monkey-mind God tames.
January 23rd
An immediate 'Yes!' to God's every Command,O my hesitant mind, from you I demand.
January 24th
Heaven is so far from the human mind,But the heart is extremely close.
Heaven commands the mind to halt its journey,
And calls the heart its rose.
January 25th
With my gratitude heart-tears and smilesMy Lord I greet.
My Lord gives me His All,
The moment I clasp His Feet.
January 26th
Delight is born of obedience-willingness;Perfection born of sleepless, selfless oneness.

My sunlit path, no fog, no cloud can hide.My heart-flames enjoy God's sunrise-ride.
January 28th
My soul has silenced my stark confusion-mind;Peace-bliss-blossoms within, without I find.
January 29th
Life is so brief, alas, life is so brief.Why delay in catching ignorance-thief?
January 30th
Before I compose my God-worship-song,My heart strikes His Compassion-Victory-Gong.
January 31st
Since God is God's Forgiveness-Breath,I must declare my ego's death.

February 1st
Oh, permit not your ego-lion to roar,If you desire your heart-bird to soar.
February 2nd
I know what is great is splendid;I feel what is good is candid.
Far from God, my splendour-craving mind;
My heart-candour in God's own Breath I find.
February 3rd
My doubting mind deserves an early death.My self-giving heart implores God's Nectar-Breath.
February 4th
No earthly force can be a true remedy,Only a oneness-heart ready and steady.

My sweet Lord is lonely for my love.I shall make Him my fondness-dove.

On ignorance-studded track.

No more shall I remainA fallen victim to desire.
Behold!
I now have brought
To the fore my inner fire.

No matter where I go,My heart carries the rainbow-hopes.
In despair-night-prison,
Mine is the mind that never gropes.
February 18th
Each time my Lord's Compassion-Eye I see,A nectar-dream blossoms in our oneness-fulness-sea.
February 19th
Within, without, the doubting mind lies.Below, above, the praying heart cries.
February 20th
Because I want to please my Lord in His own Way,Surrender-gratitude-game my life must play.
February 21st
Freedom complete, perfect I love to choose.To ignorance-night no more my life shall lose.
February 22nd
Oh, where are you, my heart's fount-delight?I live in my ruthless mind's destruction-night.
February 23rd
My Lord, I need the SongOf Your Compassion-Eye
To catch my jungle-misdeeds
And quickly nullify.

In God's Heart-Garden I growWith my obedience.
In my heart-nest God glows
With His Confidence.
