JOURNEY TO BLISS IN THE STILL OF THE NIGHT In the still of the night, Long before the dawn of a new day, When no one moves along the road As the world sleeps and dreams And silence exudes from my heart, I have awakened and come to my My sacred space of prayer and meditation To bring bliss and blessings Into this dusty, pain filled world. I sense what is needed To climb Prayer Mountain within And the price always is To lay down the daily mundane Mind and take up the beating heart Of my own true self who is Ever one with the divine. The chirping of the crickets And the silent full moon sailing On its journey among the stars, The sweetness of little waves Of delight rising in my soul, all Call me back to the higher reality As the shining path opens before me On this inner journey back to the One Deep in the stillness of the night.
