SOARING DELIGHT “There is no limit on how high you can fly, Or on how far you can rise in consciousness, Or how much Love you can share and receive If you are willing to always strive to maintain And live by a totally positive, grateful and Purely Loving attitude above all else.” —Yeshe Gyamtso The lights come on as The day bends to darkness And the reluctant sun sinks silently Behind the mountains to the west. My heart is filled with a sweet sadness So strong that I linger at the edge of An ocean of tears, casting off to sail this Night alone on the sea of grief. It is far more profound than just The passing of another day and Its deeper than simple melancholy For I know that every one of These fleeting, passing hours and days Is part of a descending arc towards The ending of my days and separation From all I have learned to love. This journey must go on and on As we now flow into a night sweet With the singing of crickets in the grass And bellowing of frogs in the dew. I now know how to use every precious Minute to its utmost in our higher good— Aware of the Truth than even death Is not the end, but a pause between lives As we change from living in these dense bodies To our true selves of radiant light spirits, Joyously free to soar up to heaven for a time Before returning to earth in new bodies For our new lives of love and utter delight.
