Poem: and there's / so much love

i let go
and its
all right
and i keep
letting go

after i
grab on
tight
i remember
i let go

because
everything
i worried
about
wasn't true
or what
i thought
it was

and there's
so much love
as much
as light
as much
as rain
in every thing
everywhere

when i stop
and surrender
time goes
away
and i'm
back in the
now loving
everyone
everything
and its OK

it doesn't
matter
what i
got or
what i think
i lost

all that
matters is
i'm here
in the now
ready to love
some more

I love this. Being in the now is the best. Saves one from discontent. Nice structure too.

Thank you for your feedback! Being willing like this, I think it is the only way I can parole myself the prison of self. Bodhicitta is like a banana peel to ego ... that kind of loving provides rewards that are potentially far beyond what narrow ego or self can possibly promise. The rewards of Bodhicitta are so potentially amazing, sometimes the ego can even be conned into wanting it too. LOL
