Profoundly Speaking

 

Now I am about to speak,

About things deep and profound;

Would you care to listen,

As I make these sounds.

 

Truth, Reality, Virtue, Vice,

Being, Mindful, Prophetic, Nice;

Good and Bad, Foolish, Wise:

Words reflecting a meaning.

 

Purpose, honor, respectful, kind;

Discriminating, discerning, watchful Mind;

Careful, disciplined, a worthy try,

Intentions show the Way.

 

Yes, No; Here, Now,

Vastness, simplicity, My God, Wow.

Karma, Dharma, Buddha, Tao,

Actions embody intentions.

 

Love and sex, children, commitment;

Family honor, desire, Insistent;

 Lust and war, hatred , resistant;

Come together when pulling apart.

 

Trying to help, serve and heal;

Nurture, teach, reveal;

Strengthen, touch and hear;

Medicine that works.

 

Soul and Spirit, Lord, and God;

Piety, worship, prayer, and song;

Moral, Ethic, Right and wrong;

Transcendent, Imminent, Energy.

 

And of course, the best, highest, Quality;

Vision, Enlighten, so we all can see;

Consciousness, beauty, enjoined with the Supreme;

We are one, one is all,

Amen.
