PEBBLES

Mountains rising as echoes in the soul
fueling phantoms, flaming within one's heart
vision's granules collect inside mind's bowl
forming little stones in each sensory part
stirring celestial sands making one whole
feeling illumined drifts shine truths they impart
becoming heaven's glass for one's inner sight
ethereal nuggets bringing spirit light.

Turning into lucid chunks mind sees as stars
slivery seeds blooming insight's flower
life finding jewels is full of many mars
tasting from love's well of healing power
sorrow's grit at last washed from all one's scars
pulse's boulders change into passion's tower
hate's granite chunks erode and fall away
marble despair no longer rules each day.
