the sleeping me

The little me
sleeps and schemes
projecting illusive
dreams,
dancing with maya
and avoiding the fire
that could wipe it's karma
clean.
And the soul sits
in prayerful pose
waiting to be
seen,
smiling gently
at sleeping me
seduced by how
it seems.

beautiful poem... subtle and soft as a prayer...

your blog is great... i'll surely stop back another day for a look-see again.

I like the music, your blog and the way that you write.... Great blog. I connected to you through Shadow's blog.

The dancing, fire and karma part of this was very interesting to read.

Best regards,
Tom Bailey
