SKY BLUE LOTUS

[Guest guest]

SKY BLUE LOTUS

 

Bhagavan, like a Sapphire brilliant bright,

My sky blue lotus, nestling deep at heart

Lies bound, its calyx tightly wrapped, pray start

Its unfolding by fire.Ignite pure light

To waken Love: dispel soul's dark night

Of ignorance by white rays, beamed to dart

To heart's core, biding in her caverned part.

Self's hiding behind a veil, reveal her might!

 

Sky blue lotus rooted in mire so rife,

Flowers in the pure waters of your space,

She needs help, sent from ever boundless grace.

The well honed blade of your pruning knife

Cuts weeds, so she can blossom in her place,

To adorn the altar of your Temple, Life!
