A Start

Lately I've been drawn to write poetry again. Maybe it's my mind starting to recover from hypoxia now that I'm sleeping with a CPAP. Usually I keep my poems private but for some reason I just needed to share this one.

I was reading "Eat, Pray, Love" when I wrote it and it is in some ways in reaction to the book. it's funny, the book irritates me in so many ways but I'm still reading it. i must be getting something out of it.

A path to God
Is a Word well written
Is a step taken mindfully
Is a heart that loves well
A path to God
Is the touch of a kind lover
Is the laughter of a true friend
Is the tear shed for you by another
A path to God
Is a note sustained and ringing true
Is a sight that lights the mind afire
Is the scent that wipes misery away
A path to God
Is the knowledge that you are blessed
Is the happiness in cup of tea
Is the love you give to yourself and others
Walk any path, any Way,
with loving intention and compassionate heart
And at the end; there God will be.

My thanks to all who have given me paths to God and I wish you well on your journey. Send this on if it so pleases you.
