A Journey to Soul — a poem

We laud self sufficiency
But learn it belongs
To the sphere of ego and
Is related to adolescence
We cherish childhood yet
Have to learn we need to
Save ourselves and
Must be responsible

We learn true growth
Is a spiritual action
And means to surrender
To the Beloved, and look
To the one who sent us here
In everything we do, we
Recognise it is all God’s work

Finally…….
We learn the inner journey
To the root of the root
Of the Self is everything
That matters, our very
Reason for being, for
Coming to this place at all
