Mindless we walk about

Souls crying out for warmth.

Kept apart by fear of the pain

When the warmth so needed departs.

Courage to try again

To warm the soul,

To keep it from its death.

Ego’s boundary melting into the surround

Love’s energy suffusing.

Eternal life, flickering

Warming others yet self.

Mystery of process, the

Sweetness in the bitter taste of loving.
