A quiet heart

 What are those words
dancing at the fringes of understanding
longing to be recognised as truth?

Turning them from elusive ideas
floating in the air
to words appearing
on a page
with substantial meaning.

Give yourself time to listen
to hear
it is all being gifted to you.
Give yourself space to hear
to understand
to know that these words
this understanding
dwell deep in your heart
not coming from an external source.

Knowingness comes from quiet,
peacefulness, space, openness,
willingness to listen.
Knowingness is met only in
the awakened moment
only now
it’s qualities are peace,
quiet, certainty, wholeness.

Let in those words
dancing at the fringes of understanding
seemingly external yet
rising from a quiet heart.
