Satyananda's Poetry

Five shorties

1.

All my proud plans
came to nothing.
Empty, oh Lord.
I'm here,
awaiting your instructions.

2.

Deeper, even deeper - sinking.
Not knowing a single thing.
Facing pain and sorrow.
Irresistable movement,
home.

3.

My hands were full of tools.
They all broke,
one by one.
Emptyhanded, oh Lord,
I see your face.

4.

Today I heard your voice,
really heard.
For the first time.
I'm astonished.
You!

5.

Writing poems,
not being useful.
The words seek me out.
What to do?
No choice!
