I do not want to follow clues,
to stumble on invented truths.
Instead I rather close my eyes,
see what feels real from deep inside,
have goosebumps rise to touch the sky,
as answers form and satisfy.
My inner desires will show
a secure light that shines and glows.
Unwanted doubts will fall and kneel,
as hidden wants all become real,
receive a gift that overflows,
to share with all so knowledge grows.
Await for bright light to expand,
see once closed eyes now understand.
Embrace a blissful unity,
a world full of divinity.
Sparkles of love twinkle and shine,
as souls and bodies are aligned.
– Grace Y. Estevez – Reddy

“I do not want to follow clues,

The part I just quoted really stands out for me. I love the lines. I am a fan of discovering things for myself rather than just accepting “invented truths”.
It’s true that finding out things for oneself involves plenty of falling and rising but it’s a colorful adventure.
Deep words there, Grace. Keep it up.
I am so delighted to hear that you enjoyed it, Benjamin. It truly is a colorful adventure. Thank you so much. πππ

A great poem, Grace. True knowledge lays hidden in yourself. You just have to listen.
Absolutely. Thanks so much.π
Yes, embrace a blissful unity, the integrity of self.
Absolutely. π
“…see once closed eyes now understand…” This jumped out at me. So often we can’t find our way simply because our own eyes are shut tightly. Learning to open them and see what’s around (and inside) us takes courage. You’ve served up a healthy dollop o’ wisdom here as always, Grace! π
Thank you so very much, dear Mike. Iβm so glad you enjoyed it. πππ

Great piece this. I love it π. πππ Thanks for the poem.
Happy you enjoyed. Thanks so much.π
I find that the wind over the mountains, or in the trees, or the sound of the waves, speaks to my solitude more sense and peace than the voices of everyday.
I do not know if a sense of peace precedes, or comes from, the introspection that this facilitates. Maybe both.
Wonderful perception. I feel that the sounds of nature brings me the peace I need to listen profoundly to the inner voices. So for me the peace definitely precedes. Thanks so much for sharing your view.π
Your poems are always so creative and inspiring! I loved this one so much. Really meaningful and deepππ
Thanks so much, Jan.π
