A Conscious Rendition

The 411

By Katherine CunninghamPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

‘Twas the Now before Consciousness.

When all through the universe,

not a soul was aware,

Especially the obverse.

All moments filled with love and care,

But humans all trapped by their ego with fear.

The children full of freedom, imagination, and no hate in their heads,

While lack of love from the world constantly builds their egoic walls instead.

Now is every moment, no past or future exists,

Settle your thoughts, don’t let them control you with conflicts.

When unloving thoughts begin to arise;

listen, but don’t judge, believing in The Love is more wise.

Mindful Meditation disappears the ego, conquered with loving consciousness,

All is Here, All is Now; Doing and Being is the Compass.

The reflections everywhere/one/thing you see,

Notice unhappiness in the mirror before you create hate that you perceive.

“Polish your mirror” is a constant life endeavor,

Pointing fingers keeps you unhappy forever.

Blaming All—instead of standing in your perception stew,

Instead Cook something up that you want to manifest; be clear, and pursue!

More rapid than paint drying, you are able to create,

The feelings you want to feel, and erase fearful hate!

Now, Here! Now, happy! Now thankful and grateful!

On freedom, on love! All Life we should be playful!

Through compassion and accepting, low thoughts don’t come at all,

‘Now’ dashed away the indecisiveness brawl.

All words unnecessary, love is communicated on a silent level,

In this moment we All are able to revel.

And expanding one’s consciousness, the universe follows

Complete with zero comparisons, no longer hallow.

All spring to the Here, to the Now and create your merry,

Positive Self Affirmations attract what you desire, And “hate” in the universe is contrary.

All hear the universe as it exclaims “happy moments to all and to all a grateful life to reclaim!”
