I prayed to God and asked him
Where I could find
A familiar treasure
Called the peace of mind
God looked at me
With his usual calm face
Here was yet another mortal
Seeking his solace
He placed his hand on my head
While whispering a hymn
That sounded to me
Akin to words sublime
With a new outlook
I felt innately cleansed
The mind was calmer
And no more tensed
I woke up from this dream
Amidst the sound of chirping birds
Alas! However hard I tried
I couldn’t remember his words
Maybe he didn’t say a thing
Was it just his presence?
That made me realise
Bliss as being life’s essence
And to Thank HIM again
I went down on my knees
At last my mind had found
Its invaluable missing ‘piece’!

I’m so glad
About this wonderful dream that you had
and found that shard of silence
where you could revert to your innocence
and feel His presence
in your soul and conscience
often we chase the notion
that ‘peace of mind’ is a thing in motion
and all we have to do
is secure our financial situation
and harness the damned peace into our possession
but the truth is so simple
that it is so complicated to comprehend
you see, a wise man can find this ‘peace of mind’
even in tattered clothes and empty hand
while the emperor…sleepless nights he spends
even when sitting on mines of oil and diamonds
I suppose the day you wake up
And realize that your heart is filled with elation,
Not because of a raise or a promotion
but because of the birds and their commotion
you have truly felt Him,
and ‘peace of mind’ is no longer a dream in anticipation
@Sumana: Wow!!!
You make your reviews so interesting
That’s why its you, I end up entrusting
it seems quite trivial to expect
