In The Cave Of My Heart

From the nothingness of cosmic darkness,
You appeared for a moment,
And smiled.

I was so stunned and ecstatic,
By the vision of your dark blue form,
Merging into the darkness again.

But the smile lingered on in space and time,
The promise of happiness,
A joy yet to be discovered.

Tears flow from my eyes in gratitude and love,
The knowingness of a divine legacy,
That I carry in my heart.

For the world you are Shiva the Greatest Yogi,
The meditative God who has no beginning and no end,
Shiva the annihilator, the cosmic dancer from whom everything originates and dissolves.

But for me you are my deepest Self, enshrined in the quiet cave of my heart.
