9. At last I shall listen
My past is heavy withThe lifeless
Meaning.
A frightened thought
My fast-approaching future
Is.
I have the body and soul
Of hope completely in my
Thoughts.
I shout at the top of my lungs.
My soul embodies the weight of
Despair.
At last I am now learning the art of listening
To God’s
Voice.
“Son, in your soulful silence is
My fruitful message,
My All.”
Sri Chinmoy, The Dance of Life, part 1, Aum Press, Puerto Rico, 1973
