A brief, shared shelter

A brief, shared shelter                                                                                      
 
There is a brief, shared shelter available here on earth,
as much as I can gather it around me,
 
a foretaste, a settling down where nothing
pricks or prods, clings or entices, where nothing
 
derails, undermines, crushes or disturbs.
To enter this realm is to let go of the world,
 
to let go of myself and hold to You;
pretend, until I learn, I am not at all the shadows
 
I’ve been taught I am but the eternal,
infinite, holy essence of non-duality.
 
O child of God, the less of you,
the more room for peace and acquiescence.
