Ugly…Duckling…

Ignorance will need energy from Ignorance

To create Friction;

Until it’s chaffed & bled out of Attention

Until Awareness Blooms Songs of

Beloved’s Presence…

Use Everything to Serve you, Uplift you

For it’s only in manure soil

Trees with Flowers Bloom

Through Stories woven for children’s

We’ve Embedded lessons of life

Yet in our Ignorance, We’ve forgotten…

What Is It, “To Be A Child!”

For Childlikeness is Akin to Being Full

Yet Empty…

To be Simple As Gods Kiss!

To reap the lesson after the fodder of pain

Too has dried in its weep

For what is to be an “Ugly-duckling”

Not much about a spectrum of being seen

As Black amongst yellows

But more about Essence of Simply Being; “Truthful to One’s-Innermost”

To let go of ignorance to be a clone

When one stops feeding ignorant minds

Creativity within blooms & smiles

Each to his own journey….

Until pain that once made you bleed

Serves; In The Lessons of its Learning’s

Maybe there’s An Ugly Duckling

In each of us, Yet Why we’ve labelled

It Ugly Or Beautiful….

For Beingness Never Gives A Dime

For What’s Perceived by the eyes

So Give…What You’ve Come To Give…

Let Ignorant minds bury themselves in their Own-Conditoning

While Your Every Choice;

Shall Re-write Destiny!

.

This Energy & Force of Love Of Coco,

Has Embraced & Carried me through some of my most gruelling & darkest-times of chronic pain

At times images of paintings painted back in college days, resurface, yet we outgrow each time in heart & creative language
