With God in his heart
And the being illumined
With His ethereal Light
The mystic keeps surging ahead
Courageous and smiling
Battling the odds
Posed in his path
And overcoming them
With stoic steadfastness.
Life offers new vistas
And a new purpose
Prose and verse
Mingle with harmony
And hope shines resplendent
Like never before.
It is a conquest of the self
Which means everything
To the soul
In its search for sublimation
As one with the Perfect One.
