Shield of Joy
Feb 05, 2024Sometimes the chaos
Is bigger than us.
It swirls through
Disrupting our peace.
What new initiation
Is this?
The sins arrive to the party:
Envy, self-loathing, jealousy, hate.
Why have they come
To this sacred space?
Perhaps they, too
Want to feel at home.
My heart has known pain.
Your heart has too.
But, at the very bottom,
Of our deep ocean of night,
I remember you.
I remember I have always loved you.
Joy rises again.
To transform our suffering.
Let’s make it a ritual.
Our Shield of Joy.
Just in case we have
Any more unruly visitors.
