Jesus Mantra Poem by Uriah Hamilton

Jesus Mantra

Rating: 4.6


When I forget to breathe my Jesus mantra,
When the sweet scent of fragrant incense fades,
When the flame from votive candles is quenched;
Everything in my world goes wrong,
I play dissonant notes
To the most unhappy songs,
I walk out into the moonlight and it fails to shimmer
In a lovely woman’s hair,
I grow tired and sad with a heart of despair.

There's alot to be said about 'connection' to Source. It keeps us anchored and balanced. You say alot here, Uriah - and quite powerfully. Linda
