The Light Within

In the gold

is a bag of gold

and lo and behold

I am told

it’s always there

abundance flows

and he who believes

is she who knows

and in this light and all around

there is gold dust to be found.

And where you seek is in your heart

and where you dwell is within

and there within,

in your heart centre,

is the one, your life mentor.

So go within and there is gold

and spread the precious dust you find

to all around

and leave behind

anything that no longer is

the essence of the way you feel

bring yourself to the well

and presently she who is

is she who dwells

and here you are happily

being yourself and being free.

The gold, it’s true, is inside you,

the well it sits within,

so draw your life’s flow from the bubbling stream

and light will shine

and leaves will gleam

and flowers are the gifts for you,

petals soft and colours rich

this is the way of Nature’s gifts.

Bring yourself the gems there are

and share the light from every star

and live the way your heart knows true

so being yourself is healing you.
