The Limitless Pool

​I lie on the bank, daydreaming
How I got here I do not know
But the sun is warm and the water is cool.
 
More than just cool, the water’s alive,
Swift-purposeful, undriven by force,
Unstoppable, smooth and determined.
 
At the shoreline I effortlessly lie
Though it feels like I now am centered
In a vibrant pool of no limit.
 
Dipping my hand in the water to taste,
I find it is sweet
More like food than like drink
 
I thought myself to be all alone
No noise to disturb my solitude
No companion to share my peace
 
The dream took a turn unexpected
No longer alone, everything became company
Oneness and Allness the theme
 
Oneness reached out in perfection
From the center of the limitless pool
To all of the edges on every side.
 
Love and Life flowed powerfully forth
Gracious gifts, magnificent bequests
To me and all of creation
 
No longer do I dream for it’s real
As long as I stay in the flow
I’m here, it is now, I’m connected
To the All and the limitless pool.
