Poem -

Thou shalt be

Thou shalt be

Do not be fooled 
The universe is unfolding
In a way that you do not know 
For there is far greater than you 
A knowing or universal intellect 
Inscribed into the book of humanity 
Thou shalt be 

In the silent moments 
When you are at rest 
Listen to the trees shuffling 
Breathing and heaving 
Pumping oxygen into the world 
Absorbing the suffering 
Thou shalt be 

What is your name 
Where are you from 
How do you come to be here 
Who are your ancestors 
Why do you exist 
Absorbing the suffering 
Thou shalt be

While you were reading this I was reading yours,
synchronicity in play.
The universe speaks in ways we do not always know.
Thou shalt be my friend Tony;
Best from JAi :)

Hey Mr T you are phenomenal writer
That Apricot poem brings me so much
warmth you are a truly a feeling poet,
Thou shalt be my poet friend in the
techno universe that I shall treasure.

I'm a poet that's my excuse
Luv from this guy called JAi :)

Every year there is the writers festival festival in
Ubud, Bali
We can meet there all of us friends from
Cosmo,
We can submit a manuscript
Bali is magnificent
Ubud is cultural centre
The place is paradise
Good food and cheap
