The Karmic Clock

we begin at the bottom

of the heavy pendulum

thoughts and deeds

take so long to return

.

but soon you will realise

as you begin the climb

the faster the clock ticks

and the sooner it chimes

.

so quickly that you may

suddenly change your mind

scared of what’s higher

and what you may find

.

but if you can keep

yourself ever so still

find the calm within you

choose peace over thrills

.

soon you will realise

sitting with time

that karma expires

as you balance your mind

.

your frequency rises

close to that chime

and there it’s revealed

all you ever longed to find
