A Little Bit of Bliss

Beneath the surface disturbances
that never really cease is a place
of inner peace. It's as if a wisdom
voice whispers, "All is well,"
and I can feel the truth of it,
the settling and openness, the love
that seems to come from nowhere
to rest inside my core. No matter
how scattered I am when I begin
my meditation, I somehow make
the journey from there to here,
from that to this, leaving me
light-kissed and receptive to
a little bit of bliss.
