POESY: DAWN IT IS

Dawn it is

♧♧♧♧♧♧

Wake up to the light within 

That shines in all undimmed. 

Know thyself to be pure, divine, 

And all else to be so as well. 

The real man is the real God, 

All else is bosh, all else is nought.

Desire doth fuel the world around 

But be thou free of it. 

It binds one to the unreal self 

That is fraught with misery, pain.

Cast off thou all such dross and stand 

In the noonshine of love and light 

That fetters sunder and make thee free,

And still thy roving, roving soul,

Oh, never to stray again!
