Epiphany Poem by leonard daranjo

Epiphany



I am different now
Older and more mature
I have imbibed the essence of life
And let it speak in a tongue
That is universal, ageless
Wordless and pure
Powerful, pristine and prejudicially free
For this very reason, I am more accepted
For this very reason, I am more accepting
For this very reason, I am more loving
For this very reason, I am more tolerant
For this very reason, I am more selfless
For this very reason, I am more empathetic
All the good things I want for myself
I want for everybody else
I want that all good things that happen to me
Should happen to everybody else
How I can I be satisfied with plenty to eat
When hunger is rampant and despair is rife
How can I be filled with great happiness
When sorrow is abounding and pain reigns supreme
The effects of joy can only be felt
When it is transcendental and universally shared
Bliss, divine bliss, is a seed deeply embedded
And is the birthright of every living being
Given the right encouragement
It will certainly sprout
Given the right nutrition
It will certainly grow
Given the right space
It will certainly spread
Given the right scope
It will certainly change
All that is selfish
And devoid of hope
