Spiritual Vibes #WDYS #TankaTuesday

Spiritual Vibes

I
walked
with my muse
last night, drowsy
but awake, eager
to see where she takes me.
She took me into the land
full of ethereal beauty,
brimming with spiritual silence –
an offer to look within, to forgive.

The silence percolated within me.
A gossamer veil caressed my face
my spirit soared to touch the vibes
emitted by pagoda.
Twenty steps I climbed,
each one cleansed my heart
divine power
pulled me in.
A new
dawn.

Thanks to Sadje for the inspiration #Whatdoyousee – 326

Thanks to Colleen and Yvette for the inspiration to write syllabic poetry. The challenge this week is to “focus on the idea of cleansing. You can choose to go with purification or atonement, if you’d like. Find a syllabic poetry form that works for you, and let your inspiration flow.” 

I have written a double Etheree. 

An Etheree is a type of poem which consists of 10 lines of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 syllables. Etheree can also be reversed and written 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. So it is called a double Etheree.

Thank you for reading my poetry. For more poetry, hang out with  Hues Of Hope

  1. Beautiful, Balroop. When I lived in Japan, I climbed steps such as these to reach the “spiritual silence.” ❤️

  2. ♥️ Balroop, what a lovely piece of meditative poetry. It captures that ‘liminal space’ – the bridge between wakefulness and sleep, where the mind is most open to spiritual imagery🙌

  3. Balroop, there is such beauty and serenity in this poem, my soul feels uplifted upon reading your words. My son recently returned from travelling around Japan and the visit to the temples there had a profound effect on him.

    1. Thank you for sharing the effects of a visit to such serene places, Annika. I‘be tried to capture the same in my own humble way. I am glad my words are reaching out to touch your soul. 🙏
