A Self Within The Self

A Self Within The Self

A Poem by Carol Phelan Aebby

        "A Self Within The Self"

There is an alive self within the self 

That hears the music and the voice of fire; 

The secrets of an oak tree; define them

And converse with the chirping of a bird; 

Will a flower to bloom, observe its growth

In harmony with the creative Mind... 

There's a self within the self that can see,                         

Feel a person without physical touch;

Fly to worlds, hear the universe; embrace    

All senses that feel the rhythm of the Earth;

Taste nectar of love and smile, knowing Souls.

 

A self within the self that knows formulas  

And forms of worlds we left in the life's cycle;  

A history of souls to be revealed  

In exoteric ways to all that feels 

The warmth of the Human Race, and the earth 

Beneath the feet; to those whose hearts pump grace,

Pulsating holiness... for Love is you!

I somehow feel that poets have a secret passage to this self within the self which you talk about.
You've taken such a beautiful summation of the beauty of one's mind and soul.. the power they hold and the places they can take us
great piece Carol..remarkable

A self within the self
This was kind of a very deep write. I liked how you phrased it .
I loved the given stanza,

There's a self within the self that can
see,
Feel a person without physical touch;
Fly to worlds, hear the universe; embrace
All senses that feel the rhythm of the Earth;

A wonderfully weaved peace of poetry.

Spidey. ...
