The Inner Guide

From job to job and from place to place

Something keeps you moving in life,

The life for you is an endless race

And for better always you strive.

A beast has a forest, a fish has a sea,

And a bird has the bottomless sky

But what makes you wander? what prompts you to seek

Hidden quest you cannot satisfy?

Within you it always was

Bright like the sun

And gentle like the rain

From depth of heart

It sweetly calls:

Chase for the truth

That you can attain!

But how to find it? where to start?

The directions are tricky to guess:

The ancient writings have fallen apart

And the paths have been lost in the grass...

And leaving at peace all confusion of Past

You are blazing your own trail anew

For there is a guide you rely on and trust

Very loving and loyal to you:

Within you it always was

Bright like the sun

And gentle like the rain

From depth of heart

It sweetly calls:

Chase for the truth

That you can attain!

-- Alla Levitan
