The Flow Of Consciousness Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

I have seen liquid consciousness with my eyes
As I walked through the garden of life
I saw thousands of flowers blooming
Some yellow, red, pink, white and so on and so forth
It was an ordinary sight to the uninitiated
But to me it was the river of consciousness
Flowing in the garden of life

I looked up the sky
I saw a beautiful clear sky
And my heart filled with joy
It was a spectacle to watch
The nothingness of the clear blue sky
It was the river of consciousness
Flowing in the garden of life

I looked into her eyes
And my heart melted
Not even words
Could describe how I felt
Her smile
Was made for my dreams
It was the river of consciousness
Flowing in the garden of life

I have tasted so many dishes
Even side dishes
All too palatable
Satisfying to my being
It was the river of consciousness
Flowing in the garden of life

I looked deep into my heart
At first I saw nothing but Silence and emptiness
I could not understand
I was close to tears
Until the Silence started to speak
And the empty cup of my heart was filled with Love
Rivers of joy washed through the shores of my heart
I found peace inside the emptiness of my existence
I found my home inside the walls of consciousness
I was inside the ocean of consciousness
And everything was inside me
I was consciousness
And I was flowing in the garden of eternity
