Find Freedom - a poem by Pavan Keetley, Australia

Find Freedom

Freedom seems a glittering prize
Somewhere far out beyond our eyes
Yet close your eyes within and see
Your Freedom’s there, completely free

True Freedom is an inside job
When there is nothing that can rob
You of the Joy each moment brings
As through your heart your Spirit sings

For Freedom is without that shell
That keeps you in a private hell
Of I and me, and mine and yours
Cut off from Source, from Freedom’s cause

True Freedom is beyond these notions
Beyond torment and emotions
Beyond your concepts and your mind
Yes Freedom's free, and Freedom’s kind

And Freedom has an open heart
She never worries, feels apart
Nor closes off that part in you
Which is Eternal, ever new

In Freedom you’re content to wait
Until that inner voice does state,
Discretion knows the way to go,
And those in Freedom always know

That Freedom has just pure desire
No calls for more, just take us higher
Let go, let Freedom, find Her ways
Let Freedom guide you through your days

Yet Freedom is much more than this
Beyond this world, a state of Bliss
I lift my eyes within to see
That God is looking back at me




Then Freedom is both free and pure
With no attachments to endure
Aversions don’t get in the way
And everything becomes Her Play

Yes Freedom is beyond a doubt,
That state within, that peace without
Without a worry in the World I see,
that God’s in all, and God’s in me

In Freedom then I’m free to live
To love and learn, to pray forgive
To laugh and joy and to delight
To sing and dance, become the Light

Yes Freedom is God realisation
One Self in all - true liberation
Yes Freedom burns Her Light in you
And only Freedom's ever true.

Find Freedom in the quiet hour
Be one with Her, with His great power
Then you’ll be nothing, you’ll be Free
To realise God ~ in Freedom Be.
