OK. This is a Fabulous Free Verse so no meter writing is required. You are off the hook.
This is a very deep verse. I think you mean that we should surrender to our spirit and let it guide us. I like the following lines:
Then, drink deeply
from the calm waters
of your lifestream
and live into your
fullest and highest abilities.
This is why I'm learning how to write poetry.
Well done.

The author's words are engaging, interesting, clear and creative. I really
liked the definition of surrender conveyed in the author's words. The
book you chose is from a favorite author of mine. The poem flows and
connects well. The artwork is perfect. Have a great day!....Maria

Comment from Mary Vigasin
This is a well written poem with an excellent message to those of us who are bound by material things or stuck in our own dogmas and not exploring paths that will lead to other views.
I enjoyed the read and its message.
Regards,
Mary

Interesting how you started and ended with that quote. I never read "Sacred Contracts." It sounds like it explores spirituality in an ecumenical manner. Was it a good book? What did you think? I guess you gave us a good summary in your poem.

Yes I have found that the book provided much incite onto paths to help one go deep into the philosophy of what our reason for our Beingness. Caroline Myss has written many sound books about our faith and journey on this earth plane.

There's a Christian song that was used many times when I was a young Christian called "I surrender all" at least the message was a really good one and the theme is still as fresh as it was then, God once responded to a question I proffered to Him. I asked,"What do you want me to do?" The reply was. "Find a hole and fill it." Two weeks later a member of the church cleaning team died, I still serve on the cleaning team, all these years down the track.Well done, great post, blessings Roy

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written free verse poem about the sacred contracts we make with our master who is the higher entity in our lives. We surrender and follow the rules and commands.
