Selected Poetry of Nirmala

why fear this moment...

	why fear this moment
	when no thoughts come
	at last I lie naked
	in the arms of experience

why fear this moment
when no words come
at last I find rest
in the lap of silence

	why fear this moment
	when love finds itself alone
	at last I am embraced
	by infinity itself

why fear this moment
when judgment falls away
at last my defenses
fail to keep intimacy at bay

	why fear this moment
	when hope is lost
	at last my foolish dreams
	are surrendered to perfection
