My Search

I

Into the mystic realm,
I let my mind take flight,
Over stone strewn highways,
I search the endless night.

I was the Wanderer,
Looking for a goal,
And the Seeker,
Searching for my soul.

I walked the roads of idle fancy,
Paths of material delight,
Stumbling over stones of vain imaginings,
In my search for the light.

A voice deep within me cried:
"Here doesn't lay your goal,
Upon these darkened pathways,
You'll never find your sou."

II

Into the mystic realm,
Again my mind took flight,
Over well traveled highways,
I search the misty twilight.

I was a Seeer,
Seeking an unknown goal,
And a Stranger,
To my own soul.

In this realm of half-light,
I strolled the roads of tradition,
Picking my way carefully,
Through the shadows of superstition.

Still from within came the cry:
"Not in this realm is your goal,
Upon these half-lit pathways,
You'll never find your soul"

III

Into the mystic realm,
Again I took flight,
And walked the paths,
Where God has shed His light.

I walked the hallowed highways,
Trod by the Prophets of old,
Strolled the ancient paths,
Strewn with nuggets of pure gold.

This is the wondrous realm,
Where all paths become one,
This is the glorious land,
Illuminated by God's sun.

Through the Word of God,
I have found my soul,
In the Messenger for this age,
I have found my goal.

Body and Soul

Body and Soul Inexorable I stand split between extremes. Ego obstinately attached to the physical plain. Spirit unalterably attracted to Divinity. Inexorable I stand split between extremes. Body stubbornly locked to willful habit. Soul unyielding seeking the Beloved. Inexorable I stand split between extremes. One not to be persuaded by prayer. One to be persuaded by prayer. Where is the key to unlock this impasse? {dropnote:"Poet's N... [Read more]
Consultation: Two Poems
January 13, 2019 at 11:05pm
Consultation: Poem One Consultation is a light! Is it more than a clash of ideas? A means of discovering what is right. Light of God's new age. Consultation guides the way to truth! Guides the path through the clash of wills. The torch that illumines the night of fear; the Way to solve the planet's ills. To God's followers it is a light. Truth emerges from the clash of wills. Consultation is the source of good and well being! Is it a buffer in the clash of force?... [Read more]
The Word: To The Sacred Scriptures Revealed by Baha'u'llah

The Word: To The Sacred Scriptures Revealed by Baha'u'llah There is Power in the Word! Power to create A new world out of the ashes of the old; To bring order out of chaos. There is Love in the Word! Love that binds One heart to another; That unites the human race. There is Peace in the Word! Peace that passes all understanding; That creates a world free of war, With citizens free of fear. There is Justice in the Word! Justice which is God's best beloved; Al... [Read more]
