Devotional Poetry 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. Poet's Note: ▼ |

C reating a bubbling cauldron on the verge of overflowing into
A holocaust of misunderstanding and fear.
T he fruits of freedom engender arguments concerning its meaning.

Lord, help me
to life my life
just one day at a time.

Lord, help me
To be free
of vain imaginations,
that come to me
in times of personal conflagrations
causing me consternation;
vain imaginations
that confirm low self-esteem,
Lord, help me
to life my life
without excess strife;
to exorcise all all prejudices
that complicates my life
and generates interpersonal strife;
to accept the unchangeable,
to alter the changeable,

I
Adrift in the darkness of space,
I am caught
in the gravity fields of two different stars,
each pulling at me from opposite directions.
II
After
aeons of struggle,
I release my attachment
to the elder star.
III
Moving toward the younger star,
I listen to its song.
It is the same song,
which Christ--
the older star was singing.
IV
Reaching out,
I embrace Baha'u'llah:
my Lord and Savior.
