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: ▼ |

O Lord,

God's Ocean of Might
Surges casting onto its shores
The Pearls of Wisdom
The Lord of Humanity
Is God's Manifestation
The tears shed by God's lovers
Are their companions
The groans uttered by
the Seekers their comforters
Food of the faithful
Their own hearts' fragments

The crisp evening air
awakens the desire
for God's healing words.
Out of the darkness of chaos
flee the followers
of light.
The speech of the Friend
rouses the ability
to sacrifice.
From the heavens of mercy
pour the showers
of divine love.
The crisp evening air
ignites desire
to see the beauty of God.
Out of the night's separation
knowledge of self
is gained.
The voices of the friends
engenders power
to go beyond insistent self.

A crystal blooms
in God's ocean of love,
its nine perfect leaves

while its nineteen petals
echo the names of God.
Rainbows of light
converge in unity,
showing divine might
upon humanity.
Clouds of mercy
conceal the Almighty,
while rays of glory
reveal God's chosen one.
Perfection's voice
questions dogmatic faith,
and sovereignty's speech
echoes spirituality.
Splendor's shadow
falls over humanity,
revealing the ... [Read more] Feast Meditation December 31, 2018 at 8:01pm Feast Meditation
