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.

For The Love of Baha'u'llah For the love of Baha'u'llah! The Army of Light assembles, Beneath the banner of unity. For the love of Baha'u'llah! Whatever the sacrifice necessary, To unite the world, it will be made. For the love of Baha'u'llah! We rise from the warmth of our beds, Intoning the Greatest Name. For the love of Baha'u'llah! We greet the light of dawn, With God's praise on our lips. For the love of Baha'u'lla... [Read more]
If I Had My Way

If I Had My Way If I had my way each religion would accept all other religions a valid. If I had my way the entire planet would follow a single calendar. If I had my way all public prayers would be interdenominational. If I had my way the calendar would be based on a solar day. If I had my way no one, whether animal or human, would be homeless. If I had my way each person would memorize a poem, scripture verse, or prayer. If I had my way all scientific discov... [Read more]
