Feast of Kamal (Perfection)

Feast of Kamal (Perfection)

I hear the nightingale singing
in the All-Highest Paradise,
the excellence of his song reverberating
through the open gate
and into the world of mater.

I inhale the perfume of perfection
wafting from the tree of life
and across the garden
to the table that has been prepared
by the hand of All Glorious Lord.

I raise my voice in praise,
as I watch humanity--
its maturity achieved--
approach the entrance
to the Kingdom of God.
