Easter Sunday

(Notes: 1. Ancient esoteric teachings state that "The Christ" is the divine blueprint for the man imaged in the likeness of God. This is the divine destiny for each soul that walks the path of life. 2. This is the final destiny of all men of goodwill, and belongs to our collective humanity, regardless of spiritual affiliation. 3. "The Christ" bestowal is for all mankind and is all-inclusive. 4. This poem is my personal reflection of that harmony; and is not meant to be a religious discourse. My apologies to those who think that I am evangelising. That's not my intention. Thank you.) -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- An Easter song to tell the world That Love lives strong in joyous swirls. A brand new sphere with promise bright; From darkness here to realms of light. A happy morn with wondrous sight; Now comes the dawn: glorious, sure light! Round stone slab rolled, the tomb empty; Laid linen folds for faith to see. -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- The Christ once slain in sure fashion, From death's domain: resurrection! The empty tomb with folded sheets, Just like a womb where new life greets. Lone angel waits, glad tidings dwell; Here at tomb's gate, pious women tell. The women tell of empty earth; The Christ now dwells in Love's re-birth. -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- The stone slab moved so we can see The hollow groove, unmasked empty. A promised plan: beyond fable, From Son of Man, grand miracle. A grandeur shown for select few: The Christ made known in glorious hues. The Christ once slain in sure fashion, From death's domain: resurrection! -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Christ is risen to set us free; From death's prison, from misery. How do we know that this is true? Love and truth show what Spirit cues. The facts don't lie on this account; The Christ did die upon that mount. Now trumpets blast for The Christ lives A sacred trust, for God forgives. -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- The Christ Living beyond death's veil; Light undying as Love prevails. Man is made whole in mind and heart; A brand new soul that lives Love's art. Grace now uplifts, death and sin die; What precious gift, Love and life sigh. This day of grace when Love abides; Truth frees our race from time and tide. -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Today true light shines once again To put things right in message plain. Hence man can live with precious peace For Love now gives true life increase. Thank you dear God for Love and Light; Thank you dear Lord for Grace and sight. The risen Lord calls out to each; To look to God within sure reach. -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- With grace and calm, follow your heart; Love is the balm that helps you start. Go on your way, live night and day With passion play, with Love that stays. Live life path well with wholesome cheer; Love all who dwell on earthly spheres. Let peace abide with ebb and flow; Let joy firm stride in your life's show. -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Our time is brief, our days must end; Go beyond grief, let your soul tend. Our space is small, our act looks vain; Yet fond Love calls to live truth plain. Our life is brief, our moments tint; Just live and breathe, listen Love hints. Our tale must end with death that comes; Around the bend, Love squares all sums! -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- I am the Light that lights the way; Live with clear sight through night and day. I am the Way, life beyond life; Live well each day with faith alive. I am the Truth, the humble gate; Live Love's sure proof to find your fate. I am the Life, the precious gift; Live beyond strife -- The Christ uplifts! -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Look to this day, for life ascends; Live your fond play, see death descend. Look to this earth, for heaven comes; Live your sure birth, see wonders sum. Look to this race, for blessings form; Live your bold trace, see faith's sure norms. Look to this heart as Yeshua said: "Live your best part: Love unafraid." -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- The Christ now calls to one and all; Be beyond gall, rise when you fall. Follow your heart, link mind and soul; Begin and start with action bold. Seek path and choice, seek happy way; Fill poise and voice, live well each day. "Come follow me," The Christ still says, "Now let peace free true life this day." The Christ for all mankind remains To big and small The Kingdom's gain. And for all time, The Christ within Speaks the same rhymes: "Come, let me in." The Son of Man loves all mankind; You know you can; God's Love now finds. Listen, The Word now comes to each; Let Love be heard within fond reach. Your actions preach the tact you take; Love lives fine reach to heal and make. Now act by act, you fashion here The heart you fact as cause marks clear. Here at the end, true message sums: Love works the plan, Love facts outcome. -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Leon Enriquez 20 Apr 2014 (on Easter Sunday) Singapore
