As Decreed
On this old adage, let's ponder
'Absence makes the heart grow fonder'
So when we feel from God distance
Know He’s within and not yonder
We look to God for assistance
But ego offers resistance
So we feel separate from source
Not quite aligned with existence
When we feel stirrings of remorse
For our wayward thoughts and deeds coarse
Tremulous heart for God's grace pines
'Tis then soul and darkness divorce
When head and heart with love aligns
We play our role as God assigns
Fears and desires in time recede
His light within finally shines
Love and light as our sturdy steed
All we do is follow it's lead
Boundaries blur, nodes within stir
We become God’s light, as decreed
