God’s sole wish

We are still and yet life flows on,
borne by thought, causation desire,
to feel the warmth of love at dawn,
purged in heart, in God’s sacred fire.

Yet if all is one and we’re that,
all forms being but illusion,
where then is the need for combat,
save by egos in delusion?

Enriched by love, light of Self shines,
mirroring God’s luminescence,
rapture rises, love for love pines,
bliss beats throb as our quintessence.

That we’re God’s child, in stillness see ~
All He seeks is we be as He
