Bill Baker Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Let Your Soul Be Seen

I cannot see the essence of thee,
Yet in thy deepest mystery lies reality.
Not with my eyes but with my heart I see,
Truth is inside of me.

The chaos of this illusionary life is blinding,
Yet still unwinding.
Within my inner solitude, I could be finding,
My authentic self is revealing, reminding.

All peace is in wholeness and unity,
Not in living as the illusionary me.
I need to change what others see,
Let my spirit truly be.

A spiritual observer in a physical state,
With unlimited powers to create.
To reveal your true self is Truth’s mandate,
Allowing harmony to escalate.

Just telling others what they want to be told,
It’s not your giving, they’re just being consoled.
Speak the truth, speak up, be bold.
Or the fate of our world will be darkness and cold.

Bill Baker August 18, 2025 at 2:09 PM Yep, it can have its downside, if not directly from God. Thanks for the visits and comments my friend. Bill

Daniel Henry Rodgers August 16, 2025 at 9:30 AM Hello Bill, what an amazing spiritual compass, steady, piercing, and full of grace. I felt like I was walking alongside you through the fog of illusion, watching you carve a path toward truth with each verse. That final stanza especially hit deep, the difference between consoling and truly giving. Truth isn’t always easy, but it’s always necessary. Blessings, Bill, Daniel Bill Baker August 16, 2025 at 9:45 PM Thanks for the revealing comments and the continued support of my poetry, Daniel. Health and happiness to you, my dear friend. Bill
