light that lights all lights

illumination radiance gleaming spectrum
the lightness of being reflected in meditation

karmic invigoration when Newton’s apple rises
above the false gravity of seeming impermanence

cause and effect in cosmic unmeasurable cycles
tantric proportions of spiritual enlightenment

the Buddha seduces the Virgin Mary in foreplay
of heavenly promises and miraculous passion

gleaming brilliance blinds all darkness
when luster emerges from devilish shadows
waiting for providence necessities action
one cannot light a fire without a spark

once ember glows momentum evolves
future and past merge into presence 

suffering of suffering yields epiphanous healing
all chakras open and ready for more

the time will come when you visualize sounds
hear what plays out in your eyes
touch taste and smell the spell of their union
and become one with yourself and the Universe

Shivermetimbers! Your ecstatic state strikes chords of melodic amazement, Kai. I would adore to have a zen such as brilliantly described by you here. Hilarious is Mary being seduced by Buddha. Saturated words are yours, as usual, drip with desire.

Thank you so much for your reply and praise, I appreciate that a lot. I have had a difficult time recently, but things are looking good now. Faith without action does not work and I am reaching much more of a balance. Kind wishes, Kai

Dear Kai, your use of imagery and metaphor is rich, deep, sacred and provocative. Indeed, transcendence above the Earthly ordinary to "become one with yourself and the Universe" can be achieved. Fantastic poem! Warmest wishes my poet friend.. ~Susan

Thank you for your reply and your praise. I appreciate that. Poetry helps to express my emotions and I am getting back into the habit and need of writing. I have had a difficult time recently. Now the challenges are manageable and plans need to be acted upon. Faith combined with actions. Sending you kind wishe, Kai
