The Holy Dust of Creation's Seed Sown

Born from this ancient dust of creation's seed sown now so true, Whilst sparkling inside a mystical divine light on this dark night, I’m nourished from the living waters—the oceans deep and blue. Majestic wings rise high in the waves basking in Heaven’s light, Crowning the blest halo golden ring around this angel very dear, Whilst I kiss warmly the salt of the deep oceans stirring at night. Spiced now in a seabed, a rainbow’s gem shineth pure so clear, That a traveler in this radiant world of delight knows real love Is what we all seek as sparkling diamonds now appear so near. Where the rivers flow down a mountain’s verdant slope because There, in the highs and lows of these rivers, tears soak the Earth, Falling and rising from the dust, ashes are memories of what was. I have abounding faith in this life’s bond as Nature begins her rebirth, Eclipsed by a peerless beauty inside, wild passions grown now strong. A liquid sphere appears in our mortal lives reaching its point of girth. In the cerulean oceans mystic gulls cry deep echoes bringing us along. We find peace kneeling as a psychic mantel covers our thoughts pure, As that special circle of brilliance radiates within life’s treat so strong. By God’s hand the ancient dust of creation’s seed is with us to assure, Mankind’s perpetuity on Earth as part of His most holy divine vision. Only God knows mankind’s destiny rests in His divine hands for sure. The ancient dust of creation’s seed is part of God’s omnipotent precision, For He’s the one who shall guide us all heavenward by His final decision.
