Thoughts On Totality
I know--wrong from the start,
for who might dare to seek, to share
a summary of paradise revealed
from just a breath of the divine
whatever that might be.
It has to do with silence--
readiness to listen as
a cup of graciousness is poured
somewhere beyond the world we know,
beyond all time and space. Each one of us,
completion of the universe, each one
of absolute necessity, unborn
unending--recipient of a beneficence
that reaches joyfully across
the galaxies forever. With a creation
ever new, they too without an end.
Such the antidote for sleepless nights.
Slipping away, awareness of the self,
eclipsed in awe that Dr. Dyer knew,
it is creation ever new, yet formed
a thousand ages past in tumbling space
ourselves conmingled, in totality.
I covet peace in every heart,
indeed my own as well, outgoing
with the consciousness of wisdom,
knowing arms are not for taking
but receiving all the joy contained
within the solitary act of love.
