We’ve been, seen but not become soul’s light that bids us welcome, since as yet we stand not still, not quite aligned with God’s will. Subtle flickers of disdain, stifled dreams that cause us pain, from time to time, raise their head, signalling that we’re ill bred. What avail the Holy Grail if feral instincts prevail, clouding sight, veiling God’s light, making us cower in fright? Although we do hear love call, we’re headed for a long haul, slowly erasing fissures to reclaim heaven’s treasures. 15-August-2022

Prithee, do not 'falter at the altar'... turn fissure to fusion and bury illusion. :) gw
