Short Brahman Poems

I
The Formless emanates forms
One is many ... Things
Spirit is Living Word
Hiding me under Wings

II
Brahma and Atma, Unity
Despite all the diversity
Do not dismiss Ambiguity
For Father, Son, Spirit-Holy

No time, beyond space
Faceless, Face of Grace
Immaterial with material body
Wave and Ocean simultaneously...

God Almighty,  Jehovah, Brahman, Adonai,  Allah
Lord of the Worlds
Oh, God Almighty,
Indeed you are the power over my mind,
the light in my eyes,
the Guide to the good of what I hear,
the humility of my heart,
and
the compassion in my hands.

the glut of selfishness,
the insight of the wicked, 
the numbness of the swindlers,, 
the plight of the ungrateful,
and let PEACEFUL be my world
