The Form Heaven Takes
In early April of a waking dream,
sitting beside the dancing waves, I see…
that you are the form heaven takes
to welcome me home.
Riding the secret currents of peace,
I float amidst Earth tones
through perfumed pure lands
and kiss the hand of your pristine presence.
Behind the timeworn veils
we have learned to call you
and me,
the unsplit Source light shines forth
through facets of precious, polished stone.
Meaning:
Our Soul was fire-born
to fly and fall end over beginning again
into rippling seas of love,
for we are that love.
Night dawns. What miraculous fortune
to wake up stargazing
in eternal cosmic embrace,
dancing in the Self-reflecting mirror.
And here
the constellations of your face
twinkle and reach down
through unbroken distances of time
to stroke the surface waters,
slipping at last unresisted
into the depths
to pluck this heart
now open,
now awake,
now ripe!
