Journey through the Mind of God

Astronomy and its deep space sister science are

two of my favorite subjects to write about.  It is easy

for a poet's mind to dream of the enigmatic worlds of

Divinity, deep space and the magnificent wonders

of creation.  I have written several poems on these

subjects and added my audio readings to pages on

my site www.eonwriter.com   I hope you enjoy them


 

Sandy

It has always been with human kind

That we’ve been warned by stern and holy teachers

That we may never truly live

Without the Right and Only secrets of the gods

And in every age

The ready ranks of priests ordained in Holy Truths

Have boldly stood upon their Righteous Principles

To lead us to Salvation

Choose carefully, Honest Seeker

For the dire prediction of every one not chosen

Is punishment, oblivion

Or imprisonment in the unforgiving cycles of rebirth

Until we humbly yield our spirits

To some Master of Enlightenment

But first, before you go

Come outside with me tonight

We’ll lie on earth and sod

And send the hopeful dreams of history

Sailing far away on silver clouds

We will listen to a thousand crickets

Chirping to a trillion stars

We’ll contemplate by moonlight

The distant drift of mountains growing in the West

We’ll feel their mighty reach to heaven’s shore

Then come with me to find a midnight ocean

Lost in quiet thought

Softly glowing in a blue fluorescent bloom

While clouds of flowering jelly fish

Pulse in graced and lacey waltz

As they forage in their pastures

Before the sunrise meets the dew

We’ll stroll across the world among the far flung gardens

Flowering in wild and secret places

Gardens thriving in a million lives lived long before

Perhaps we'll find a nest as tiny as a teaspoon

Woven by some hummingbird

We’ll watch its chick break free

From a shell that’s grown too small

And see it breathe the first of light, and life, and self

Then perhaps we’ll pause a bit

To rise above our Right and Only secrets

And see the world through newer eyes

We’ll follow heaven’s song

Through rainbow streams of northern lights

We’ll sail on by the knowing moon

We’ll catch a ride on solar tides

We’ll soar beyond our Perfect Truths

And play in heaven’s dazzling heights

So stay a bit, dear Seeker, and consider if you will

Who is it truly who lives in Inner Light

Who truly knows the mind of God?
