Devotional Poetry My Search I Into the mystic realm, I let my mind take flight, Over stone strewn highways, I search the endless night. I was the Wanderer, Looking for a goal, And the Seeker, Searching for my soul. I walked the roads of idle fancy, Paths of material delight, Stumbling over stones of vain imaginings, In my search for the light. A voice deep within me cried: "Here doesn't lay your goal, Upon these darkened pathways, You'll never find your sou." II Into the mystic realm, Again my mind took flight, Over well traveled highways, I search the misty twilight. I was a Seeer, Seeking an unknown goal, And a Stranger, To my own soul. In this realm of half-light, I strolled the roads of tradition, Picking my way carefully, Through the shadows of superstition. Still from within came the cry: "Not in this realm is your goal, Upon these half-lit pathways, You'll never find your soul" III Into the mystic realm, Again I took flight, And walked the paths, Where God has shed His light. I walked the hallowed highways, Trod by the Prophets of old, Strolled the ancient paths, Strewn with nuggets of pure gold. This is the wondrous realm, Where all paths become one, This is the glorious land, Illuminated by God's sun. Through the Word of God, I have found my soul, In the Messenger for this age, I have found my goal. Poet's Note: ▼ |

Like a flame,
consuming scented wax,
we intone sacred scriptures
releasing the perfume of glory.
Like sage smoke,

we chant prayer
expressing the Creator's loftiness.

Our words echo the candle's sacrifice
that drop by drop
submits to the will of God.
Our purpose is to celebrate
the Lord's Super

In this new and wonderful age,
the primal will
is to bring humanity together
as a single species.

I hear the nightingale singing
in the All-Highest Paradise,
the excellence of his song reverberating
through the open gate
and into the world of mater.
I inhale the perfume of perfection
wafting from the tree of life
and across the garden
to the table that has been prepared
by the hand of All Glorious Lord.
I raise my voice in praise,
as I watch humanity--
its maturity achieved--
approach the entrance
to the Kingdom of God.

I walk through the garden of paradise,
inhaling the fragrance of grace
from the hyacinths of loving kindness.
Before me stands the table of mercy,
arrayed with the fruits of the tree of life
and the wine of immortality.
I sing praises to the Lord of Host{footnote:#}One of Baha'u'llah's titles.
for the blessing of being born
in the Day of God.
I give thanks for the favor
of celebrating the Lords Supper
with the Glory of God{footnote:#}Th... [Read more] |
