"...all is one"

Clouds The clouds were wearing wedding white when they gossamered grey as day turned night And then after dark they wrapped themselves in softest sable of raven black They were light and then shadow and then they were gone on a day further on Beyond the future present as presented by the wind as it blew past The clouds passed over and away too fast but I will not forget that way They looked that day that way they would if they would come back again if they could Bearing their whispered witness by the wind in the sky again and again So many clouds and so many more I have not seen but have seen before The clouds were wearing funeral black when the wind came due and blew them back Blown away the way I know on the breath of the universe I must go But if only I could understand I might not be quite so lonely when The wind carries me inevitably away someday when now is then Someday to come to comprehend the way the universe borrows to lend Around and around receiving to send and turning and returning where What turns returns where one who learns this way finds the freeing of being there In a heart where love grows when it knows as it comes and goes around the sun I have to know if I have to go that nobody ever goes anywhere That there is always here as here is always everywhere that all is one And then for when the wind carries me inevitably away someday To come to go but to know the freeing of the being of everywhere The clouds were wearing wedding white when they gossamered grey as day turned night The clouds passed over and away too fast but I will not forget that way The clouds were wearing funeral black when the wind came due and blew them back Whatever the clouds are wearing we turn returning to eternity However we look whoever we are we spiral each a rising star If lonely only because we have not met ourselves in each other yet Remembering myself along the way I know the clouds will not forget That way that day which they remember up to down but it is this same way What turns returns where one who learns this way finds the being of everywhere Though the night is long the journey longer still I know I will find it there In a heart where love grows when it knows as it comes and goes around the sun That there is always here as here is always everywhere that all is one +Steven Curtis Lance Copyright MMX
