Wake up from your lethargy
Now something is stirring within you
Heed the call!
Listen to the voice of the silence
Be still and know that I am
communicating with you
Why are you moving away from me?
What is your shame?
What are your fears?
Who showed you these illusions of disdain?
All is crafted by me
I love you with a love you can't fathom or discern
When the evening stars dim in the black sky
My brilliant light sparkles just for you
I exist when everyone else is dead to you
And you are never diminished in my eyes
I stand before you like as before
When even your shadow disappears from view
Taste me and see my love is good
Feel my heart beat just for you
Like the fluttering finch in the lemon tree
You are unique in exquisite form
Shaped in beautiful intention of mine
Never once have I stepped outside your realm
Or entered in, to influence your free will
The fast bird may win the race up in the sky
But slow and steady is the pulse of life
And the faithful heart takes the prize of all
You are the one that I have called
Your future unfolding before your eyes
Stop trying to make it happen against the tide
And understand the rhythmic flow of just being
The working tools are already in your hand
Doing the right thing is the unfailing command
By being true to oneself
Is the singular mantra of life
Live each precious moment
Absorbed in zest and enthusiasm
Recognize and follow your route of Destiny
Laid before you in unrivalled simplicity
Swerve neither right nor left
From the great I Am
Symbolic Stones
Written by my hand

This is the most beautiful poem I've read from you, Peter...

You command a depth and inner-feeling that harmonizes with the will and wonder of seeking within to find without... Superbly wrought.

Wow! - Did you write this - or the Lord within you wrote it for you - Ahhhhhh.- but of course, I believe you, because I know Him. And He jumped up within as I read.
Thank you - thank you - thank you.
Bless the Lord!
