    Children of the Sun XIV

    With the expected birth
    Into the solar family
    Of another child
    Siblings will again shift
    To drift further away
    From the place of their birth
    And into the comfort
    Of newly found orbits

    “The pendulum swings”

    The pendulum swings
    Life to death to life to death
    Over and over
    
    Until one becomes the stillness
    At the center of the wheel

    The One You are Destined to Be

    Paths I, iii

                    
    Notice the solely unique in each,
       For the preciousness of every one
       Is special and rare, a beauty
       To behold in the noonday sun;
    As pebbles along the shore reach
       Out, hoping to hear another call. . .
          An individual striving for name,
          To be part of the whole, yet free,
          Quite different though of the same.
       The unity shared before the fall
    Is ours to feel, learn and teach. . .
       Seeing One in many, large in small,
       We grow to find the ALL in ALL.
