Children of the Sun I

Currently residing
Between her two siblings
Venus and Mars
The blue jeweled planet
On whose surface we ride
Revolves around its parent
Through the galactic night

“Help is coming”
```
Help is coming—
It is in your mind
If you stop your games
And find the time.

And if you look
You still can see
Your non-existence
Must cease to be.

Crutches
```
We all have crutches,
It would be a lie to deny it.

We must therefore decide
Which are needed to keep Man
On this side,
Just above the line
Between we and animals.

“The Heavens appear”
```
The Heavens appear
As the cloud cover dissipates.

Full Moon
Rising in the valley
Of mountain peaks.
Light—
Reflecting on calm river.

Fog forms veils
On the valley floor—
Eerily midnight approaches;
April Full Moon.

Borning Prayer

Mother-Father
Blessed Universal Presence
Residing in the Eternal Now
Let your Presence be Known
Within this physical vehicle
Purifying and aligning
The seven energy centers
In each and every one of its bodies
Lighting the Vertical Pathway
Firing the Cross of Creation (more…)

Paths I, vi

Is the heaven we seek beyond,
   Or a divine flame within us?
   To reach out, grasping distant star
   Is opening the heart to trust
In a divinely loving bond.
   The seeds of immortality
      In each individual soul
      Lie dormant, to sprout at any hour,
      As we dwarf or nurture their very goal.
   If the quest be made lovingly,
Our eternal life will greet the dawn;
   Awakening the asleep to see
   Heaven’s all encompassing glory.

Through Pisces to Aquarius IV

                    IV
We both knew it had been some years
Since we spent much time together.
There were many stories to tell
And so few hours to get all said;
Yet I wanted to share my joy
Of living near mountains and lakes:

The Dream Shelf
```
Reenter the Closet of Thought;
Sift through the forgotten debris
Left during many years of life,
And locate that special item
Buried somewhere on the Dream Shelf.

“The history we hold so dear”
```
The history we hold so dear
Study and dwell on is
Rubbish quite clear
    And deserves that end.

If we cannot learn
From its sad tale
We might as well burn
In our hell, or
Set Noah’s sail.
