WHERE LOVE WILL STAY FOR EVER MORE

Love itself appears in the here and now, a living light. Between the layers of time, as if returning from a distant fight or a high mountain, love appears. It takes its place within, like a second self, where there had been a hollow space before. And what has never been at last can be, a place where love will stay for ever more.

Love made me, and love was made for me. My eyes were made by light, to see light. My voice was made by words, to speak the words I need to tell. And likewise love, which saw and heard itself at the beginning of all things, finds a true home in me, in order to give me back to eternity.

And when the human being finds wholeness, he adds glory to the work of God that he is, just as a sunset will add glory to the sky. Yet nothing is complete till he flies to the heart of the creation that is his. As a totality he was conceived in the holy fire which remembers why it called him into being. When he receives his higher nature he’ll fill the sacred world with his seeing.

 

For Ever More (for H.)

You’re here and now for me, a living light,

I see you there between the layers of time

returning to me from a distant fight,

a mountain long ago you had to climb.

You’re with me now, a second self in me,

where there had been a hollow space before,

and what has never been at last can be,

a place where love will stay for ever more.

 

Shell

By love I’m made, and love is made for me –

a gift of God it fills my empty shell.

My eyes were made by light, the light to see,

my voice by words, to find the words to tell.

And so I welcome love into my heart

to give me back to that eternity

which saw and heard itself right at the start

and found a shell to house what it should be.

 

Seeing

The whole man, like a sunset to the sky,

adds glory to the work of God he is.

But nothing is completed till he fly

to the heart of the creation that is his.

The holy fire in which he was conceived

remembers why it called him into being,

and when his higher nature is received

he’ll fill the sacred world with his seeing.

 

Best wishes, today,

Landar
