My Gift

My Gift
Beloved Lord, Divine Love,
once again
I have nothing to offer You but myself…
I stand in Your Presence
putting away the robe of pride…
You see beyond the robe and the flesh…
You see my sacrifice and my love—
and once again—
You respond with Your comforting embrace
and the sacred ‘kiss’ of ecstasy,
that holy ‘kiss’ of Spirit
whose ‘fire’ consumes my little gift of me
in acceptance of Unity—
I in You and You in me—
aware of only Oneness, Mystic Love,
Your most sacred Present of all.

Escape a World of Fear

Escape a World of Fear
When dread of danger haunts you here,
when terror and trauma stalk your days,
remember your Spirit’s countless ways
of guiding you out of a world of fear.
Disregard hatred’s tempting voices
of death and destruction far and near.
Walk with what you hold most dear
of Life, of Love, of Freedom’s choices.
Show others a different way to fight
fear’s intolerance and aggression’s greed,
unquestioned beliefs and delusional need,
endless wars of sorrow, grief, and fright.
With free and loving Souls unite
beyond borders of races and nations,
politics, religions, and social stations,
helping Humanity’s desperate plight.
Be a guiding light of priceless worth
when dark deeds fill our nights and days.
Remember reverence for Life always.
Be a hope and blessing to our Earth!!!

Human Survival

Human Survival
We are beings of pure energy, boundless and free—
more than the ever-changing flesh and blood we’d allow
to define and dictate our Life-linked destiny,
unaware of our oneness in the here and now.
Don’t bind us at birth’s first painful cry
to this planet’s slave-creating myths of the past.
Show our Genderless Souls that never die
our birthright of dignity and respect at long last.
Take us beyond our ancient cultures’ Written Words—
beyond the magic of alien-angel interventions—
past false promises in an ever-warring world—
choreographed events, and technologies transcending
dimensions.
Feed us the true milk and honey of Freedom’s LOVE,
not the poison of illusion-creating fears.
Remind us of our power to rise above
Sleep-Walkers Shadow-lands of torments and tears.
Free us of all that promotes and celebrates Pain
as the “glorious means” to a Spiritual end.
Teach us that in the Spirit of Unity we gain.
A wounded World waits to heal and to mend.

Global Consciousness

Global Consciousness
We are individual souls
empowered by a love so strong
that nothing limits or restricts
our remembered unity.
