My Beloved,
I came into the world
With empty hands,
Unaware of what treasures
I might find here –
I cam from God
The Eternal Dreamer
Ready to know my Immortal Lover
She was the happiness-gift
Of a devotion I valued most
She was the bliss-spark
Of a surrender I happened upon
Naturally, as naturally
As I was born to live and die –
My Beloved,
My minds wants to invent
A new God, with pretty new doctrines
But my heart wants to discover
Something eternal, untarnished
By bloody histories, civil unrest
My dear Nature,
Please warm me before
Evolution finds my kind extinct
My gratitude-heart,
Can only bare so much
And I feel your heart
Even in the carelessness of all
We have done, all we do
The miracle of my chase with God
Can only end in the realization
Of your secret wishes
In my descendants.
Beautiful and inspiring Wuji.
Thank you Syl, I find the rewards of writing like this immense..
It is rewarding as a reader too my friend. I find it very inspirational and thoughtful.
Thanks though I am only repeating what others have said…
Still inspiring.
“A new God” is an idea that came up yesterday in a conversation. You have tapped into a concept that is apparent. That the idea of God can evolve, change, be constantly created is something that is itself fresh, new and deserving of poetry.
