Are you looking for the solace of your soul?

[Kaspalita]

Are you looking for the solace of you soul?
I cannot give it to you
It must spring from the deep well
of your life's experiences
each tender moment
each drop of holy rain that falls onto your face
as you walk in the dark praying
and in each footstep you are taking
into the unexpected dawn

[Pundarika (orna)]

Find a mirror
pray to have a clue
we are not alone
what you see is really true,
through the morning light
it might be me it can be you,
if only we can stop the fight -
it's never over-due.....

[Dharmavidya]

I am water never sleeping,
tears that flow, forever weeping,
under darkest tundra seeping,
over morning cobwebs peeping.

I am air forever falling
sliding on the raven's calling;
through your fingers I am nothing
but without me no-one's singing.

I am earth and I am mighty;
nothing in my rock is flighty;
gold and silver, I am riches;
I am palaces and ditches.

I am fire now ascending,
forming, changing, glowing, ending;
hardest metal I am bending;
furthest galaxies I'm tending.

I am space where all things happen,
motionless and never broken,
far beyond what can be spoken,
past all sign nor key nor token.

I am the elemental source
and the delta of your course;
I am the pure life and the bourse;
I am the voidness and the force.

I am all this and yet I'm free;
I am not found, I'm mystery;
I am not I, I am not you;
I am no more than what is true.

Faith As Trust As Freedom:

What is it
To Live Tangibly
Responding -

House Martins
Swifts & Crows
A dark exodus?

What is it
To take on trust
Amida's Vow
Christ's pierced
Hands & feet
Diatoms of soil
Worm in moist
Dark labyrinth
Giving life
Whole body
One with all
Plainsong
Inaudible
Rapture
Of cocoon
New birth of
Wrigglers?

What is it
To break out and
Fly -
Through storm &
Calm passage
Into the eye of
Night & uncertainty
Love bearing due north
Into morning?

'Unless you see a thing in the light of love,
you do not see it at all'
K. Raine

World in the light
Work in the light

Friends in the light
Next door neighbour in the light

Mother, father, brother
& sister in the light

Family in the light

See it all clearly
In the light of love

Air in the light
Bare in the light

When in the light
Then in the light

There in the light
Here in the light

Life in the light
Death in the light

Dark in the light
Light in the light.
