The Fly
tiny hands
reach into my soul
silly games
reach into theirs
laughter exchanged
currency of the Spirit
God, are you here?
or like Elvis, have you left the building?
Two-toned innocence
masks a soul baring circumstance
peace to my bretheren
solace to my sisters
with the love of my mother
and the wisdom of my father
I congratulate this family reunion:
"You are the heroes and leaders of eternity!
The hopes in your hearts create the future of our world; the tears from your eyes stain the blankets of society.
Be one, be united and find your success: peace, compassion, freedom, unity and idealism are your virtue; passion and love are your weapons!
Go now, into your sunrise, into your paradise, and know always the beauty in your hearts!"
With that I usher them from the room and into the world. Their tiny hands slap me high fives and everytime I think 'Peace be with you.'
My god was there, the Spirit was alive and I prayed:
"God, take me home.
I am a warrior, and I have fought.
The journey was long and the battle was hard.
We won.
God, I want to sit at the foot of infinity.
I want to see your face.
Please, creator, acknowledger, the wiser, take me within your fold forever more."
With a breath of air, I felt god within, my soul felt complete and the presense divine.
Those tiny hands, those high fives were my high fives to God.
Amen and thank you. I have a dream.
