Fellow artisans of this life .
Very few know that we are
Kindred Spirits
And have visited heaven.
We have glimpsed the creative nature of God
And his Spirit has imprinted upon us
His Chi.
For once He spoke
And all creation shuddered
But that voice which most refuse
Is that which drives us
And instructed us in our quiet
To show,
Tell
And by every means share
With those not blessed as we.
For we have glimpsed the nature of God.
The beauty of
Creation
Life
Death
Enlightenment
Rebirth
Revelation
Comprehension
Joy
Pain (Sweet and Repugnant).
It does not matter that you have
A tongue that permits no speech,
Limbs that refuse to obey,
A voice that can not be heard,
For all can hear
All can see
And all can feel
And be heard.
For as Kindred Spirits
We have been blessed
To interpret and convey
That voice which most refused;
Is that which drives us
And instructed us in our quiet
To show, tell
And by every means share –
That Which We Have Received
