you asked me very recently
to write for you a poem
and tonight these words
came to heart
not only do people meet
for a reason
but souls blend together in
miraculous ways
to better their contacts
as well as their hosts
for some supreme purpose
never to be fully mapped
out for the mind
just know that when its right
its really right
belief is born of the soul
as human love is born of the
flesh
ah, but its the soul love that is
undefeatable
for God, himself
the source of all higher love
is undefeatable
his will is a constant dependable force
a quiet comfort to the grieving
and the so very alone
even in the worst possible circumstance
a truly humbled man can find blessings
love takes many forms
its pleasures are limitless
did you feel no real pleasure
from our having met?
some of the greatest joys I've ever known
entered my life from so very far away
(just like you now!)
a connection was strongly felt on my part
well, this time anyway
without any need for the physical manifestation
such feeling is so pure
when one loves with an open heart
it can be so soul like in its sharing
look always beyond this injured now
for that's just what it is
a greatly wounded version of our truer soul selves
being so dramatically played out in this role
of living
that we each have been given
teach yourself to embrace chilled and warmed hearts
alike
you will meet many people who are so scared and not
yet spiritually awake
we must forgive and enlighten them thus so
for its ignorance yet addressed on their part
their own journey through this life took a longer path
around to get where they are now
there are no detours we can offer them
we can only shine our new beacon of light attained
upon them
in attempt to help them too better grapple with their
own yet fully discovered light within
whether each our so very separate path is
harsh
scary
easy
tranquil
quick
unseen
unfelt
unfair
foreign too
or even just ignored
still
for everyone
that promised path is there
and no matter how far
we wonder away from
its unique course
its never too far from our own
journey
to manage to find us again
or allow us the wisdom to find it
for that has always been God's
silent plan
keep this spirited vidual
in your every conscious thought
the path to that of the Eternal
is the most beautiful journey
any man can endeavor to make
so set aside your proof needing doubts
and just take it
its God's Christmas present to you
every moment of your life
to Everyone
this my dear
I can promise you..............
