Asking God

 

BIRDBRAIN

They called the weathervane
a scattered birdbrain
because the Wind Of Spirit
moved her in His train


HEART CHALICES

Father Mother God
we beg You today
to drink to the full
the heart
chalices in every creature
.. chalices You have
filled with pain.


QUICK MELT WITHOUT FLOOD

Only God can bring the sun
quickly to a snowcovered
freezing land.. without
flooding.

.


FRONDPRINTS

No matter how high
it climbs
the mountain ash
finds
he cannot stamp his
frondprints of green hue
upon the sky of spiritblue


 



THANKSGIVING

Turkeys
gave thanks in November

to vegetarians.


CRUNCHING SNOW

We do not have the infinite

factors necessay to

judge.  One day

those who dutifully
shoveled their walks
unwittingly later
left a surface of ice
whereas those
who neglected

to shovel

left a safe place
to walk in
the crunching snow.

MOTHER POLAR BEAR

the mother bear
is not cold
to her friends
or her own fold

*

 

DREAMS

Dreams are
messages in a bottle
washed upon our shores
from the ocean of God
They are
script of the night
seeded by angels

SACRED GATE

A sacred gate
to earth
is the
mother of each

. birdbrain
. crunching snow
. dreams
. frondprints
. heart chalices
. high wind
. mother polar bear
. not necessary to ask
. quick melt without flood
. sacred gate

Author's Notes/Comments: 

 

...
Swami in an interview with the
   heads of the Santa Clara, St Louis and other
   centers outlined that He would answer
   questions if the concern were immediate,
   the querant were surrendered to the answer,
   and if it dealt with the individual

   He said to do a 4 part system.. yes, no and
   2 waits.. as chits

   Chits or divination are mentioned in the Bible
   .. several times
