| Searching for the Goddess of Light |
| |
| Goddess of Light |
| Giver of Wisdom |
| you are the North Star |
| of my soul. |
| |
| Following the trail |
| of your radiant form |
| I’ve searched worlds |
| of beauty and chaos |
| for you. |
| |
| From lifetime to lifetime, |
| star to star, world to world, |
| through torrential storms, |
| great wildernesses and |
| primitive civilizations, |
| I passed through them all |
| in search of you. |
| |
| At times you were just a memory |
| — a precious fragrance embraced — |
| and that was enough for me! |
| Onward I went into countless |
| unknowns always in search of you. |
| |
| Finally, I had searched |
| the entire cosmos for you. |
| There was no where else to go. |
| Heartbroken, I went inwards |
| thinking that you were truly lost. |
| |
| But, in the infinite inner silence |
| and the Creator’s saving grace |
| I lifted my vision to find new |
| worlds within that had |
| not been searched before. |
| |
| A new hope arose in me! |
| |
| Working on the inner canvas, |
| and with help of invisible spirits, |
| I fashioned a piece of visual poetry |
| that held my most essential |
| memory of you. |
| |
| When completed, I cast it into |
| the inner and outer Universes |
| as a beacon ... a homing beacon. |
| |
| “If only you would see it,” |
| I prayed to Source, |
| “it would let you know |
| that I am here for you.” |
| |
| Goddess of Light |
| Giver of Wisdom |
| you saw my poem |
| and quickly pulled me |
| to you. |
| |
| Lost in love |
| I’ve now returned |
| to my Beloved’s |
| sweet embrace. |
| |
| The trails are long, |
| the storms are great, |
| the missions are meaningful, |
| but nothing compares |
| to you. |
