From glory to Glory
by Tim Kavi
there is only
the calling that is
that arises
as sure as any dawning
certain in the uncertainty
that any hope
of tomorrow always brings
the promise of an appearing
to live again!
a stream is ongoing
You cannot step into the same river
twice; Heraclitus said
well spoken
to remember; I am not the same
the river has a name
but it is not the same river
never give up hope
in the wading to a deeper place
in the swimming in a deeper love
in a kiss from galactic orbs
of being
enter the stream
cross the stream
bridge it in Divine love
walk on water in human love
the stream where the bowl
swirls backwards
showing proof of that which is
manifested
in the bridge
of person to person
to the waters of healing
to the tears that feed the stream
to the stream that becomes
a river of self acceptance
self love transcended then to Other love
the basic walk of toddlers
in a mature universe taught by love
until riding the waves
goes to the stream
babies to the river
we are baptized
so that love
teaches it
becomes an ocean
where we never lose who we are
for who I am is a who WE are
swim on
walk to the side
make way for the journeying
break it up
turn again; find anew
when you come again to the banks
of existing
hope; a reflection in the water
Goddess we are seeing Saraswati
in the water
Shekinah glory
led from glory to glory
the Other side of your godly form
I no longer see my masculine face
washed in your water
I cannot stand in Your temple
I no longer see war and hate
it morphs again
and again
I look again my aged masculine face
renewed by your love
in your Youth I am cleansed
the stream is calling entry
the river is flowing
the ocean nearly overcomes
therein the waters of existence
Shekinah, I am brought
guided again, to your dove like love
even to Your Goddess face.
