Soul - Love Series 7
1.
“Communion of saints, forgiveness of sins,”
Worship words recited, relationships
Reflected among restless, inconstant,
Imperfect people, somehow sharing a
Faith which makes them one. I appropriate
These sacred words to speak in hallowed
Terms to the bond which unites our two hearts,
Holy Union, Wholly Uniting Us!
COMMUNION – Like a song without words whose
Message, nonetheless, is yet understood,
So the silent speech flowing between us,
Is Presence, Attentive, Observant, Sure.
Two souls be one, binary Nirvana
Admitting but two in oneness sublime.
2.
SAINTS – Hardly perfect, my dear, you know me
Far too well. Eccentricities abound,
Sometimes so irritatingly. And yet,
We cannot deny in process, we are
Progressing toward Union perfected
The Goal is in sight, detours abundant..
But what we can be, and who we become
Are foreshadowed now in who we are.
FORGIVENESS – the grace we apply to each
Failure and hurt is commitment which says
Your Worth is far greater to me than this.
When you fall in the path, I will be there,
For I fall, too, and would fail were it not
For my kinsman-redeemer rescuer.
3.
SINS – game changers,lower’d estimation,
Marks of judgment, condemnation of wrong;
Relationship Enders? Hardly! For when
I remember yesterday’s offense was
Mine, and through tears you helped me understand
The wounding I caus’d in a delicate soul.
Now, it’s my turn to take umbrage, or be
An agent of mercy embracing you.
With wonder we gaze, appreciation
Abounding for our miracle Union.
The love we communicate through hands, lips,
Eyes, Ears, Hair and animated solely
By this deepest Stillness, soul assurance
That this be an unassailable bond.
