He Gave me a Gift


In my life HE opened my mind

And gave me a gift

To keep close to heart the gift of knowing what my eyes can’t see

What my ears can’t pick up

What my fingers can’t feel

What my tongue can’t sense

What my nose can’t translate

That is my burning wanting

 

Realization of never being alone

I have a friend

Who ROSE from the DEAD

 

Understanding that it is never truly dark

For In the BEGINNING

There was LIGHT

 

My mind is caressed by the idea of a land

A land of PARADISE

Where TIME is only a STORY

And ETERNITY is the REALITY

A land of MILK and HONEY

Not of BLOODSHED

 

The night sky

Invaded by balls of fire

The creatures that roam the Earth

From the sea

To underneath

To above

Proves to the unknowing

What could be

The complexity of the beauty

A MASTERPIECE

From the Artist.
