There is nothing so true


brother 
there cannot be a love so true as the ONE
there cannot be a summer day so beautiful 
and warm
there cannot be a bluer sky
or a prettier face
than the light that rests in you

sister
there cannot be a wonder so amazing
there cannot be a crate with such
sweets or a bin with such ripe berries
there can only be what it is you are
and this light is the most amazing
and sings your name 
without the heaviness of *other*

mother
there is nothing so joyous 
as your child
but THIS is even more joyous
and it sings of your love 
without taking it away
like a dance in the still of the morning
and a precious smile from the fruits of 
your labor
and the most amazing light that is you
so do not hold back
from yourself
dance with your child in the heart
as this ONE lives eternally

father
your heart is in the home
but you have not fully been there
you have wandered about
in the land of other
and never fully opened to yourself
which lets in the light of your family
without clinging
this is the truth and is what comes in 
the day of knowing 
and putting your soul to rest
this light is what you are
and it is all the love you could ever hold
and more beyond
come find it
it is dancing now

precious seeker
you are the lamp that lights the way
for others
and are the example for humankind
is this what sounds right in your world
or are you elsewhere
because this is what the scriptures 
say 
and what is said in those books is the most high
so you should live it
and not care about your little world
as it will break down eventually
love what is before you to do
and stop thinking of yourself
so much
this is how the lamp
can be lit
and if you look backwards
you will not see it
like the treasure it is
