Scattering pearls

A heart inside
Infinite supernova’s whirl

E=MC square
Quantum mechanics

A yellow bright
Surrounded the static’s

The Angels swim,
Two iota’s on wings

The embryo
The Signs it sings

The stepping back
The stepping forward

The Opening
The Glorification
The forehead is lowered

Walking to the station
Of Endless Praise

A Greeting surrendered
A Greeting exchanged

The yellow shine
was happy as a Child

Lo, witnessing

The Altogether Lovely
Light

Upon reading it again and again, I feel a certain peace that is very calming to my soul and a loving energy that fills me with hope. I have family living in a place of war and friends serving as soldiers in that war. My brothers and sisters are all of mankind, and my hope is that the door we all enter will be the right door where we will find the face of God and in His loving energy we will also find peace. -Deborah aka indigo-daisy Your words never cease to inspire me and this poem in particular has touched me so very deeply.
