Into a Bright Reality I Came

Into a bright reality I came

Over the edge of dream to borderlands

Where flesh and spirit inherently the same

Obeyed the fluting-call of God's commands.

I felt the rising sap within the tree

And the soft caress of sunlight charging leaves

And knew our lives a holotype of Thee

In golden morns and star-encrusted eves.

Delight of my days and crowning majesty,

The surreal beauty of the slow descending sun

Throwing its final fire to the sky

When love and joy and life and light were one.
