A Divine Unity

I hide myself behind a flower's keel

And watch the endless flow of passers-by,

From its fragrant cup I see a pilgrim kneel

As if before the feet of deity.

The breezes billow and the pollen blows

Across the landscape of enamoured light.

If we could open and the heart disclose

Its plenitude of love, then all delight

Be ours and the blossoming begin,

All ranges of the spirit to explore,

Earth and heaven's bounties hold within

And into realms of peace and silence soar.

This destiny of man the promised goal,

A unity divine of soul and soul.
