From Whence True Wisdom Springs

These past few weeks have been magnificent.  I have died and been born again.  So many of my older ideas have dissolved.  And in this eternal moment I find myself in Source, a blending of my self with being. 

I’ve tried to put words together when talking about this with friends, but what I feel and what I express rarely align.  Perhaps this poem will provide a little more clarity around what is happening with my being and my self.

From Whence True Wisdom Springs

I wish I could relate,
What happened since this birth.
Of the simple moments treasured,
from this death here on this earth.

Fallen to complexity,
A need to be myself,
To wander shadow’s garden,
explore, distract and delve.

I turn now to simplicity,
to Unity’s singular call.
I witness body’s cleansing,
Soul utterly enthralled.

The return now is clear to me,
All fears are cast aside,
the vision set so long ago,
now the cresting of this tide.

I know not what’s to come of this,
nor do I even care.
For the why, how and end of it,
would taint the purest prayer.

Love’s pursuit of unity,
a turn from outward things.
Ignoring sights of the world of forms,
from whence true wisdom springs.

About Carmien

While I feel drawn to express a little of my experience with you there is nothing that I could write that could possibly capture the moments themselves. Like the difference between the physical world and the spiritual one, my words are but a shadow, a pale reflected projection. But, I shall recklessly stand in my desire to fan your fire anyway, and share with you some of my fire.

I am a Philospher-Poet. Poetry and a quest for wisdom writes words through me. And should you see something in these words that uplifts or inspires you, then know that all that you see you can see because it is inside you already.
I blog at http://carmien.com/.  I would love to connect with those of like mind and those who recognize that there is something within but that are looking for ways to connect to the mysteries of life.
