I do not know the name for it, but I've felt it deep inside.
It encompassed me and suckled me; it's wisdom to confide
It brings me to the highest peaks; I'm sheltered in it's arm.
It lets me feel the softest touch. It keeps me free from harm.
It amplifies the inner voice. It heightens every sense.
It gives me drive and fortitude, and knocks down every fence.
It let's me wake inside a dream; inside another dream, as well.
It reflects my truest inner core. I succumb to it's holy spell.
I'd like to think that it will stay, and, in it's grandeur let me walk.
It gives depth to all my vision and lets me speak, much more than talk.
If I had to put a name to it, I would call it State of Grace,
And I would love to keep it in my soul and let nothing take it's place.
It seems to come and be with me, when I am lost and so confused.
It's soft sweet omnipresent voice whispers long lost treasured truths.
It's as though it lets me see my best, on a pedestal, or shelf..
It shows me wonderful purity that lies inside myself.
Yet, it also takes me further into the consciousness of all,
And lets me walk among the crowd, with my pride and honor tall.
It gives me insight o're the edge; One I cannot quite explain.
It heightens every neuro net that sparks inside my brain.
"Oh State of Grace, I love you. You bring the truest me.
I always need you in my life, as long as that might be."
D.C. Seiler, Jr.
I have written and changed this poem many times over the years, but I think that this is the final polished version. It is basically about being all that you can be, and smelling all the flowers in your life, never taking anything for granted, and always remembering that there is someone "up above", and a holy spirit that surrounds his children.

The true, divine love is infinite, it is a sea that has no beach, it is a high mountain, it was breath of wind.
ReplyDeleteLet we experience every minute of our lives, to we are sincere and open in their relationships.
Life is so precious, so sacred and every moment of it should be used for the creation of beauty, peace and harmony in relationships, at work we do, the projects we do, in everything. Every action, thought or deed of love will be beautiful. They are an expression of our divine nature, piece of the Creator.
And if we feel sad if we think that our life is a series of trials and tribulations, let we make a decision, let to we do choice to change that.
He - the life is fabulously beautiful and expect we to make the right choice - what we want from him - growth, development, joy and happiness or the other in the dual world.
This is our free will - that is our right.
I wish you to find your pebble of the happiness, to see full luster him, to glad sincerely and to distribute, to share the beauty and the joy with the people around you.
Be happy here and now! Always!
That was poetry itself, Borjana. You said it, even better than I. You totally grasped what I was saying, and expounded upon it. Thank You. May your life be full of Grace, as well. I know that it is. Thank you for replying to this post.
