A Welcoming Hymn

The deeper you care

the more remote you become

What the present reveals

no clock can outrun

 

The past and the future

for others to know

This journey one-way

where detached you must go

 

Those voices who call

pull you deeper within

Not lost but alone

taking flight back to Him

 

As Jesus, The Buddha

and Crazy Horse knew

The path to true knowledge

doubt ridden and strewn

 

With the old voices silenced

new voices begin

As your eyes slowly close

— to their welcoming hymn

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: August, 2018)
