GUIDING LIGHT





GUIDING LIGHT

to wring truth
from anything
be ruthless
when weeding

on the way 
yes, i prayed
asked that You
my God be there

trusting, with faith, 
(i rode without fear)
that those nicest two
also listen, also hear

and they did.
so now can believe 
what said here is true!

witnessed a miracle!
love, powerful--
melting iceberg,
my spectacle

time will take time
you'll not be alone
the guiding light 
will see you home

    1. From photos I know how beautiful your two main islands shine in the east Bay of Bengal.
      There are 96 wildlife sanctuaries, nine national parks and one biosphere reserve in the islands.
      26 of the 576 islands are inhabited. A real tourist destination.
      And your city-of-birth, Port Blair is one of the priceless gems in that huge ocean-place.
      Thank for allowing me to use the photo of that scintillating area!PEACE!

  2. smiles. we should be ruthless in cleaning our own beds
    and graceful in cleaning that of another
    that the only thing that could be offensive
    is the truth

    1. Of course, one cannot "clean" another, but only open the toolbox for him/her.
      Truth, when finally known, internalized, is a peaceful place.
      Why do/did we fight it for so many years?
      Offensive? I believe...FEAR!

  4. 76% of MAericans believe in God. Only 76% less than what it used to be. Explains why we are having difficulties, don't you think?

    1. Ces, I do not understand the "Only 76% less than what it used to be."

      Our choices spawn difficulties. It is the ONLY school which can bring us to a more spiritual way of life.
      TWO THINGS I believe are our greatest problems: Self-Centeredness, and FEAR! (You asked what did I think--grin!)
      TSUP!

  5. My dear Steve <3 I have not words enough for telling you how much I apreciate your comments, always full of knowledge, even taking time to translate my post if they are in Spanish. Thank you, for the wisdom you share with us in every poem, in every comment, in every word, even in your silences.

    1. STEVE: WOW! How do I deserve this kind of comment, God?

      GOD: Well. Steve, you do NOT deserve it, but every now-and-then I give out a special gift.
      This week, it is a comment from Anne Frank.
      Blessings.

  7. When we arrive in life to a place where we can see and appreciate miracles, we are blessed. Miracles happen all the time, we are not always aware of them.
