First Light (Poem)

And there
was light

Dawn

Thoughts
gathered
upon
awakening

Eyes
open
to
Sunrise

Sobriety
internalized

Change
inevitable
as life
becomes
the result
of every
decision
made

No surprise

Therefore
make it
make sense &
choose wisely

Even better
choose life
which is
the fruit
of Righteousness
that sprouts
from seeds
of knowledge
planted
in fertile
mind soul
where there is
no ledge
but only
infinite
time-space
unbound
yet connected
to all &
unified
in Spirit and Truth
with Word
which serves
as impetus to
everything in
Existence

For Light
is the root
to all being
as in the
beginning
it was first
called forth
from depths
of darkness
which wombed
its nature
hidden
like fetus
in utero
fearfully &
wonderfully
made
gestating
until time
of delivery &
fulfillment
of purpose

To illuminate
the face of
creation
with brilliance &
sheer beauty

Indisputable

And what is
more beautiful
than
breath

Yet before
breath
there was
pure pulsation

The expansion &
contraction of
Consciousness
flowing fluidly
from the Fountain
of Living Waters
transcending
sin and death
unto Eternal
animation
in pursuit
of purpose &
production of
the paradigm of
Paradise

People
prepare
for
Life

Now
breathe &
know
that YOU
are Light

Captured
in flesh

Originally
radiant &
only realized
when reality
resonates
with reason
activating
revelation
which reaches
ranges beyond
mortal recognition
with responses
resplendent
to receptors
stimulating
Total Recall
unto its full range
of frequency

Ultimately
manifesting
transformation of
the terrestrial body
into the
celestial Spirit

See
we
were
created
to shine

As once
upon a time
we were
but a thought
in the Mind
of the Sublime
with
nature
divine
in kind
aligned
with
Prime
Principle
designed
invincible
yet confined
in Temple
defiled
until refined &
reconciled
like mother &
child
postpartum
for the stardom
which we
were all born
to inherit
upon the merit
of our trustworthiness
transcending ashes &
dust
to adjust
our image
into the likeness
of the One
who has all might
Who brought
Day
out of
Night
with the
mere utterance
of the Words
Let
There
Be
Light…
