Persistent in love
Nowhere did I go to find such beauty
as the amazement
around the shadow of the full moon.
When the glimpse of the clouds tries its best
to hide the radiant rays of the moon,
it cannot fade,
it rather makes the beauty of the moon
become more apparent.
Such is the persistence of beauty,
and the persistence of love.
The world can be a place
where mistrust and preoccupation
makes our love to be suspected.
Many people rather love to comment
and think of the unthinkable evil.
But I trust in man's original innocence;
in that they have also the capacity to trust;
only sometimes blurred.
How starving humanity is!
Cruelty will always bear hatred
and another dozen cruelties.
In the gentle encounter of love and trust
even towards a very lame and unworthy one,
joy and peace are being conceived.
Not in one night or two,
but it can be such a lengthy path.
Yet once your feet step on it,
you will become meek and ardent.
You will humbly accept blessings
in disguise of sorrow or pain.
But that is love and it endures...
How can words and gestures
become tremendous healing and warming power?
When done in silence and in love,
that is in prayer to the Lord the Lover of Humankind.
It needs no bells nor cymbals
but a simple wooden stick
to sustain the swing of the legs.
Simply calmed down and being watchful,
invoking the most powerful Name in the entire universe,
the love and joy from the Almighty One
greets your heart
and the heart becomes full of energy,
full of eros
that will make you ready to love.
