When I resolve into the essence
That I most truly am,
I feel a deep connection
With every living thing.
For that which most imbues me
With my identity
Is somehow inthe other,too,
I see myself--reflected.
Hidden in this union
Is the wonderful discovery
That if indeed the angels
Have wings--
Then so do I.
And if the essence of a flower
Drifts out on a gentle breeze--
Then so do I.
And if the midnight sky
Is radiant with light--
Then so am I.
And if the silent mystery
Somehow becomes revealed
In tiny dewdrops fair--
Then so will I.
For every lovely thing
Manifests the essence
Of which I am a part,
Sobeware, my soul, beware,
And move with gental heart
Throughout this mystic veil.
For if Love has left its imprint here--
Then so have I!
