slowly
flowing,
never knowing.
Nothingness echoes
in timeless,
hollow halls.
God is Alone.
Emptiness offers no tomorrow,
no today,
in vacuum and in void
no yesterday.
God stands…
God sits…
God treads the vacant whole.
God is.
God is Alone.
One Great Heart Pounds in silent expectation.
One Great Mind moves in rapid inspiration.
One Great Hand rises clutching nothing there
as all Alone God does this Darkness bear.
Then through the Void a Voice!
A Voice in Vibrance of all that is to come
streams from this Great God’s Heart,
streams into every part of empty, vapid space.
God Is
and Is What Comes!
God Is
and calls Life from
the manacles of a dark and empty place
where all dreams, yet to be embraced,
sing in the Voice now Raised.
God Is
that Voice now Raised.
God is The Voice.
Vast chaos shakes its hulking form from silent sleep,
and wakes into a yawning consciousness,
pushing past the mist of timeless haze.
God’s Great Voice Rings,
surging through the dearth of pre-creation,
rushing to explode a spangling nation
into the darkness,
Speaking into Being
multitudes of star lights,
galaxies of song brights.
Alive in Glowing God-Light dance the stars,
whirling,
spinning,
in Jubilant Joy of Being!
Then with One Touch
one Grand and Gentle Hand
reaches into a tiny heart,
a waiting part
of Heaven’s Dance,
creating Man.
God is…
man is…
not Alone.
“The spirit of God hath made me, and the breath of the Almighty hath given me life.” Job 33:4 (KJV)
