i heard myself silently saying - “o my dear master
let me find my hand reaching for your hand
let my eyes be contented to focus only upon yours
let me feel a willingness to receive all your love
for it is only within the realm of this your love
that i shall be enabled to live and to thrive
as i wander through the many parched places
of a civilization - now so profoundly confused
now so enmeshed within its own self created lies
that it has no place left for civility or for decency
i even find dishonour and indignity in high places
high places of a culture – unable to prosper honestly
a current culture that could change - but will not
you see from all of this how much I need your help”
“yes – my dear one – came the silent reply to me
“let me find your hand - reaching for my hand
let your eyes be contented to focus upon mine
let yourself feel a willingness to receive my love
for it is only within the realm of my spiritual love
that you will be able to live and to learn to love”
