Strangers
I don’t know your Soul’s agenda.
I don’t know the Path you take
co-creating and navigating
the life you have or wish to make.
I don’t know your life story,
what has brought you peace or worry,
what now gives your life meaning,
the values of your being.
I don’t know who you are
as a Stranger near or far
living the life you’re in,
your thoughts and feelings within.
Perhaps someday, somehow we’ll meet
greeting each other as a Friend,
sharing our thoughts with trust,
never because we must vent hate.
**********************************************
Celestial beings and bodies, we gravitate,
we orbit, we move and resonate
with push and pull of forces
bringing us together, pulling apart.
Evolving to ‘Global Consciousness’, then
‘Citizens of the Universe’ so very
strange and beautiful and diverse, we’ll see
that ‘strange’ isn’t wrapped in fear
when true Love of Life grows here.
Even now, some live in higher Awareness,
Caring Connection, Spirit of Unity,
Voluntary Sharing, Global Community,
Re-Defined, Re-Divined Family-
inclusive, not exclusive,
expressing a higher form of Love
and Respect for Life far above
what most of Humanity sees now.
Most Humans have few Opportunities,
few Basic Necessities, food and shelter,
no indoor plumbing, electricity,
rights and freedoms, that we Humans
all could have if we’re All Willing,
not declaring “It can’t be done “
or “thank God” because Those Billions
don’t include you and me.
Have we made ourselves ‘Strangers’
to a God of Pure, Unconditional Love by
justifying selfishness, greed, indifference,
or acting out anger as violence (offence-defence)
‘claiming’ and ‘blaming’ an Angry God, even
a Fearsome, Vengeful, Violent God.
Are we even ‘Strangers’ to ourselves?
The Spirit of God is Love and our Spirit is too.
God Bless Us Everyone.
