The Path of Descent

The Path of Descent

The gate of the temple,
the temple of the sun and the moon
will open for you and enclose within it
your translucent soul,
and take your offering  collected over years
of toil of ceaseless travel to the heart of your life within.
Feel the mighty magnetism;
feel the rays of the whitest prism
bringing the rain of love and light.
Millions of stars do burst at the night,
the night when you witness the sun and the moon unite.
Stay in the shower of the love while it pours.
Each raindrop will soak you with
nectar of the dewdrops cast on the leaves
of the lotus with a thousand petals, all in a bloom.
Beyond the world that you have seen
 are your roots in the body, roots where your earth holds;
it will hold you now as a gift,
descending to her in a renewed birth
 from the womb of light and love.
Stay in that silence
of calm and serene peace
and feel your energized roots.
, like those of a sturdy tree.
