Do You Feel It Too?

Do You Feel It Too?

I heard it in the whispering wind,

While caressing the potency of the moon

And speaking in tongues of fire

To the excellence of tides.

I heard it in the intangible frailty of time,

While singing the immutable song of beauty

And recreating the poetry of humankind

From the comfort of my self-confidence.

And now I feel it rushing through my veins,

Pouring its essence into my spirit,

Blessing my heart with new beats.

Do you feel it too?

Do you feel this new Word,

This new shaft of light

Gushing like bloodlines

Across the Milky Way of your vision?

Close your eyes,

And dive into the pond of oblivion,

Where every pearl of expression

Dances in the sunset of deep meanings.

Silence will now be your muse,

Inviting you to heed the message

Of the One who created you in His image.

I heard it in the whispering wind,

While caressing the potency of the moon

And speaking in tongues of fire

To the excellence of tides.

Do you hear it too?
