The light of reason
And the Higher Light
And there is sanity in the light
The fire of passion
And that is Love
The flow of passionate life
Believe in the River of Crossing Over
Believe in the dawn
Horizon of the Dawn of New Day
Light penetrates darkness
Untying knots of shadows
Revealing the criminal plots of hatred and cruelty
Those who hold power by the throat
Their crooked designs
The plans of terror exposed
In light evil doers are gray
With the gray shades of inhumanity
In Higher Light crime concealed is shown and known transparently
Weapons of violence, of oppression, destruction
Are forged into farmer’s tools
Take these seeds in hand, trust what is good, and garden
The Indigo Warrior is alive to everything living
Alertly responding to the colors of nuances, diversities, and needs
In the Spirit of Balance, she sings the inspiration of the world
The anthems of empathy!
Child of Higher Light
(Beautiful is the voice of truth) calls out
Look, mother, look
Today the Earth is happy!
Profiteers and practitioners of hatred, tyranny and war
Are blown away into dust – Blown off
By the living breath of cosmic harmony
In the first twilight of liberation
We sit together in luminescent rings
Sharing stories of healing, and the love songs of freedom
Into the bonfires of communion, kinships and community
We toss the dry leaves of bitter memories
Burning away, even recent shadows of suffering
Believe in the vulnerability of change
In the nesting light of Earth lodging stars
And in the heart of the Earth shaped human heart
The starlight within reach in each of us
The candle-heart of ascending wings
And today (even now, in this tremulant moment) we can start, revive, embrace
The Season of the White Rose.
