“Faithful Promise”
If I knew, I would
Share the secrets of this Universe
With you
If I could, I would
Voyage with you
To the depths
Of inner wisdom
If I heard that you
Had entered the cave of enlightenment
I would drop to my knees and exalt
This sacred green Earth we walk on
If I saw the light
Of illumination in your eyes
I would sit beneath the Bodhi tree and pray:
For all souls’ deliverance
Into your world
Of seeing One.
