Quiet Lights Love Riot

Beloved wondrous Light of Understanding

Your warm glow of balm wisdom was beyond comprehending

 

You flipped clipped ripped all my past’s painful branding

No bile vending vile bending guile rending, just trust trending

 

You answered every query from every life

Then my greed speedily decreed I needed more lore

Curiosity’s desire for omniscience ran rife

I wanted all of Light’s infinity to explore

 

My synapses mapped clapped dapped snapped then napped

Trapped in body, lapped by Light, in Love wrapped

 

Ra’s shawl atop pine throbbing scintillant phosphorescence

Overcome by your blinding hug, now a new man 

Singing thinking drinking in life’s tinkling luminescence

Earthly plan abandoned for worthy burdened clan
