How do I give a name
to a feeling. . .
to a knowledge. . .
never before experienced.
the feeling that
the air has been taken
and
replaced with the
purest of bliss
that I now inhale and infuse
into the vessel
of His pleasure
the feeling that
golden light has
replaced the
blood and lymph
that once flowed through
veins, arteries and capillaries—
spilling itself into
surrounding tissues
giving a glow to
the humblest of objects—
a coffee cup, a pad of paper,
a bold linked copper chain around a right wrist
the inevitability of knowledge
that comes from the deepest trenches of the soul—
the place where there are no lies
the knowledge that a
subtle
yet magnificent
transformation
is taking place
in my
heart
mind
soul
indeed
in the very core of being
how do I give a name
what does the caterpillar
call a butterfly?
to a feeling. . .
to a knowledge. . .
never before experienced.
