the plane
upon which
everything rises
is vast
and full of color
and yet
white and serene
as the richness
of all that
we know to be real
meets the light
of all than can be
and together
without much fanfare
they coexist
two planes
the tactile
and the divine
that which we see
and hear
feel, taste and smell
and that which we know
which defies description
baffles the senses
but which drives us through
keeps us moving
down the many twists
of the road to light
a road with many adventures
that ultimately leads
to our sense of one

one wind
one fire
one earth
one water
one spirit.
