The Veil Between Worlds

by papa55mike

a fluid veil
stands before me
reflecting the future

time forging on
ripples the fabric
dancing across eternity

placing my hand
in the material
unfolds the present

the veil parts
revealing many paths
to astonishing worlds

my spirit soars
into the darkness
searching for revelation

galaxies surround me
on this journey
soaring through space

colors begin here
coral, silver, turquoise
encircle each star

a mammoth nebula
draws me closer
to my questions

what is truth
what is purpose
what is love

my journey slows
when a face
begins to appear

the nebula asks
what are you
seeking my friend?

do we exist
or
are we dreaming?

your truth
lives within
your spirit

lifting my eyes
from the microscope
an answer emerges

we are the center
of all things loved
by our Creator

I recently read an article in which the opening read: "When we look at the stars, we are an amoeba gazing at the ocean." What a profound statement. A single-cell organism, gazing at its world. A microscope is a gateway to another world. In a way, it shows us how small we really are, and how big our God is.

Many thanks for stopping by to read.
Have a great day, and God bless.
