The Eternal - A Poem

by Kiernan Antares



Ah Rumi…
the One who understands
what it is to be in love
   with the Beloved.

Some call the Beloved Him, He, the Father,
others call it Her, She, the Mother,
yet others the Great Spirit, the Creator,
   the Universe, the One Source.

They are all the same; the One Heart,
the One Mind, One Thought
   which birthed all.

The love runs deep.
It is eternal.
It gives life.
It can be found in the beauty and uniqueness
   of each raindrop, each snowflake.

In every gust or quiver of wind.
The marvel of a bird as it sings or spreads its wings
   to take flight.

The stars that shine their rays of light,
 for us to bear witness
   to our origins.

All the flavours of life;
pain, suffering, laughter, joy -
spectrums of the earth school
   urging our souls to grow.

Ah Rumi…
   the One who understands.
