Thought
Beyond imagination universe vast
Grasping frame, we stand aghast
Whirling spirals, spin like dots
On canvas black, countless shiny spots
Nearest disc reached in thirty billion years
And by that time maybe disappears
Senses only catch scenes scattered wide
The greater truth beyond blind spots will hide
Those who know totality and secret of it all
Will see interval space as skin of overall
Cosmic body of great Lord to opened eye will see
That the sparkling jewels above are His accessory
A thousand arms, a thousand eyes, a thousand legs and heads
Looks to us like filaments of luminous heavenly threads
Quantum leaps of joy as vision cleared like dawning days
Divine parts are playing parts in seeming vast arrays
Prayer
O Lord, in my small exchanges of love with Thee, my ignorance blinds me to your overwhelming totality; yet in your chosen moments of grace, you give me, your helpless child, a glimpse of your grandeur to elevate my soul. Grant me this from time to time when my mind lags behind and gets dragged down.
