Within of each  of us There sounds a call! The key within the keyhole Quietly hoping we will notice. Are we curious? Do we wonder? What are the secret notes? Calling us from the wind? Yet whispering to us from within. The corridors seem lonely Am I the only one standing Alone in this great hall? The fear is a lump pounding in my throat. To turn the key and open the door What is on the other side? Everyone has run away So quickly, they are nowhere to be found. Where do I go? Why did they hide? Quietly, I wonder. Yet an Angelic chorus Sings, "Come Follow Me!!" In six part harmony. It is calming. I desire to taste its sweetness. I turned the key Stepping through the open door What stood before me I had never seen before! It is a tree! Seven Roots and Seven Branches! As old as the earth itself! In amazement, I stood, looking high into the sky To the very top of the tree Soaring into Heaven Most High. What can this be? Is there a rhyme or reason? I see only a tree! Or is it?! The song continued It's sweet melody growing Closer and closer. Flapping white wings Fluttering from branch to branch A beautiful white Dove Sings her melodic enchanting song. Each note embracing my heart With love, peace and understanding. Oh the Beauty! The rapture and the peace!   The flowing Love between Opened my eyes to the wonders Of all the beautiful stars shining Within each galaxy Upon her golden crown. Oh how, I had longed for such an embrace! As the tide hugs the shores and the sea kisses the horizon. Gently her touch Caressed my face. She is so familiar For my body, was born of her body My eyes, born of her eyes. My ears, my muscles, and sinuses Born of her ears, her muscles, and sinuses. From her I have come. To her I will return.   The Amma of my Spirit, My beautiful Dove!

The Dove

This is about personal spiritual growth and progression within "The Light." Mother Earth is the mother of each physical body on the earth. We are all made of her soil, water, air, and elements. When we look into another earthling's eyes we are also seeing a our mother through the other earthling. In this piece, the Dove's symbolism is the same as the Early Essenes beliefs about the Dove, Mother Earth and our connection to both; finding our resting place within the arms of Mother Earth.
