Family likeness

Qualities are the fibers
of Mind's ideas,
the sacred elements
whose colors spill

throughout the fabric
of God's man,
the Father's imaging
as His son.

Nothing stops man
from being God's glory:
Nothing stops Soul's hues
from being true in him.

To praise you, friend,
is to praise Truth's artwork
where Mind is always
interpreting itself

through the son's imaging.
So Christ reveals Soul's
texture where you are
already in my seeing.

Through all that we're being, then,
in Soul-sought ways,
we discover one another
as epiphanies of praise.

GODFREY JOHN
