SANDINE F. K. WADE

The task is to break out
from the tight, constricted,
egocentric circle of one's self
and reach out, latch on, catch on,
with all one's might
to the calm, unhurried revolutions of Mind—
to swing out into the clear, cool light of the stars,
and gaze out in wonder at a new world,
a new heaven and a new earth,
upheld by the pillars of Principle,
made beautiful by the music of Soul,
strengthened by the courage and audacity of Spirit,
sparkling with the vigor and freshness of Life,
illumined by Truth,
and synchronized to the deep, unfailing
heartbeat of Love.
