What If (Part 2)

The poem 'What If' is finished now and I would like to share a few more verses. There are more to come but I like to believe that I do not overly abuse the Blogging ideal with bloated posts.

Behind this poem lay a number of ideas. Ideals, faith, and the asking of the question 'What if...' is a powerful way to live. I try to avoid making statements, and strive to ask questions. Questions when asked from a place of grace are a beautiful way to explore the world. Like a blind person using their cane to feel their way around, people are rarely offended when they are gently tapped. And a question posed in grace knows that the leg is there before the cane even moves.

What If (Part 2)
What if knowing Source within,
is right hand to love for all?
Then surely we can know
flaws are intended call?

What if the eyes of grace,
withhold judgment from sight?
How worthy are aspersions,
on religion’s sordid blights?

What if love is beyond,
perceptions, good and bad?
What if events of death, are
learning to be had?

What if Source is truly all,
expect perhaps in our choice?
What if we chose Divine filter,
for our eyes, and rejoiced?

What if we were blind to judgment,
saw simple before perceived?
Would we not lose complication,
drawn within to achieve?

What if our introspection,
could be peaceful place?
Would our inward glance,
learn from acceptance and grace?

What if Divine refuses nothing,
and wants only our return,
with the benefit of experience,
and all that we’ve learned?

... to be continued.
