Our Time Being Human
As all the moments pass
Something like an unseen light,
formless, enduring,
a boundless conscious silence
across the Universe,
knows all the stars
and every human heart,
and weaves through our being
bringing awareness
deep within the silence
words can’t describe.
A spacious consciousness
as large as the Universe
is always inside us,
knowing what it is to be human,
and every moment we can touch into
this infinite silence
and bring something of its beauty
into our heart.
Through our eyes
the Universe knows itself
as all the moments pass,
and while we can still see
the sun and moon and stars
we can find its conscious silence
inside us,
and bring some meaning
into our time
being human.
