The atmosphere settled to a calm,
Suddenly, no more wind, now warm with a feeling of balm,
The mist deepened, then, a disembodied voice,
“Ah….My turn at last, now you have seen both sides of a choice,
If only you would open your eyes,
Cut yourself loose from your earthly ties,
Dear Heart and Brain, both thinking of your interests the same,
Yet, they are poles apart, and as so, will always remain.
Come with me……
See what a wonderful being you are really”.
Instant euphoria…..I was free,
Floating high above the earth, everything beneath me,
I know now that I am my own spirit,
Feeling so beautiful, so light, I can hardly believe it,
“You see”….Once more the disembodied voice,
“More than you knew, now, how much more of a choice?
I cannot control you, I am only your mind,
Between Brain and Heart, only a mediator of a kind,
We three are only a part of your wonderful being,
You are also of Soul and Spirit, as you are now feeling,
We, are only here to guide you upon this world,
Feel yourself now, in all five parts, a miracle unfurled”.
Then, as these final words were spoke,
I was back on this earth, in bed, just awoke,
Gone now was the keen wind that blew,
Replaced by a warm feeling, I was home…I knew,
Knowing things could never be any other way,
Knowing with all my being, I was going to stay,
So clear to me now, the once blurred line in the shifting sand,
A knowing, of no longer being…..A stranger in a strange land.
