Held in your arms of descending rays, in golden glow of sleeping days
Wrapped in a dark blanket of night, awaiting your coming with morning light
I feel your kiss in the breeze, hear your soft voice in the rustling trees
Your footsteps in each lapping wave, joined from their birth to crashing grave
As each wave falls another begins, raising and falling as perpetual twins
All a part of the same sea, separate but one in their unity
We're in the leaves, every drop in the sea, I am you, you are me
Time has no meaning we have always been and will always be
I'm in the air you breath, in each child you did conceive
We are light, we are the sun, in the stars, in everyone

Yes, KP's in the air I breathe. Pity it's stale and stagnant, and whiffs of botox! heehee. Did you know that Spinoza chappie?
Thanks Orchi for the review and understanding. Yes the devil is in the details and no Baruch ran with a much younger group than mine but I did hear about him. Known as a trouble maker by the clergy one of those pantheists I think
Very nice.
I'm not too sure Spinoza was wrong in his thinking, everything does point that way.
It's just the evolution bit, humans moved a bit too fast in natures garden.
Thank you Paul for the read and review. Yes it is the view that I hold subject to modifications. Your comment is most valued

A fine write, sorenbarrett.
Thanks so much Jerry. I appreciate the read and most kind comment
Beautiful.
Thank you so much Thomas for your read and kind word
Reading this, Soren, I felt that deep calm of dissolving into something larger. You’ve written the purest form of belonging. That line...“As each wave falls another begins”...embodies the whole poem for me. Life and spirit, rising and returning, perfectly said, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
Thank you Tristan I appreciate your read and comment as always and this time as much as any others you captured the meaning in this poem. I was brought up in a rather strict religious house that made no sense as I grew older why personify nature when it is right before us and we are all part of it. Why diminish the value of anything in it out of arrogance when we are it as well.
Indeed! You are most welcome, my friend!
The way you have so masterfully captured our unique oneness is not beyond me .. because I feel so much a part of it .. Still, I sincerely hope you get my drift through this brain fog of mine .. and as I anxiously wait to hop on board one of the next incoming waves .. Take care and write on while I'm taking a break 😎⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👍
Thanks Neville I always appreciate your writes and will await your return have and great time
