Unitarianism

In the sacred heart of separation,

There echoes a lucky message, a reverberation.

Childhood memories journey, timorous and small,

In the paddy fields of laughter, we recall.

 

Dreams, once vibrant, have gone astray,

Heroes' faces fading in the light of day.

Awakening grief, drear loss, envelopes the land,

Only sadness softly whispers, strength in hand.

 

Learning heart endurance, a lesson hard and true,

Turn again, let feet spring agilely, as if on cue.

Palms extended, reaching for beloved guides,

In the middle garden, where tranquillity abides.

 

Beneath the barrow, the mighty oak does stand,

Charmed light colours unfurl, a sight so grand.

Blossoms fiercely beautiful in their silent show,

Pre-empt joy, teaching wise responsibility we must know.

 

Spellbound, remain, amidst the throng,

One alone in nature, where we belong.

Heartfelt gratitude, a secret shared with the grand,

The intermediary of the universe, in our hand.

 

Errant derision, banished from our sight,

Drink deep of wine, feel the cosy electricity of light.

Water, the essence of life, and spirits breath,

Teach us to be gentle, kind, in life and death.

 

Resilience weaves a thread through our being,

Love: the healing heart remedy, all-seeing.

Draw me closer to this universal truth,

Destiny whispers of a deeper Union, in sooth.

 

No shortcuts can trace this transformation wide,

Veil of transcendence, in which we confide.

Moon, star, universe, divine centre aglow,

Within each of us, a divine self we know.

 

In Unitarianism, this truth we ascertain,

Every path is different, yet destination the same.

In the vast, cosmic dance, we play our part,

Bound by a universal song, beating in our heart.
