SLIPPING AWAY
Slipping into darkness that’s easy
Finding your way can be hard
Knowing which is my way
But can you see in darkness?
Slipping down the slope is easy
Stepping on lose rocks is risky
But climbing has its rewards
As long you’re anchored in truth
Finding your way is finding the truth
But truth may not settle well with you
Finding yourself without the light
Is guessing and endlessly dreaming
Slipping into light does not happen
One can only slip away from its realm
Turning on the light is always costly
Darkness needs no effort or grasp
Darkness is void, nothing without light
Darkness holds no bill and no account
Life is the power of light, which never dies
It goes on and never slips away
Choices are of light, while it’s still close by
Turning on the interest must not return void
Does not slip away or rolls down the slope
It climbs a slippery slope and grasps
Fire always rises and alights above
But when it dies down it retreats to its chambers
Do you know the source and its dwelling place?
It is the same as never slipping away

THE MELODY OF SEVENTHS
Lord, give me time that I might not waste it
Give me your grace and let me grow
Like a tree by the brook, or better yet
Let your living water carry me on
Lord, give me more beauty, but also a mirror
Let me see therein but only your reflection
The fading pictures of the bygone days
Remain in the shadows of yesteryears
Lord, give me light on those cloudy days
From down below I’ll light up the sky
Let it spring back off those darkened clouds
And fall on those still groping in shades
Ticking time does not exist and yet you keep its beat
This measured rhythm of sevenths fits but only with you
Pauses in space, fixed seasons on earth call for my attention
“Meet with Me” minus the meddle of man’s interpretation
Let the rhythm of sevenths become also yours so follow My line
One day you will stop counting strokes of the outpaced time
You will forget and yet you will know everything that is
Everything that sings the melody of sevenths in My eternal bliss
