Transcendence Poem by Almedia Knight-Oliver
Transcendence
Seeds, berries, and foods in short supply
flocks of feathered friends made a V line
to a place of plenty.
The existing regime idealism-over time-
calls for changes in the status quo.
Ethics and morals of our leaders “ism” in its
existence has to be comprised or discarded.
Before...an evening star stood alone
in the shadow of the sun.
But on this blustery winter day an
era of change is on the way.
A morning star rises in glory to overshadow
despair, shed light on hopelessness, and presents
a gleam of hope on healthcare and education,
jobs and housings, stable families...even
an open hand to friends and foes alike.
So that the whole world can live
on a well-preserved planet.
For he proclaims the realities of challenges we face.
Now, we’re ready to help lead by showing
respect to a medley of people,
their values and beliefs that each
will have a measure of happiness.
For we’re a beautiful collage
Gays and lesbians, Blacks and Whites,
Asians and Arabs, minorities and majorities,
believers and non-believers!
Now on this day (01/20/09)
we recognize our individual wings,
Collectively rising, fixing not your
eyes on the past, but on the timeless
words of The Transcendent One.
‘open hands to friends and foes alike./So that the whole world can live/on a well-preserved planet’ Utopian concept…only possible when 'my' 'me' 'myself' 'I' etc get obliterated and disappear … And thro’ your panacea ‘The Transcendent One.’ ‘Unsion Montage’ 10+. Ms. Nivedita UK
The sentiments are admirable and eloquent, Almedia. By the way, how are you nowadays?
Did you send this to him.... you ought to... your writing is good, and he would appreciate this... you could help be the change you want in the world... sometimes the littlest thing makes the biggest thing happen.
