I have knelt in front of Almighty God

Whose face of a man I did not see

But an all imposing energy

That gave a reflection back to me

It felt my nature of which to be

In human form it took its shape

An indication to me

Of what I would soon be



Then I was led away from the altar

In front of which I knelt

And went through a door

Where bright light I saw

As born into this world

I fell

Through the waters of life

I came to a wife

Strong in all her convictions

My mother in the making

Of the illusion cast upon me

And the father I knew

From a world unknown to you

So remembered in my heart

As true

Who told me he would be

In the world I was sent to

As a guide for me to see

That life is not the human form

Of which we perceive it to be

Life is far more than just this stop

Along the path of eternity.
