Veils Within Veils

Veils within veils within veils...
Is it not our mind, itself, that generates the veilings?

Desires, hopes, expectations... none of these are the naked seeing...
they are still the veilings...  They delight us for awhile
like passing dreams... all the seemings...

Undress my mind, Beloved, of all seemings...
for i would come to see You & enjoy You fully with all veilings parted
and embrace Your naked splendors in all their ambience & fullsomeness...

Do You dance?  Do You sing?  Play my naked longing as Your hymn of praise...
Has not Your beauty entranced me across the ages into the timelessness
of just fully *be*ing with You?  You *are* the timelessness,
the entrance into forever.  What infinite delight it becomes
to get behind the Final Veil, to joy in Your deepest inner *yes!*

In the fullness of our soul*speak's naked baring, heart*deep's sharing
we *know* it is You... for Your Spirit speaks simply, yet forcefully,
purely, yet puissantly, plainly, yet with beauty and truth,
tenderly, yet intensely, passionately, yet compassionately...
& it flows & keeps flowing, this wellspringing of the holy...

Thus we know You... for that which is deepest within us
resonates (beyond words, beyond defining) with Your Loving...

And Your loving says *live!* -- for the Fullness!
