The light of Understanding

 

The light of our human understandings meet in conversation,

Reveal a glimering twilight,

A dawning placeless, timeless, place-time.

 

Dancing iridiscence, 

Shimmering sun-humus,

Reveal the soft glowing

flowing-between.

 

Love, trust and humility,

Fuse in meaning,

Suffuse each other,

Reflect one another, 

And manifest in the other.

 

What do we recognise in this Makan Makeen?

What do we realise when our questions embrace each other and fuse into questioning questions?

What heart-knowing words unfurl,

Humming the silent melody of the blooms of our growing shared understanding?
