What if all of this life
is but one grand rehearsal
for a life beyond
the round sphere
that encases us:
this egg shell
of light and dark,
painted on the inside
with sunshine
and stars?
What if here we learn
to dance with clay feet
through all pain and resistance
so we may know better
how to dance there through pure space,
singing in clouds of Light,
sailing through stars?
What if each prayer we utter in the dark
teaches our spirit-hearts
how to bear immeasurable
beauty with humility in pure Light,
being clear about the true origin
of everything?
And what if each act of Love
that moves us out beyond
the small circles of selfishness
anchors our high and future self
into limitless fields of galaxies
and stars, and countless worlds
in radiant spheres that expand beyond
all limits of time, space
and imagination?
What if?
