RAINBOW MAKER<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In linear thought… life is short, day is light, night is dark,<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

rain is sad,<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

young is good and old is not, <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

God ?… in church.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

Think religion, but not of light. <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

Be the man, be the woman but no more.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

Black is black and white is white,<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

humans walk but do not fly,<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

Seven colors has a rainbow we were told,<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

seven and not one more…<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

Emancipation.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

In the dimension of the creative fields, none of these are so.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

Life and death, God and light, day and night,<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

man and woman, young and old, black and white, <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

rain and shine <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

are one.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

Celestial, luminous body of prisms,<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

reflecting beams of light<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

creators of euphoric rainbows<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

in which humans do fly. <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

Oh luminary splendor, brilliantly colored, lyrical and tender,<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

spectrum of fascinating quality and appealing hope,<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

illusory and mysterious light…<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

let it be in you, be in me and be in all <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

for the sake of\u00c2\u00a0 <\/span>humankind.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

Of ancient perpetuity I am,<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

observer of all unconscionable time,<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

simple in form, joyful and of ardent love. <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

The physical, mental, and spiritual experiences that I am<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

constitute a continuous creative existence<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

exhibiting the wisdom of the ages to all<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

a oneness,<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

subsequent<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

consequent<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

full life!<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

The Rainbow Maker<\/i><\/span> <\/i><\/p>\n
