Eternal Marriage Poem by Richard (Narad) Eggenberger

Eternal Marriage

I wear the nuptial band, the soul's embrace
Made physical in dense matter's world,
But in this denseness is there still not space
For ether, fire, God, in atom's mould?

The body's sensuous attraction palls
Before the light in the beloved's eyes
And something in the inner nature calls
Remembrance of those lost eternities.

A recognition from the vasts of space
And conscious union of souls no longer blind,
In unknown bodies knowledge of a place
Beyond the settled precincts of the mind.

In a blue-white flame was forged the ring of love
No force can separate nor death remove.
