Hall Of Mirrors Poem by Raimi Stranger

A hall of mirrors set in time
aroused
the fire of earth
insidious illusion so sublime
and we induced
its birth
doors open
doors close
so many wander
unopposed
a lifetime long and grey
in circles
thought
on riddles old
some wander as they may
but others come in from the cold
a narrow way
till fateful day
of lust undone
by stories old
when all will come to
kiss the sun...
so death where is your sting
from wedding to our sin?
-for open too to many who
the wider door
doth fling

but one so fair
on eagles wing
and wise
he flies
yet 'cross the skies
undoes
for few
their sure demise

What riddle this set true today:
Two ways to One
Two earths
three heavens
peace at Last...

as first we fast
as last be first
the first be last
and yet all thirst
this rest in peace
for love of love
all things above

love freely given
we receive
free give again
the joy of heaven

life bounteous then
to all in need,
through love
be life to which we're freed
so at the end we all will thrive
for everything
that now we give

and tears now shed
will turn to blood
yet God
will call them from the mud
first feel the fire
few
as they could
as know and do
that which is good
and so the saga wends its way
as all will live
and love
one day...
