Sacred Poetry Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

It is the nature of the Soul
To hold the torch of knowledge
And teach us the most sacred words and actions
Words that are naked of any worldly tattoos
Words like Hope, Faith and Love
Are empty of all the man-made flavors
And have no scientific explanations
Pointing directly to the heart
To direct and renew the Spirit
To purify and refresh the mind
To sanctify and make the heart sacred

It is the nature of words
To put on exotic feathers
And make one want to dance Salsa
But this sacred words are tongues of fire
That ignites our heart into a bigger purpose
Their flames are too bright
Illuminating the entirety of eternity

Another set of sacred words and their actions
Humility, kindness, compassion…etc
Disrupts the web of selfishness
And unveils the path of light
Between one human being and another
Together, we have a billion watts of light
To carry us into the realm of Love

It is this Love that has the power to unite us
And make us dissolve from our artificial entanglements
Our Egos, individualism, competition and selfishness
It is this Love that is the path of light
The illuminated light that was present before creation
The unending beginning and the everlasting end
Love is too sacred, holy and sanctified for us to fathom
Love is God and God is Love
