Children of the Sun XIV
```
With the expected birth
Into the solar family
Of another child
Siblings will again shift
To drift further away
From the place of their birth
And into the comfort
Of newly found orbits

Paths I, iii

                
Notice the solely unique in each,
   For the preciousness of every one
   Is special and rare, a beauty
   To behold in the noonday sun;
As pebbles along the shore reach
   Out, hoping to hear another call. . .
      An individual striving for name,
      To be part of the whole, yet free,
      Quite different though of the same.
   The unity shared before the fall
Is ours to feel, learn and teach. . .
   Seeing One in many, large in small,
   We grow to find the ALL in ALL.

“The Heavens appear”
```
The Heavens appear
As the cloud cover dissipates.

Full Moon
Rising in the valley
Of mountain peaks.
Light—
Reflecting on calm river.

Fog forms veils
On the valley floor—
Eerily midnight approaches;
April Full Moon.

Adieu Once Again

The veil of history is lifting.
     The mind’s eye opens. . .
          Seeing, feeling, re-experiencing
          The lives we have shared
          And the innumerable times
               Our paths have crossed;
     The past events race by,
          As we, the minor characters
          In the eternally flowing
               Play of life—
               Intermingle.

“We have passed this way before”
```
We have passed this way before
On our journey to the lake.
We have seen the rapids,
The falls and the pools
Of life,
Of Man,
Yet we continue our trek
For the cycle
Never ends.

Immaculate Conception III

Undivided    Unconditioned
Incorruptible Light pulses
Through a possible Future Age
Into the timelessness of Now
To nourish the Child and its host
As they both rapidly mature
Through transformational stages
To ultimately coexist
In the Oneness of Cosmic Man

Children of the Sun III

Being third child removed
From his solar parents
Mars soon experienced
A growing family
With the birth of a child
That some would call Deimos

He patiently watched
The surface of his planet
As it slowly began to form
The crucial environments
For the development
Of a wide variety
Of plants and animals

Paths II, iii
```
In His name, worshipping
Idols of mortal man,
We blindly march to war
Creating hell on earth
For faceless enemies
We’ve never seen before.

Relationships change
Between student and teacher
When autumn transforms

Green to gold departing leaves
Feeding the earth      Becoming
