Vital Resonance
CLVI.
Yes - from the smallest entity to infinity, from the mind to the heart, from philosophy to science, in music and in light . . . there is . . . Resonance.
~©nhh
Trembling with music
Of the spheres,
One love endures
Beyond its vibrant melody
And brings its song to me
Borne on resonating strings.

~ And This Is My Beloved ~
Recollections of paradise
Projections of perfection
Reflections of strife.
Convections of life.
A soul.
Behold the soul, -
Resplendent imagery of the soul.
Expectations of beauty
Anticipations of justice
Aspirations of love
Intimations of eternity.
A soul.
A soul
A mind
A heart.
Words, symbols, dreams,
Hopes, mem'ries, schemes;
Epicenters of resonance,
Living, quivering inner tremors.
A soul.
A soul.
A miracle.
A man.

THE BATTLE
Destined for eternity,
Yet the soul shrinks
Before a mortal sneer;
It flees from finite scorn.
Fear stifles faith, multiplies fears.
Knowledge births hope when it appears.
Anti-matter proves naught.
Life-matter exceeds aught
But baffling convolutions
On which the doubts are borne.
Meaninglessness threatens
Shadows posing as meaning.
Then restlessness stirs.
When confusion clouds,
Enshrouds and blurs,
Futile debates ensue.
Which has meaning? Which is nothing?
All, - eternally extinct, expired, - except the true.
