Poem: "Divine Darkness" By Eric Gajewski

 "Divine Darkness"

           Poem By: Eric Gajewski from the book F.O.S.

Divine Darkness, Oh! sweet Nothingness
In which I did findThee
Rest beneath the flesh and senses.

A soul now gifted, being separated from time.
This hidden life working so hard to be still
Amidst the noise and clatter of mind.
Did Your Eternal Fountain begin to fill
Suspended in Dark ,plunging deeply inward.
Upwardly rising at the same time by Your power.
Perched high on a house overlooking all like an eagle.
Who can do this work required to find Him ,for ye must embark
To continue the journey within, in silence, solitude, quiet and arriving as a nothing....

in His Divine Dark
