The Alchemist - God

Poem

The Alchemist

...

The alchemist of shadow and of light.

Shines from on high for all to see.

Even if they do so with a hand

covering half the truth.

So that they are not blinded.

So that we are not blinded.

Because the Great Director is not subdued.

Since He is absolute love.

He casts His rays generously

upon the nets of our heart.

He wants them to become veils and then vapor.

So that we may see clearly.

What?

The Tree of Life.

Which is adorned with various

and distinct ornaments.

Colors and scents for your heart to rejoice in.

If it wants to, naturally.

Each one is unique and necessary.

With its own texture.

Like the ripples of a leaf

that, together with others, composes a harmonious whole.

And when it falls in autumn

or when it is stored away for the next Christmas

it remains unforgettable.

Until it loves again.

May it be able to love always.

Ekphrastic
