Analysis of Arrival
In places of color
In spaces of black white
With energies balanced
With mind and heart
Unchallenged,
By water and fire together
By earth and air together
The heart and mind together
The journey willingly start
Unchallenged,
In places of matter
In spaces small and smaller
Without fault or fracture
Without a darkening of light
Unchallenged.
The union is joyful
A time of celebration
Bringing a calm
A state of perfection.
Rest in this place
Settle and practice in this space
Be complete on The Way
Be sustained through each day
Find peace
Know peace
On the journey taken
Have it all
Unchallenged.
