They wait to rob Him
of the treasure they say He carries.
He approaches –
the rustle of silken cloth
and whispering of Love-Light messages abounding
on His never-ending journey.
“Hello”, the wiser thief hails,
stepping swiftly onto the pathway;
the other advances slowly
in the fragrance of sweet olive trees;
their orange-yellow corollas
teem like Starlings in Tanzania.
“I want your treasure”!,
the thief orders, vexing his prey, he thinks.
“We got the story; the gem you carry…
I’m going to make it mine”.
“Mine as well”. chimed his rapacious pal
with a gleam in his eyes.
“The Gem I carry is Within,
and sharing Its Light is what I do”.
Neither thief comprehended the Love.
“Well…ain’t you the bird walking”,
the wiser thief says, raising light-fingers,
and both thieves
spill laughter like children in the face of clowns.
Then, sullen, both release a threat, they think,
to the One without fear of low vibrations
as Celestial Birds in Light formations
lift Him into his future.

Dear One – Your verse has a special meaning to me. The thieves, as expressed as my negative past experiences, lurk in the shadows of my emotions and reactions (engendered in this and other lives) in order to rob me of any virtue or moral integration attained through the learning and usage of the principles expounded by the Lighted teachings of Unarius! We are continually confronted by the ravenous wolfs of spitefulness, jealousy, hatred and conflict!
Your words bespeak of our lower nature attempting to turn Harmony and Love into ugliness – born of an Ego which was built upon these depravities. And yet, you finish with Hopefulness and Light – A Light within our Soul which overcome these carnivorous beasts, and rise up to soar about the Universe of Wisdom – and to eventually become one of the ‘Celestial Birds in Light’!
Greetings, Tom! I have seen the beasts digging deep, grave-size holes for me; when I am lifted over one, there is another, but I’m not going to fall (in) from the Light!
Greetings Dear One, My heart beats in unison with my dear Brother and Sister. I could not have described any better than what you both have put into words. My Love and Light Always!
