Open the world
with your secret eye;
return to the place
before you began dreaming –

Before thoughts
before images
before the dramas took hold;
before ‘I’ and ‘mine’,
before action,
before Act One,
and even before the Prologue

There is a vast world beyond all this
unexplored-
immense yet intimate,
another country,
where your spirit can soar

Open the world
with your heart
and surrender completely –
fear will become a distant memory,
anger, grief and hatred
no longer a part of your anatomy

Return to the place
before you began dreaming,
before the story began,
before the seasons had meaning,
before we lost the gift of sight,
before we began dreaming.
