Stretching Forth - Inspirational Poetry by Nathifa

Stretching forward, taking your hand
confiding in your personal stand
Strengthening our position to speak with courage
Knowing our duty to accelerate light,
which nourish All souls in celestial might

I stretch my hands to receive you, my friend
To join my mission
To put all suffering on earth to an end
To conspire to build links which bridge you and I
To transform our mission beyond earth and sky
To conspire to build links that bridge now and then
To experience a moment without made-up appeal
My hands are itching...my feet are stirring
Excited to move on my newfound journey
Meeting new souls along the way,
to illumine my footsteps
to enlighten truth's way

Inspired by truth and an inner vision
sanctioned by atoms born of earth and sky
that resonate peace, in our sleep, we deny
I confront new challenges to make whole my lost faith
that propell me forward to adventures yet gleaned

Step by step, we revisit our lives
refreshed and awakened w/old hopes realigned
to arrive at this landmark centered in peace
to reflect on the gifts of life's difficult task
to uncover false dreams, to submit, to unmask copyright © Nathifa 2004
