"THE TAO OF THE JUNGLE" - Poem by Alexandre Gianechini de Araújo

THE TAO OF THE JUNGLE


Poem by Alexandre Gianechini de Araújo


Recesses of the soul
Secure retreat
Absences


It is at this time
Of apparent death and inaction
That happens the alchemy of life
The metamorphoses and transformations


In the dark is where occurs
The rebirths of the body and soul
A long period of gestation
Where movements are hidden
And take place away from prying eyes


(Divine Designs)


It is at this time
That the new being that will
Enter the world waits
Until his new body is ready


It is through this physical vehicle
That he will manifest all attributes
Of divine perfection
In the image and likeness of its creator


When we want something to be perfect
We have no hurry, we trust
We give time to time, for
Like DaVinci, he makes genius works of Art


So, we rely on the Course
on The Way
And on the Tao
Of the Jungle


The long dark night, so feared
It's actually a great mother
The Lady of Life
Queen of time
Of the Beggining and the End


She is the protector of seeds
And the unborn
The portal of Rebirth
That souls cross to come to this world.


So,
Long live the Queen of Life
Long live to the Night
In all its splendor
