Your Endless Spark

I believe that, deep within you,

There lives an endless spark,

The centre of your being.

And this spark burns brightly,

However hidden it may seem

Or beyond reach it may feel

It is there!

My hope, my dream is for you to listen quietly,

To listen for the inner voice,

Which longs, yearns, even aches to speak.

Its message is your inner truth.

If you take the time to sit quietly,

To go within,

Open your innermost self and listen,

You will hear this voice.

It will speak to you – a word will form.

In the quietness of your inner self,

Listen to this word, hold it,

Cradle it like a newborn babe

In depths of your very being.

And, this word is the first of many

That will come to you,

That will begin to flow

Into a river of feelings and of knowings.

This river is the poem of your true self,

It is the song of your soul.

Indeed, your soul has many poems,

Many songs, and

Each has a message for you.

It is time to listen

To your inner voice,

To your poem, and

To sing your song,

For your Endless Spark

Is speaking to you.
