Did you hear my voice?

 

Did you listen, did you understand?

 

Mortal before you came out onto the firmament

 

I taught you

 

These were the truths then, now and forever

 

They are clear, concise and forever unchanging

 

Truth is pure and is luminous for all to see

 

Take heed of what I say; learn it well

 

For what you hear is the same for all to hear

 

You are your brother’s keeper and upon this you shall be judged

 

The contents of your heart are your record and it is for all shall to see

 

That when you reach out to touch another you are keeping my word

 

When you taste the salt of ones tears

 

You shall know the bitterness of despair, the pain of loss, the hurt of a word or an act

 

Then too when you drink the sweetness of a spring rain

 

You will know the exhilaration of triumph, the love of another,

 

The depth of a child’s smile

 

When the perfume of the undefiled world surrounds you, you shall know peace

 

Last but not least you will know that which is real and that what is true

 

If you have kept our covenant

 

Your dust shall become the seed to populate the stars

 

For they too shall also know the truth

 

It shall be imprinted upon them
