I stand before thee - unmasked
Naked of any costumes
With piercing eyes I observe
The transformation thou undergo.

And as the winds of change
are in the clear, bearing reality
I feel the touch of the waves of love
Gushing in thy womb
There, where all life resides in safety
Depository of tranquility, serenity
There - I will find repose.

Grow thou spark of life, grow
Embrace thy inclinations
Engage in thy purpose of being
Thou art love
Thou art peace
Thou art, the beauty of us all.
