It's an And World

So saith Julian*:

Truth sees . . .

Sees what?
All?
Or nothing?
Sees how little it sees?
Knowing itself to be so small,
it cares not how little it knows,
rejoicing in the enough, the sufficiency
of its tiny knowing and calling that good and good enough

Wisdom contemplates . . .

Truth
beauty
longing
knowing
not knowing
fulness
emptiness
the all-ness of The One
the partial-ness of itself
limits and eternity
bounded and boundless
love and hate
truth and lies
will and surrender
the bigness of the small
and the smallness of the big
words written on the page and in the heart
sung by the birds and children and operatic maestros

Love arises . . .

as Truth sees
and Wisdom contemplates
and all is well and very well
indeed
for Love arises
again
and again
and again
and and and
