The soft sound of a river <br />Makes One’s skin quiver <br />The depth of the ocean <br />Is as deep as One’s devotion <br /> <br />The blaze of a fire <br />Is as loud as One’s desire <br />The smell of the burning <br />Is One’s thoughts churning <br /> <br />The howls of the gale <br />Are a psalm that makes One pale <br />The gusts of a hurricane <br />Are One’s reaction to pain <br /> <br />The flash of the aether <br />Makes One feel quite safer <br />To the contrary though <br />Some may fear the glow <br /> <br />The shakes of the hard quakes <br />Are the outcries One makes <br />The slide of a mountain side <br />May the pain of One hide <br /> <br />All is One, One is All <br />Souls echo to the call <br />In the end, we all fall <br /> <br />(11/11/2007)<br /><br />Michael Koelliker<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/all-13/
