When I turn to look for Thee
with I of me that does not see,
You softly stir, Ayin within:
the Fountain whence all souls begin.
For You are never far from me,
but inside me and I in Thee;
You are the holy "I" in we,
oh Lord, the Eye through which I see.
Author notes
Ayin - Hebrew word meaning Origin, Eye, Fountain, Source.
"When we look with the 'I'
We dream.
When we look for the 'I'
We awaken."

absolutely stunning ...
the path of the mystic is truly delightful ...
for the mystic, although speaking in words that bridge the realms of duality and unity, does not belong to duality ... yet (s)he delights in keeping an apparent "relationship" of "me" and "my beloved", for the blissful-painful joy of losing Him and finding Him again and again ... while all the way dwelling in conscious Unity with Him, in Him, as Him ...
shalom ...

Beautiful and tender
When we do not see, we turn - your poem turns me around.
"to turn, turn will be our delight,
until by turning, we turn 'round right."
This is inspired verse, and such a pleasure to read.
