APOGEE

The moon in its distant orbit so very far

At the APOGEE be this light, be this distant star

This orb divine of sacred light, its calling is heard

Within the darkness, the rapture, the given WORD

As too, the tides of the sea, held in its embrace

I in the ebb and flow of love's light and grace

Ascension, be this the glory, this divinity's call

The splendor, the ecstasy, the majesty of ALL

Within this PRESENCE an ALL knowing blessed BE

And held I within a distant vista, within a celestial sea.

 APOGEE Moon... A Metaphor for one's vision, for one's life work, for one's purpose defined... APOGEE, the furthest point in the moon's orbit... and so our quest for the highest point, for the journey's end, for a culmination, for the ultimate climax...our light, our love, our destiny known.
