TELL YOU KINDLY

It takes a single person
A solitary soul
To open up a little
To contemplate the whole
For all the world to tremble
And creation to rush in
And for every mind's
Awakening to begin

It takes a single moment
A twinkle of an eye
For the Child's memory
To turn toward the Light
And in that simple memory
That begins to blaze
Every point upon the web
Of the Universe is upraised

And so I tell you kindly friend
Don't think that you are small
Because within yourself
You contain it all
And with every person
Truly you are one
So I tell you kindly friend
Where you go they all come

It takes a single person
A solitary soul
For the entire Universe
To awaken to the whole
