The Open Field at Dawn



Beyond the quarrel of right and wrong
there lies a plain,
wide as the wilderness,
waiting.

 

At the rising of the day
a breath moves across the earth,
whispering secrets
to those who keep watch.

 

Do not return to slumber.
Ask for what your heart longs for,
not the lesser things,
but the hidden treasure.

 

For many pass back and forth
across the threshold,
where two worlds meet.

 

The door stands round,
already open.
Step through—
and you will find
no law, no shadow,
only the fullness of God.
