“You are the Essence of the Essence,The intoxication of Love.I long to sing Your Praisesbut stand mutewith the agony of wishing in my heart !”

“You have touched my soul, and I have seen your heart, and I know I am forever changed by the essence of you.”

“Oh you, unceasing sun, to me Your particles communicate The luminous essence of God, Are you our God? I do not know. Intoxicated, I say nought, Bewitched by the magic potion. I cannot differentiate Between my drunk and sober state.”

“My soul absorbs you, my mind inhales your essence, you confirm my life.”

“Stillness offers an experience of being and a recognition that being . . . my essence . . . is a part of all Being, all Essence.”

“The song I came to sing remains unsung to this day. I have spent my days in stringing and in unstringing my instrument. The time has not come true, the words have not been rightly set; only there is the agony of wishing in my heart . . .”
