Who Was He That Did Appear?

Contributed by Nicholas Begich

Who was that man that did appear? 
His mind refined, in him no fear.
Who is that man that did appear in a dream?
A spirit rise, to meet the skies.
A phoenix from the mist arise.
Who was that man that did appear?

Upon the page, she read the words.
She saw and understood, she heard
The message conveyed therein set her mind within,
To see a light, a path not his, but hers.
For a time they run in parallel
Within the light her inner life compels. 

Who is she that would walk with thee?
In a life of overflowing energy,
In worlds apart and diverse you see
Because of his shifting reality, living within me.
A living soul expressed
In the love of the universal breath.

Created in the image, in the image are we.
The image of Creator in that image we see.
We actualize a new reality the dreamer awakens within me.
Now we live as it unfolds,
To move the dream where we’re not told.
The new observer sees the shape of all realities, their possibilities.

There is no path that is the same.
The path upon our walk of life and pain.
We live the full of each life grain, as sand across a beach of time.
We live to love and express in kind, intimacy.
The soft touch, a gentle kiss and then the chemistry
Of two souls entangled in utter ecstasy in a lovely exchange of energy.

Who was that man that did appear?
His mind refined, in him no fear,
Who is that man that did appear in a dream?
A spirit rise, to meet the skies.
A phoenix from the mist arise.
Who was that man that did appear?
