Welcoming Oneness is not only the title but the theme of this book, and that Oneness must include the unseen realms we call spiritual as well as the seen realm. The poems make up a bouquet of unfolding flowers, whereby each flower, having found a tiny crack in the wall of self, saw a light and reached for it. Then, after going through the learning experience of pushing the wall's old concepts and feelings aside, rays from that light warmed each flower's petals until they opened unto its heart, and a poem was born. Thus each poem was not the work of mind alone, but an experiential creation, beginning from deep inside the heart, seeding yearning and aspirations, and finally traveling into the sphere of expanding consciousness whereby it could be lived. As such, each page might hold a treasure that can be a lesson in itself, opening ones heart or mind into beauty or lifting one out of a space that is unworthy of their wondrous being.
