Great Souls Poem by Robert Rittel

Absorbed by compassioned glorious vision,
preserving pearls by courage's decision.
Not to be detained in the after life,
where yesterday in tomorrows strife.
All for now caught in thy light,
dwellings in glance of that might.
That blazing soul in every step of the path,
through space and its centre on earth.
Fresh sweetness by the river of belonging,
passing through the dessert of silent suffering.
Sublime nature and its reflection by eternal provision,
constant remembrance of that glorious vision.
Frankincense scented memories culture,
lifted barrier that divide societies structure.
Immensity of space as majesty in presence,
stars yielded galaxies of mercy as essence.
Providence holding those moments,
divine radiance and its endowments.
Hearts of oceans in waves of devotion,
loss of self in supreme vision and notion.
Reflected soul in color and form,
inconceivable time to perform.
Great human spirit and refreshing river,
you will live for ever.
