Within the sleeping gates
Ronald Tirino 1962 (NYC)
Within the sleeping gates
Darkness pierced past sleeping gates
In light its shinning light awakens
Thought of sense it’s willing needed
Leaped transformed transcending’s
Past its future callings
We tread a thousand threads responding
Joined as flowing interwoven's
Which thousand links did bond
Reaches all for which it’s thirsting
Fade the words within its image
Calming waters in soft lit light
Refresh ourselves
In boundless beings
