One of those experiences where I said a phrase "I've admired you Mary Beth from a distance" and I do a double take. Hey that sounds like a poem! Yup, this one from the vantage point of a spirit guide, higher self or angel.
So far, so far away
I look upon you, with grace, every day
A higher self, a higher mind, a higher being
You may not know the truth that I am seeing
Without the judgment of a divisive right or wrong
The place you stand is where you belong
Though at times lost, you wander alone in the dark
Before, eventually, you get the horse before the cart
Alas the gift: your very presence, your very existence
Just so you know – I’ve admired you from a distance
The list of struggles and stressors are real
Those who search for the sustenance of a simple meal
Those who have no shelter, no room, no home, no bed
Those who battle inner demons in their own head
You who falter on promises to stop the latest addiction
You who get bad news of the latest medical affliction
You who fall prey to the latest government sponsored racket
You who work hard for money lost in your tax bracket
In the end, you need not struggle with any offense or defense
For little did you know – I’ve admired you from a distance
Those who cheat another for no other reason but because they can
Those who meet their mirror – the karma they come to understand
Those who believe they have fallen, blindly, too far
Alas, those who have forgotten who they are
Every hair on your head, everything will be held to account
While every barrier, challenge and mountain you shall surmount
With each resistance met with a soul’s endless persistence
No, not so far, not so far away – your very existence
Dissolution discarded, unity embraced, within this very instance
I will admire you eternally – knowing there is no distance
I look upon you, with grace, every day
A higher self, a higher mind, a higher being
You may not know the truth that I am seeing
Without the judgment of a divisive right or wrong
The place you stand is where you belong
Though at times lost, you wander alone in the dark
Before, eventually, you get the horse before the cart
Alas the gift: your very presence, your very existence
Just so you know – I’ve admired you from a distance
The list of struggles and stressors are real
Those who search for the sustenance of a simple meal
Those who have no shelter, no room, no home, no bed
Those who battle inner demons in their own head
You who falter on promises to stop the latest addiction
You who get bad news of the latest medical affliction
You who fall prey to the latest government sponsored racket
You who work hard for money lost in your tax bracket
In the end, you need not struggle with any offense or defense
For little did you know – I’ve admired you from a distance
Those who cheat another for no other reason but because they can
Those who meet their mirror – the karma they come to understand

Alas, those who have forgotten who they are
