THE JOBBING KIN[G]DOM BUILDER IN US ALL
Thoughts gathered in collaboration
Never impossible – only – not yet achieved.
Within our future sense and integral intelligence,
all is present, flowing, incalculable potential,
‘I am’, in me, becoming all I might be;
You, astonished, reaching beyond your grasp;
We, inspired, transcending our conditioning;
rare hope formulating ordinarily,
as pragmatic purposes
are born again of universal principles.
Thus, rising cosmic consciousness,
enthused by moral imagination,
frames today’s preparation
and each hour’s ensuing act.
Wondering prayerfulness supersedes
mere mindfulness.
Promise, purpose, potential, when
all realised, restore the replenishing of earth.
The covenant of everything under the rainbow
thrives as multi-featured love in inclusive health:
thus reigns the Common Good.
Nothing is impossible
if you don’t mind who gets the credit.
We are the Earth.
Cosmic creativity deserves both
the initial and the final credit, as we sense
the flowing symbiosis:
that is you and me absorbed and yet distinct
in one humanity.
We are the universe
reaching to understand itself.
Life in maturity is an evolutionary gift;
each composted life will one day nourish
seeds of distinguishable future forms.
You, a ‘Kin[g]dom builder’, are adding humbly
to an inclusive, non-hierarchical,
non-imperial humanity,
in your service to the healing
and maturing of this sacred planet.
Go boldly and bubbly into 2021, enhanced in intention by subdued but uplifting Festivities ahead, Peter
