Twenty-seven Heart-Fragrance-Dreams

One

```

My Beloved Supreme,

What will I do

If You ever cancel

Your Forgiveness-Compassion-Credit Cards? ```

Two

```

My love of God

Has many rivals

But no critic.

```

Three

```

Yesterday God came to me

As Hope-Seed.

Today God has come to me

As a Promise-Tree.

Tomorrow God will come to me

As a Fulfilment-Fruit. ```

Four

```

Only my soul,

The baby-God in me.

Has the capacity

To properly love my Supreme,

The Father-God in me

And around me. ```

Five

```

Oneness-heart-children

Have their homes

Everywhere.

```

Six

```

May my heart never study

Life’s indifference-book. ```

Seven

```

My mind’s sound-prayer

Is my first resort.

My heart’s silence-meditation

Is my last resort. ```

Eight

```

God’s Justice-Hand

Makes strict rules.

God’s Compassion-Heart

Makes innumerable exceptions. ```

Nine

```

God’s Compassion-Eye

Never uses

Justice-Glasses.

```

Ten

```

What my heart needs

Is cosmic beauty,

And not cosmetic beauty.

```

Eleven

```

Two things the mind

Does not want:

It does not want

To step back;

It does not want

God to lead. ```

Twelve

```

Each good thought

Adds a new God-dimension

To my dedication-life.

```

Thirteen

```

Oneness-heart-crop,

Peace-life-harvest. ```

Fourteen

```

Even

At its infancy,

Doubt

Is most dangerous. ```

Fifteen

```

My Lord’s Heart

Is too compassionate

To contradict

My arrogance-mind. ```

Sixteen

```

My Lord Supreme cannot believe

That I spend daily

At least five hours

In my mind’s complaint-department. ```

Seventeen

```

A gratitude-heart

Aspires.

An ingratitude-mind

Expires. ```

Eighteen

```

A limited mind

Houses unlimited thoughts. ```

Nineteen

```

A tiny heart

Embodies the Infinite. ```

Twenty

```

My mind-thought

Is a two-way street.

My heart-will

Is a one-way street. ```

Twenty-One

```

“I cannot love

And I do not love

God”

Is an old story

Of my mind.

```

Twenty-Two

```

“I can love

And I do love

God”

Is an ever-new song

Of my heart.

```

Twenty-Three

```

God teaches

Only the heart-singers

His peace-songs.

```

Twenty-Four

```

Who was I?

An anxiety-invaded mind.

Who am I?

A peace-expanded heart. ```

Twenty-Five

```

God always wants me to live

In my heart-industry.

But I always love to live

In my mind-factory. ```

Twenty-Six

```

God has forgiven me

So that I can once more

Love myself.

```

Twenty-Seven

```

God is extremely proud of Himself

Only when He can run to and fro

Between my heart’s gratitude-tears

And my life’s surrender-smiles. ```
