The Anointed One

My journey started by the riverside

As the storm clouds gathered overhead

“We must all walk alone in the rain

In order to discover the pathway to knowledge”

Let the rain cleanse your soul

Feel the dead skin being washed away

Soon my bones began to shatter and dissolve into dust

Reduced to particles blown on the wind

Becoming part of the cycle of life

Travelling on the wind currents

I gathered information and insight from around the world

Letting nature reveal its secret mysteries to my myriad form

A heavenly cipher only revealed to a fortunate few

My dust particles drifted up to the heavens and beyond

I felt part of the building blocks of the natural world

I travelled to the very edge of the cosmos

And back again to one single focal point

The dust particles gathered together

And I became whole again

Only now I was blessed with new insight

The rain had stopped and the sun was shining down on me

Newly anointed by the hand of God

I no longer had any fears

For I was truly blessed
