63.) At The Stone Of The Troubling . . .




At the stone of the troubling:
The altar of the exchanging
Moments of vision
Have always to be paid for;
In the losing to find
The emptying to be filled:
The pain of the joy, before 
The delight of the finding.

At the east gate of the garden:
The place of the meeting
Openings of heart-light have
A break to be reckoned with;
In the flash of the sword
The flame of the turning:
The pain of the joy, before 
The delight of the finding. 

At the meeting of ways
Where the edges of life were
There were our weeds known 
In the seeing stone found;
Known in the inner conflict
At the gate we were driven from:
The pain of the joy, before
The delight of the finding.
