Analysis of The Golden Night.



The Golden Night

It is night
Darkness has fallen

The fruit that is Love
The Source of all is to
Be gathered within
Solitary silence

The Holy Spirit
Of God controls
What is Mystical

Our journey to
Our Spiritual Father  
Which is associated with
Mary Immaculate
Our Mother
Ensures that we are in
The process of living
Akin to Christ and
Conveying his love
Which reflects Our Father

Yes our climb is akin to that
Conveyed by Juan de la Cruz
A climb into the Heart of Love
A climb which we must desire
And welcome if Our Father
So wills.
