The Poem of OM

(From the Book O Lanoo! ~ Published March 1999)

 

Man and the Universe

Came together in the ancient sound of OM:

The perfect circle of infinity,

The eternal Ohhhhhhh of the Universe

And Mmmmmmm,

The vibration of Man;

M, the hieroglyph of Water,

The symbol for the feminine aspect of Nature,

The root of Mare, the Sea,

And Mary, Mother of Jesus,

And Maya, illusion, Mother of Buddha,

And all drawn from the Motion of the Moon

From whence sprang all Life.
