INVOCATION



by Clare Cameron


"Dear sweet presences
Who love to the uttermost,
Those about me clothed in flesh
And others clothed in Light
Attend my prayer.

To those in shadow
Of life’s delusions
And suffering inflicted on others,
Where tentacles reach out to bind –
Come, be there

Bring swords of Light.
Stir the dark waters
And free the cleansing streams.
We too need purification,
And darkness share.

Sweet presences,
Our eyes are clouded.
Shine your Light through them!
And at the appointed time
Instruct us to bear

The swords of Light
In the service of Love.
And where there was corruption
There shall be lilies
Stainless and fair

Because you were with us
There."
