The Mighty Soaring Eagle:

After Meister Eckhart:




















John the Evangelist,
Was a mighty soaring eagle
Whose concern
Was to trust us with Christ’s Divinity
And the mystery of the Trinity,
In the beginning was the Word.
What proceeds from the Father’s Essence
Is the Son of His source. He is
Other in person, but
Not other in nature,
The Essence made present
The Radiance of the Father.
The Son Who is the Word
Is in the essence what the Father is.
In the beginning was the Word,
And the Word was with God
That the Word might proceed from God,
And the Word was God
And The Word is God
In the flesh, and
In Him was life, and the
Life was the light of men, no rather,
In Him is life, and that Life
Is the light of men.
