The dark-red goblet

The dark-red goblet
 
This morning the wells at Meherabad overflowed,
threatening to drown all inhabitants.
 
My little boat was swamped by a great wave.
Can my heartsong be heard above the ocean’s roar?
 
When the truth of His rain reaches our ears,
we’ll be drenched, o pilgrims, inside and out.
 
The Beloved is pouring His wine!
Offer the dark-red goblet of your heart.
 
Nothing to cling to; nowhere to go
but down into the vasty blue depths.
 
O child of God, drown in the Ocean of Love,
leaving not a trace of yourself on this rugged, illusory shore.
