About this ebook

A collection of breathtaking love poems that will stir your body, ignite your passion, awaken your mind, and excite your spirit. And that is exactly how the poems are arranged, according to the Kabbalistic structure of the four worlds: material, emotional, intellectual and spiritual. But deeper than that – each poem relates not only to deep loving relationships in this horizontal plane but also with the Source of Love in the vertical plane.

Your fragrance, from a place/ So far yet so near,/ Fills my soul with the memory/ Of when time stood still,/ From the beginning of beginnings/ To the end of endings./ As I breathe in your essence/ And smile out my passion,/ As I draw you in/ And hold you tight,/ And the still waters cleave open in the night./ You whisper your laugh/ And sigh your compassion/ From the place beyond time and space.

    Beyond Time and Space - Leon

    The Tree

    You are that Tree

    Whose roots lie in the sky;

    Your trunk, smooth and curved,

    Stretch between heaven and heart.

    I lie down in the shadow of your foliage

    Finding my resting place

    Nestled in your gaze,

    While you reach out your limbs

    To enwrap me in your Love;

    Your fruit, ripe and luscious,

    Promising, promising eternal life.

    Beyond Time and Space – Introduction

    Love is all encompassing—it is beyond time and space. When it hits it takes over the body, heart, mind and soul. And after it hits and when it settles, it has to be nurtured in body, heart, mind and soul. Thus it says in Deuteronomy (6:5): And you will love the Essence that is your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your body (paraphrase). But this presents a theological/existential problem: if one’s love for the Divine is to be of such all-ness then what room is there for an equivalent, overwhelming love for another human being–a lover? One solution to this dichotomy is to separate the axes, that is: to separate the horizontal physical love from the vertical spiritual love. Another is to devote everything to one or the other. A third sees no separation between either this or that. This is the way of the mystics: the Jewish Kabbalists, the Moslem Sufis, and the non-monastic Christians. So the Song of Songs, perhaps the greatest love poem, is not about the love between a man and a woman that is actually an allegory about the Love between the Divine
