I wake to the flutter of
Wings in my face,
Stirred by the wind of
Amazing grace.
Each time I stumbled on every
Root along the ground,
Now I catch the warmer currents
'Til the cold air brings me down.

These solid clouds of love we are,
Shifting in a constant sky,
Touching earth remind me that I know
I've seen you in a crowded world before.

I read your body
Like a history,
I've learned your ancient battles
In the sailing of your seas.
Your words are artifacts,
The culture of your soul,
Like poetry uncovered
In a broken bowl.

So long,
I'll be seeing you.
Dance forever in the
Moment that we know,
Gesture to the stars and
Home again we go.

I sleep in the hollow of your
Shoulder and your breast,
Riding your heartbeat
In the trough and crest.
The caring for the children
And the bearing of the light
Carry us on
Into the day and night.

These solid clouds…
