Their first meeting…
a faded drop of paint
off in a plain section of washes
as if the brush was afraid of the paper
The background of pastel strangers
sketched with tenuous bristle
into hours of exuberant meeting
The images of tree and bush
river near lake, appeared
a landscape of love becoming
tendrils and clouds emerging
Like the constructs of humans
the garden wall was built
and covered with vines almost instantly
So strong the urge to grow and flower
celebrating each day of life together
In between
the words seeped in
filling up the gaps
Promised to become agates
jewels of wisdom quiet
in a thousand years or ten
The geography of relationship
a thing of beauty, at worst
when observed from a distance
Looking at us from a 1,000 feet up
there is a landscape of swirls
and incredibly lush color
as we enter brand new territory
No pedestals here
neither above nor below
before nor behind
Simply two unique individuals
side by side
No pedestals here
and no glass case, either
it’s all rather simple
You, me
discovering together
We…
Emotive nonsense
tickles my fancy
so, I do a little dancy
waving my arms
You can be silly
and play willy nilly
while the full moon plots
to whisper sweet nothings
The pool is full
and it’s spilling over
Oh, we’re silliness lovers
and that grape got away!
My cup runs over
as I’m filled with Spirit
and I’m deep in joy
through my heart of hearts
Spirit is my partner
simply my best friend
and I know for sure
that you stand by me
So, let’s dance abundance
as we are all filled with Spirit
We can share our joy
with the rest of the world
