Song for a Lover


In celebration, communion, reunion of our bodies--
spirits, we come together in the darkness.
Our every breath a wordless prayer, a language
of secrets spun from silken thread, delicate shining strands
of love realized and strung about and betwixt our skins,
Our Skin.

With love we have spun new life from darkness, a seedling
at our feet, setting root beside our tree. As three
we grow together, intertwined and tangled for a lifetime,
eternity.
