Indescribable

Golden Strands
Some things you just can't put into words. Though you feel them so strongly in your heart you can almost feel them with your hands. Tangible. 

A substance formless.
Like magic. 
And love. 
And autumn leaves falling.

Like gazes. 
And souls. 
And the beautiful lives that inhabit them.

Moving between the elements.
Spirit. 
Dreams. 

Golden strands that stretch. 
Entwine.
Unseen yet known. 

And so we dream. 
We write. 
We draw. 
We paint.

We try to describe it so that we can understand it. We don't. And never will.

But perhaps for a moment. 
A snowflake on the palm. 
Warmth meets ice. 
An instant. 
And it is gone.


But not gone. 
The memory remains.
The feeling.
The touch.

The golden strands of love.
Never unbroken through space and time and all things that pass between.
Love remains.

Sacred Love

I feel the beat
The rhythmic sound
Calling from deep within the ground
Where mother earth would bid me stay
Yet father sky calls me away

One thing
I hold on to
But one
The one I must let go

But clasped still deep
So deep within
I never will let go

Flutter to the earth
Fallen
Still
Yet not alone

More alive
Heartbeat
Real
Than cold smooth stone

Finding a heart
So lovely
Rare
Like orchid rose

Like secret falls
Of bridal veil
True love flows

We embrace
A sacred touch
Where earth meets sky

But like a dream
It disappears
When opens eye

A moment home
And then alone
Recalling haven blessed

A long lost kiss
That found its place
And happiness

Never tame
Reckless love
Bespeaking sacred story

Lost and found
Where earth meets sky
Forever's glory
