When beholding her
A strong, abiding flame pervades
Ardent, glowing
About her it overflows
And cannot be contained
Having flooded every space within
Cascading over everywhere
A waterfall, tides long unnamed
The truth of it finally known
Two radiant eyes
Blaze bright, the color of wonder
Echoing our wild song
And she bursts free
Breaks apart the dense doubt of longing
Shatters the shadows
She has arrived
And now we ask her, come
Held out, her two open hands
Holding back nothing
Just like our own
In reverent silence, we see beyond
Deeply moved by the mystery
Residing in those eyes
Wide as open doors
At the threshold, the edge of our belonging
She dives, she soars
Transformed by joy, we shine and shine
We say this path was always yours
Lovely image. Like a Bealtaine fire 🙂
