I am from the
slide of sun
into the place
where lovers meet
and the glow of
moon
that makes me
know it’s true.
I am from silver
linings
of the dark and
menacing
and the dew that
overlays
landscapes of
betrayal.
I am from the
song of birds
joyous in the
morning light
and the silence
of the lambs
overcome by
stormy weather.
I am from the
crust of earth
that stabilizes
fear
and her own
inner turmoil
that upsets what
I hold dear.
I am from the
question mark
of not
understanding
and the
exclamation mark
of acceptable
conclusions.
I am from the
trail of hands
that contoured
soul to fit
all the many
styles and shapes
of diverse
circumstances ~
but most of all
without a doubt
I am from loving
you!
