For Her

This piece appears on the back cover of my UNFINISHED NOVELS.

I cannot explain it:
Image alone must convey
What my heart embraces.

A distant star, born upon the raging fire
Did deliver a single atom
Across the endless folds of time.

And there through an alchemy beyond all  mysteries
I am here
Body, mind, spirit...and heart.

Thus empowered this
Undying atom which gives me my self
Did in its endless spirals
Lift the darkness about me.

A new day dawned:
Music, light, colors, joy;
And there against this spreading glory
I beheld you!

In that instant I knew:
Body, mind, spirit...and heart
Born amidst that same celestial fire,
Cast forth upon a similar journey
We have arrived here.

This new day has dawned:
Music, light, colors, joy.
I behold you.

Each day seems so new to me, I get lots of thoughts coming at me, and find I can occupy myself with good things, not bad anymore. Which is such a comforting thing.
