Every day you infuse with life and love
Leaves a double footprint:
One on your soul,
And one on earth.
Your life makes a path like that:
One will lead others to greatness,
The other will lead you
Safely Home.

The Testimonial of Love
Of all the gifts our humanity has granted,
Longing is the most important one,
For it is the silent testimonial
Of love.
Making Flowers Grow
Your light wanted to lift
My tears to Heaven, one at the time,
But my grief was not ready to leave
And became rain instead,
Giving its lessons back to earth
And making flowers grow
And shallow lakes deepen.
The Sun has risen
The sun has risen
With a waggling tail
Of red and honey hues.
A day has come with a Spring
In its step,
And a sea to bring my dreams
To you.
All that is far away is near
A silver coin afloat in the night
A way for darkness to see
That all that is far away is near,
But your nearness brings out
The foreigness in me.
Like green grass, like morning light
If you were a weed in a ditch,
If you were an afternoon persistently falling
Into night, I would still catch you
Like green grass, like morning light,
Until it was me you grew from,
Until it was me you fell into.
On a balcony of clouds
The Ocean rests by the bay
And far, behind the hills,
You stand
On a balcony of clouds
Glowing like the sun
On its way to the Shadowlands.
