Your Love’s Small Hands

With your love's small hands
a spirit is rebuilt,
bedrock
to cloud-crowned summit
the royal earth rises,
fountains up,
spills over, climbs
the ladder of itself -
an upscape;
an outscape -
a mountain fills
a void upon the earth.
Your love's small hands
seduce the dust,
the honored soil blooms,
ripe worlds
flash into cosmic being,
with a burst of touch
planets plume:
you snare the breath
of the universe.
Star -
full organic star
of love,
I am reissued
by the light
of your palms:
from grain to cosmos,
I am expansive,
immortal,
entire,
peerless
as a god -
peerless
as the first who knew
the whole of love,
the birth of love,
the joy of life
before it existed.

Take care, keep safe, and stay beautiful,

With love and peace,

    Wow . . . after reading this, I am silenced. The potent image of upward layers climbing--the upscape and outscape is wonderful. I normally don't enjoy love poems, but this is truly brilliant.

    Thanks, Bobby. I truly appreciate that. This poem is inspired by second chances, and the rebuilding of a life based on those chances being offered.
