Love is…

February 15th, 2006 § 18

In the atmosphere above the sun
the sky is dark and stars whirl.
From there love scatters earthward
arcing the distance between the divine and us,
–and I am drenched with it.

In the way my small boy,
newly walking, curls his fingers
tightly around my hand
and together we cross the room;
or the way my man
cups my face in his hands, still fiercely
with want and tenderness after seven years.
