A RIVER’S TRUE SONG
Tell me,
do you know
where Divinity
hides the dawn?
Have you seen
where She cradles
the stars,
or how He strews them
like diamonds
dancing in the froth
on the ceiling of the world?
Do you not know?
He has set eternity in your heart.
The Waters of Life
are within you.
Be the vase, then,
that’s willing to shatter.
Break yourself open
and through your broken places
let your waters
pour out from you.
Be a drink offering.
Water the world.
You needn’t worry
at the loss.
This unfolding
carries hidden graces.
Quiet resurrections
dance playfully
in dalliance
with the shoreline.
There is no fear in it
only the clear satisfaction
of a river’s true song:
All will be Beautiful in its time.
