The shadow grows long
And I know it is time for
The meeting of earth and sky once more
Where song finds music, the poet words,
And the artist a canvas
For me it is a place I go
To meet my lover
We unite in this vision above us under the same sky
Whether together or miles span between us
We claim the right of passage
To the heart of hearts,
Called by its true name, which is love
Hearing that call,
Feelings and emotions echo from the pen
Like a spiritual tradition that exclaims truth to the deep heart
In the marrow is felt the pull of the soul
To this other human being until two become one
Body and mind spill over with intense aliveness
Whispers of great empty places hush
As trust and courage embrace
Love itself is the soul’s air
And I want to breathe this love for eternity
