Soft sounding strings and shadows
joined together in thought, vibrating
into life as irresistible choices,
as eyes engaged
or gentle hands touching in candle light;
circled strings, webs of seeming moments
more real than pauses excused for reality,
a rise and fall like swells upon water
pulled by Sun and Moon, lifted by breath of wind;
many unseen ways working their will.
Love in promise of meanings shared
time and space opposes all, until rising
to look down upon the molehill mountains
where once stood long shadows, no longer lost;
hopes are not consumed by captive moments,
they live as choices, to see a spark of light
for even darkness reveals an ocean of gleaming stars;
still amongst shadows by will to overcome,
by presence and absence so filled of wanting these
dearest strangers among sweet secrets, held close.
