Resurrection
Chattering teeth but not from the cold
Heart trip hammering out a beat
Head spinning thoughts swirling never
settled
Hairs rising over the scalp standing on
end
Veins prickle as needles send
pulsations from restricted blood
Brow hot in a fever a fire burns across
Throat retches convulses out tight
inescapable soundless murmurs muted
Ears buzzing ringing in concert of
internal synapses humming
Fingers tremble in unison twitching
shaking in a frayed live wire dance
Eyes closed sees the hot rays of sunlight
a crimson red on the surface of the retina
Skin suddenly vibrates an eruption of
sensations
then a Presence is sensed like a beam
light
blazes over each molecule
breaking the spell
lips are moistened as tender imperceptible
droplets mist over them
tongue peeks out catching the soothing
moisture
vocal cords freed
lungs inhale deeply
She opens fully
thrusts hands up
clasps them around
this incredible Essense
A chorus of sounds
burst into the air
rapture fills her soul
peace love joy is found
then touches eternity
all at once
