To the love of One whose light is piercing
Through the darkness, through the doubting

A raw dark, persuaded by rusty leaves
	who break through the hushed prayers,
		vibrant hopes and dreams,
			stirring light that lives beneath the heavens,
	confiding joy, revealing wonders, confessing

O Aphrodite,
Grecian fertility goddess
Matriarch idol of the womb,
your wise children love not reproducing

Misting the mountains, the roses
Softly dripping, sliding down petals
Gentling the feelings with emotive
Drizzling across forever, inviting

Spring — a life anew

Prodding rays of warming glow,
sunshine.
Crusted ice and snow
slowly melting into trickling drops.

Swathing my life in the miracles, wonders
Wafting through the wind’s poetry,
Painless moments, blessings
Moving from...
