Days
(Or "Doorway to Love" )
With thanks to Martin McCarthy for the alternate title :)
Some days
meaning finds us,
despite our resistance.
We are rearranged by light.
We are re-educated by a forest.
We are restored to a state of wonder.
Those days
we learn again
what it means to see
the way we did long ago
when we first opened our eyes
and the world entered into us, utterly.
One day
we will come
together, walking,
sunlit and shadow netted,
hand in hand, heart in heart
through an archway, into a future.
This day
though, is yours,
before the ever after
that we may never see.
Holding, loving, breathing…
Being together, needing nothing more.
