Writing Her

“Write of me,” she asks,
“say the woman that you see.
I need to see me as I live
within the mirror of your eyes.”

With grateful humility I answer:

“Every line of you is blessing,
every curving of you, whether
outside or within, whether
body, mind or soul, is blessed.
Every turning of your body
pulls me as a kite line
draws toward the sanctuary
of earth and air.
Pull, and I fly to you,
release, I fall to you;
hold, and I float in you
on breezes of the soul.

“You ask to show you love
but showing takes a contrast
and there is no change of tone,
no variation in the hue.
I see you as you are,
and you are love.
I see you as you may become,
and you are love.
I see you as a part of me,
and you are love.

“So look at me, only look
into my eyes and you will see
the wholeness of yourself.
You will see love.”

Oy, most wonderful.  She cannot be anything but bowled over by this, so loving and so exquisite.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.
