*


I am rooted in You,

drawing my life from Yours.

You dressed my soul

for its journey

to faraway shores.

Now my body bends

into time and space

like an arch

across mutable skies.

I dance through distance

touching all life

with the same love

You pour into me

endlessly.

With my arms I reach out

and move back towards You.

My fingertips dip

into Your essence divine

and forevermore I’ll know

how it feels to be Home.

I can never get lost,

I am anchored in eternity,

I am rooted in You.

Love, Margherita

What an uplifting poem, Margherita...
I do believe this has become my new favorite
of yours...so it has been summarily poofed
into the library!

Karilea - if I whisper, will you listen?  Keeping in mind, I must stand close...and keep my promises...

Oh My Goodness how I do love the movement in your poem, it's like a beautiful beautiful waltz through space and time fully embraced as one with the One who you Love and Adore so very very much. Thank you for sharing your dear dear heart here. -Bob

I don't think I have ever thought of it this way. Beautiful!

Thank you my dear poet friends for your loving comments.
This was born from a vision I had of myself rooted in the Light, stretching and bending backwards into the Light again  ... a beautiful vision actually! Could not find the perfect picture for this though.
Love, Margherita
