Gift

 

Beloved, you bring to me

Beauty beyond compare:

The pure, white ecstasy —

The hour of silent prayer.

 

The wells of light unclose

Beneath your touch of flame;

All memories repose

Regathered in your name.

 

My muted thoughts evolve

Swift wings of golden fire;

Within your breath dissolve

All darkness and desire.

 

The heavens unfold above,

Eternities of grace;

Resplendent worlds of love,

Mirrored within your face.
