Love,
beneath my breathing,
beneath my heartbeat,
fundus of my being,
Word of the merest nerve impulse,
you are.
I am immersed in you.
I float deep in your blue-green silence,
your amniotic presence.
My singular “I” drowns;
I am birthed into you,
this singing light,
from womb to womb.
Fed on your umbilical love I rise.
I hear your voice, hymn of my life:
“You are my child,
my Beloved,
in whom I am well pleased.“
Now I am alive.
