The good things begin
When we go beyond the words
Music is the wing
That takes us there
Or love
Or a photo that touches the heart
Poetry can take us
Or a twenty mile run.
So many ways
We can go
We need to go.
As you read these words
Imagine you are standing
Behind yourself
Watching yourself
Read this
In a place beyond the words.

The evening has left us
Quietly to ourselves.
I watch you move before the mirror
Releasing all the catches and the stays
The predictable moments and habitual ways
Until a lamp light soft reveals
Your moving presence and my cautious appeal.
Can I reach the glistening in your eyes
And hold you in my arms?
A prayer weaves its way
Above
As we explore
The promises of love.

One year old you are today
And moving forward on your climb
To three and six and ten years old
Days that seem so far away
But will be here without delay.
Still there will never be a time
When innocence is more sublime
And you face brighter with love.
As you wonder
Why strangers adore you
And where do they go
When they walk out the door
And fall off the edge of the world.

This place
Is for dead grass
Not my blood
And racing heart.
I will eat
Until it is gone
And once again
Fly before the lion as I pray before the sun.

I have seen
The night sky
when it entertained the gods.
And fires racing on the plain
Mothers crying for their own
And dark brown sheets of rain.
I see it now
And always will
Until I weep
Upon a hill
For you who know not
How it feels
To run in moonlight
And be killed.
