Dream Child Rising
Dream child rising
spreading open
your enfolded waves of trust
touching the hearth of hearts
where you slowly slither
between the clefts in your own armor
escaping your cocoon day by day
part of you born
part of you clinging to what was
part of you to what might be
part of you here now
in the foaming river of hope
rapids swirling around you
in the dream of your own creation
contemplating your cautious steps
as you throw them into the chafing wind
your courage overcoming hesitation
your wonder trampling familiarity
the present of you
in this perpetual divine moment
takes my breath away
and yours too
as we see the face of God
reflected in the eyes of love
that look sweetly
upon you who is me
and me who is you
making the two into one
and becoming what is
