I am caught mid-jump by soul-family

awkward and alien I am
            a step out of time
aching for you
        to seep in through my thirsty skin
begging to be drenched by you

my breath
        my words
                are the palest shimmer of a reflection
    of this longing

this need
            my need
                    to be your vessel
      the channel for your river
the bearer of the candle lit from your Vast Mystery

and in these moments when
    my banks are not dampened
        by your overflow
                I ache and wonder and grieve
and dream of
        throwing myself into your river

                            and I am caught
                mid-jump
by soul-family
        and this net we have together
                        this weave of never-alone

…this weave of never-alone…….

your compassionate and generous presence is a constitutive part of that weave,

the soul-family is woven by your witnessing, your words, your beauty.

We are the richer thereby.

We are all richer for having each other, and I hope to be a part of this weave and a transport for Beauty and her messages for the rest of my days.

Thank you for being here!

Hugs and butterflies,
