Here is my love

clouds from deck

Here is my love
that doesn’t cling
that doesn’t slide around its objects
to the dark side

that doesn’t grasp
that doesn’t weigh them down
or take up residence within their forms
as jealousy, possession

Here is my love
that must stay love
— all light —
illuming and infusing everything
and never changing —

Light as these wing tips
poised on the edge of that taut span
that masters flight,
poised to guide my actions
in the nuance
of the sweet embrace
of all that shimmers
and all that waits to shine.
