And what would I not offer,
when everything I bring
is caught up so immediately,
transfigured, brightened, multiplied,
illuminating what I am,
revealing and bestowing
my heart’s desire  –
When would I not come
to the place of offering  –
What would I want to leave behind?

I will come.
I will remember
it is my natural state
to be full of thanks  –
my breath and nourishment,
cause and purpose for my leaping –
I have been lame so long
but now I’m free.
