There is great joy
in the hiddenness of loving
and to feel the winds
in the breathing
of the soul
–
We do not fly
through the power of wings
but from the winds
of loving
that sustain our flight
–
The beauty of love
flows through
the sheltering spirit
of an unseen
beloved
–
Light from the heart
illuminates
an image in a dream
as a momentary
grace of love
–
A faceless beloved
lives forever
in a deeper vision
given only
to the heart
This is a gorgeous poem! It deeply reminds me of St. John of Cross and his writings about being upheld in the flight of love, and finding the beloved deep in the darkness of the night. I love the title “hidden in the winds of loving.” So beautifully evocative of the subject!
