The Moment Poised

Rejoice in the Lord, all the earth,
   and serve him with joy.

 Exult as you enter his presence.
                                                                       Psalm 99










                                                             God’s joy is 
                                                                diffusing
                                                                    the spring trees,
                                                             lacing the soft gray
                                                             silks of mist

                                                             like a dancer
                                                                enfolding                             
                                                                    his lover’s hand,
                                                             gently

                                                             as the sky
                                                                the soft plumes
                                                                    of light
                                                             green

                                                             in the moment
                                                                poised
                                                                    upon their turning
                                                             and their standing
                                                             still,
   
                                                             upon their silence
                                                                and their song

                                                             letting go.
