Love comes
        unseen and unheard
I take to wing
circling and soaring
upon the wind

Love comes
        softly and gently
I am a flower
turning slowly
toward the warmth of the sun

Love comes
        cleansing and nourishing
I reach deep within
and drink from the well

Love comes
        rhythmic and certain
I am a rock
standing firm
at the ocean shore

Love comes
        tempered and pure
I am many-colored flames
dancing
in the glowing fire

Love comes
        treasured and cherished
I am receiver and giver
opening fully
to the gift
