A Psalm of Arrival 1

A Song of Arrival, #1

Ah, sweet Earth

I have come for you

Womb World Earth

Above your shimmering air

I sing to you

For already am I in love,

In love with you stretched out watery warm blue beneath me

I laugh a little too much

I am giddy for the delight of you who pulled me through so much space

my tears catch the light of your yellowy mild sun

As her light flames across your face, oh Earth,

And parting the breath of your life in its swirls and maskings of blue and white

A young woman you are, Earth

Whose green eyes invite my life

To touch your brown belly of soil

And I cup you in my hands, descending

From Home I have bent the light

I have sung to the stars

And wrestled with God,

Whose body have I caressed,

Yea, pushed

To make the journey

To you, Earth

where the stars stretch out a different pattern

where worshippers are ready

Ready for God

Ready to play in the cosmos
