First...we belong only to
a touch.

Yet flesh alone is a shallow
prayer.

There is always more.

Even the deepest water parts to the
unexpected grace of reaching
hands.

First we belong only to the touch.

And fingers pray fine along the lips of
our desires.

We give ourselves to this...

A surrender to flesh and shallow
prayers.

And only now do we
taste -

A hint of something more.



Love,
Eric

---

Even the deepest water parts to the
unexpected grace of reaching

---

You reach
my heart
with your
infinite grace
and I open
to you
in a flood
of love
holding all
the sacred
prayers
ever traced
along the roots
of desire
and then
the seed
of divine beauty
grows
and blooms
and we know
and taste
the fruits
of love
offered
to our
daring souls
who point
to heaven ...
and find it.

Again and again, dear Eric, your wonderful words reach far ...
I love you. Margherita

When heaven is flowing in prayer
and breath is the only one breathing
when one has seen through the last layer
then flesh is the reason and meaning...

Love,
Leela
