To explain the unfathomable,
A gift inconceivable
Is daunting and easy and–
To call or describe
This one thing, impossible
The swiftest of time
The sweetest of miracles.
The magic and mystery,
The littlest atoms
And somehow the greatest of love
One can’t fathom.
It’s perfection in you
(imperfection, too)
It’s teaching
And learning
And pulling
And pushing
And wishing
And hoping
And worrying
And hoping
And dreaming
And hoping
And waiting
And hoping
And praying
And hoping.
For those who are lucky,
The infinite blessed,
Then all in an instant
Its change everlast.
Some here.
Some there.
Some leaving us asking.
And wishing
And hoping
And dreaming
And hoping
And waiting
And hoping
And praying
And hoping.
