Ones

Two as one, letting go
To come together, the
Stars bow closer not
To be captured still
Fire exudes ...
Air fueling fire
Breath sparking breadth.

Two as one, minds ignite
Releasing energy as bombs
Explode extinguishing history,
Embers smoldering
In the present,
Star dust diffusing
On future plains.

Air fueling fire
Breath sparking ecstacy
A moment's life time.

-Cathy Hanlon 6/2000
Could he be born from the start,
If only for a fleeting moment,
To be so dear to your heart?
