He is Sun, Sky, Moon
Stars, Clouds, the Blue…
He is safety
Infinity
Always been…even when he never was
Sometimes he darkens,
Then a spark lights him up again
The blue…
Infinite
You cannot see the extent of his reach
Do not have to
He just is…
She is Earth, Water, Wind, Fire
Strength, heat, fluid, movement
Growth, birth, death, revival, circles and cycles
Never ending, ever winding, ever changing,
And yet
Constant, eternal,
As trees shed leaves and recreate them
So she remains…
Firm, real, tangible Earth
You cannot see her reach or her boundaries
Do not have to
Only have to know that she is…
The distance between them…
What does it take to touch the sky…
How far must one climb
How high does one attempt to jump
A search for Jacob’s Ladder…
A stairway to heaven that their hearts may meet
Angels sing and look down,
Wry smiles upon their lips…
The futility of hopping up and down in the space between
The Earth and the Sky…
And then
A whirlwind….
The Earth, the Wind, the Air…
Separates from the Water and Fire
Grows wings, dancing a spiral dance…
She twirls…
He gasps in surprise…
An act of God
A leap of Faith….
In that moment…
The whirlwind…
The Earth kisses the Sky….
