A Long Time Coming

It was a long time coming

 

And in the joining,

 

the consummation

 

Even then, in such sweet union

 

A sense

 

Of endings

 

And,  of course,

 

Of course

 

Beginnings.

 

The seeds of one born in the other

 

 

The paradox of this great truth embraced

 

I come to know that thus it is

 

And always was

 

For humankind

 

And we,

 

You and I

 

Are truly one in this.
