And you and me are still
Young enough to really live
We are simply melding
Into another season of emotion
The years are just beginning
To gray what they have claimed
And have been allowed to claim
The wind blows away what it can--
What cannot be tied down
Keep whispering
Your soul into my soul
Keep primal scream tears
Falling into my primal soul
Keep filling up the empty spaces
Keep creating empty spaces
Tearing down the vacant walls
Building up new walls
Opening locked doors
Locking others in turn
As we forever transform together
Under the aegis of the Immortal
As we grow like the roots
Of the banyan tree
Hanging down with the branches
Helping to provide shelter
As we slowly grow closer
To the sweet earth
In silent anticipation
Finally touching
Slowly penetrating
Gently pushing deeper
Until we are of one purpose
Deeply rooted by the banks
Of the Eternal River
That descended from heaven
And flows through
Human spirit transformed
Life-giving water running slow
And deep the source of your whisper--
True essence in deepest longings
Flowing into my source
Pockets of holy energy overflowing
Slowed down to a trickle at times
Going full circle and
Back and forth
From out of reach channels
That something deep beyond
The starry masses
That something some call love
That something some call God
That something flowing & living
In me & you.

That something some call God
That something flowing & living
