whirling-dervish

spinning in an orbit

waiting for the next shift

of balance and rhythm

 

gravitational pull

lines up the heavens

while you spin

 

a dance of ecstasy

alone in a desire

for the touch of mystery

 

when the Holy arrives as

a whisper on your cheek

words pulsing in your ear

 

does the spinning stop

when you simply walk

feet bare toward the light

 

Pamela Olson, 3/7/09
