A small exchange -
a joyful exchange,
like water into wine.
Read the message in the clouds
destined to soothe
your bones,
your heart, your sore back,
your head.
Feel it all the way down
to your toes.
It says,
"Love."
Or more precisely,
"You are loved."
Usually carried to you
by my poems,
it is the fire that ignited
my burning desire.
My easy acceptance of the respectful rules
comes from it too.
I can't often show it,
but it's always hiding there somewhere.
Giant. Quiet. Real.
And it just converted
a little water into wine,
transformed the material
Into a spiritual gift.
Not a sacrifice at all -
I call it magic.
40A, I love.
With it I was able to pay
such a tiny price for
a clear message
written in broad daylight
in the sky.
Can you read it?
It's still out there
in the clouds
hanging high
and SHINING.
