Kindred Company

Kindred company

is such sweet balm

after solitude

Every wonder

made more full

by its sharing

All the magic

held now forever

In-between

A treasure house

of "we" and "us"

threading stories

through the sheer

fabric of space

now held safe

Now held sacred

in the holy body

of kinship

Enlarging the organ

of friendship

to hold the sun

far greater than

its parts

an exponential alchemy

of joy

to quench a thirsty heart

to make me smile

nay, laugh out loud

in the sweet freedom

of unequivocal Love

and once again

remember

I am never just me

but always a "we"

Red threads weaving

through all the

In-betweens

The wild web

of Life Itself

All parts at home

Within the Whole

The fullest wonder

of all

If only we knew

Deep in our bones

Perhaps parting

would be more

than just sweet sorrow.
