Mother Ocean

Mother Ocean

many times have I been touched

by You.

In having done so,

you love me from my depths

even now.

Even in mere words of another,

you transfer your vastness-unity

as heart-thought

Engulfing me,

the salt doll, who in grace,

had entered you.

Sweet Vastness,

I have know loss of form in Thee but,

not Your thanksgiving-Consciousness.

(25 April ’99)
