We are stars that lost
their way
each of us springing
from a divine moment
of intention or
accident
in that brilliance we
are fired
Look at us now
darkened by soil
grown roots that entrap
yet we can remember
turn our faces to our
sky sisters
and let the song come
as godly utterance
as an animal cry, as a
tearing of this incarnation
the heart remembers the
promise of life
its red flower opens
for Love, only love
