Love is a Snowflake Descending

(For Harsha)

 

When love comes, it comes as a snowflake

descending upon the breath of the entire cosmos

it swirls from the compassionate heart of those

who have run before us and reached the summit

if floats down ever so gently in profound silence

dauncing in consort with all spiritual ancestors

drifting without direction, first this way, then that

 

When love comes, it comes as a snowflake

dauncing in the intergalactic wind of fire and ice

listening we hear what only the pure heart hears

seeing we see that which only the clean heart sees

falling we softly float downward to and into love

drifting first this way and then that, we discover

that we are a snowflake seen by the eye of God

 

When love comes, it comes as a snowflake

so recognized, we yield, we coalesce, we kneel

as one who discovers final victory only in defeat

endless joy of holy lips kissing profane sorrow

as two embracing in an indigo flash of amethyst

we melt and surrender our oneness to the many

so that many may become one again and again

 

Having done so we join the ethereal chorale

Singing, forever without effort or movement ,

Endlessly choiring the sweet noise of Namaste

 

Namaste, Namaste, Namate, universe without end.
