Lost in God

What am I? Set down

like this in such immensity,

fragrant as a meadow,

moved by each passing breeze.

Calling out, yet fearful

that my call will be heard,

and destined to be drowned

in another's life              

                             Rilke (Woman in Love)

________________________________

it is

overpowering

to participate in Sacred

in such immensity

devastating perhaps

as one is overwhelmed

overcome

and becomes lost

in such amazing love

I can but cry out

“here I am, I am yours
