Stars in Spiral Song

“Stars in Spiral Song”

Penetrate me with passion,
pure and holy flame.

Wild and free, galaxies spin
cast forth, strewn like dice
loaded and shot wide;
a sweep and stars dance
comets sing, take flight
on sparkling wing to find
wonders, and praise Your name.

Dance with me, locked.

One.

Send shocks, I receive.
spiral in the stars.
spiral song.
the lovers careen
on the rim of what is.
bliss.  You, Christ,
my lover be.
