This is love:
to fly toward a secret sky,
to cause a hundred veils
to fall each moment.

First to let go of life.

Finally, to take a step
without feet.

      I just read thi tonight and well here ya go

      " Love is the Water of Life

      Everything other than love for the most beautiful God
      though it be sugar- eating.
      What is agony of the spirit?
      To advance toward death without seizing
      hold of the Water of Life.

      A moment of happiness,
      you and I sitting on the verandah,
      apparently two, but one in soul, you and I.
      We feel the flowing water of life here,
      you and I, with the garden's beauty
      and the birds singing.
      The stars will be watching us,
      and we will show them
      what it is to be a thin crescent moon.
      You and I unselfed, will be together,
      indifferent to idle speculation, you and I.
      The parrots of heaven will be cracking sugar
      as we laugh together, you and I.
      In one form upon this earth,
      and in another form in a timeless sweet land. "
