Your Arms

Loureine Aber

It is like being in the dark, your arms—
A quiet breathless dark that moves the kingdoms of the world, sceptre and crown.
It is like being on a forgotten hillside when the rain swishes low to the call of the buttercups.
Talk is far-off, and empty deeds flung to the wind—
It is like being upheld in a great silence.
