Beloved

A child gazes on
as the sunbeams glisten
on the wings of a bird,

but it is he who flies high;
his spirit lifting
beyond the weight of time
and this world.

The songbird whistles
like the child's grandmother,
while soaring for her young
uplifting their needs
as prayers
to a limitless sky.

He beholds the world
through her eyes,
and becomes
an eternal embrace of love.
