The Hand in Midair : Spiritual Development

written by Poet : EC


Swimming, floating, dancing - all in midair
what an exploit, and I'm doing it
wonder what holds me up like this
it's like sitting in the palm of a big, strong hand
I even flip-flap on the forefinger
or so it feels

Wonder where I am when flip-flapping like this
an unknown realm, in the shape of a hand?
And me, maybe I'm a handful for this hand?
Something like a pet being bad?
Gosh, I may end up in the ASPCA-shelter

No, the hand is steady and even loving
it holds me like the ground holds all of us
I revel in its love and strength
