Who Is The Friend?


Who is the Friend?
The one who placed
an infinitesimal bell
of silence
in your heart
between what rises
and falls.
When you hear this
unstruck sound,
stars tremble.
Even the darkness
grows intimate
and soft,
because the breath
that encircles the universe
is yours.
 
   
Painting of Mary Magdalene by Sue Ellen Parker
