it glows between whatever words we use,
it finds a way to dart out
like a child's skip,
like a smile that sparks between two beings,
a shaft of trust that plumbs the deepest histories
When we listen in that language,
any words will work
and few of them are needed -
life blooms up from stone,
things that were lost
become the trail that leads us home.
