Hands of the Dove

Saturday 8 January 2005.
 
Her hands make understood
gestures like ornaments in the
landscape furnishing the
living room of the sky
 
Her fingers form instructions
unseen angels absorb
in their ultramarine eyes
 
Her palms protect and herald
God’s eternal quest
fulfilling ancient prophecies
 
Her touch heals in timeless
frequencies the pains
of unimaginable suffering
creating oases of peace
 
Her sheltering hand span
encompasses all in the soundless
fluttering of cosmic fragrance
 
And when asked
what they mean to me
everything will be the answer
