Lovely Poem

The House Of Belonging:
David Whyte

I awoke
This morning
In the gold light
Turning this way
And that

Thinking for
A moment
It was one
Day
Like any other.

But
The veil had gone
From my darkened heart
And I thought
It must have been the quiet
Candlelight
That filled my room

It must have been
The first
Easy rhythm
With which I breathed
Myself to sleep,

It must have been
The prayer I said
Speaking to the otherness
Of the night.

And I thought
This is the good day
You could
Meet your love.
