Great Spirit of All That Is,

We snuggle up in Your embrace,

Feel your Arms around us, holding us near

Your breath drawing in and out

in the slow rise and fall of our chests

We e-x-h-a-l-e.....................

Slow and deep

Relaxing the full weight of us into the safety of you.

What it is to just be held.

What it is to sink the soft weight of us into the certain depths of you.

Held.

Not falling.

Held.

Not adrift.

Held.

Not lost.

Here.

With you.

Now.

Always.

We rest.
