Pentecost Poetry

Something immense within,
a seed bursting its case,
a mother with child,

the only passenger
in the little boat
of your life,

a whole world’s worth
of divine love
pent up in you,

vast, given, swelling 
with heat and beauty,
your own particular fire—

let it out 
or it will sear you!
Let it out!
