Love letter # 225
…And in the evening, when you are like the beauty of the dusk, I walk in your pale glory and lift up mine eyes to you. There I see the wonder; and am overflowing. At the sign of your arrival, and at the sound of your breathing…there I feel the tides arising; as though you…

Love letter # 291
The wellspring of my fortitude is the river of my pain; and the light that I see by is the maker of my deepest shadows. It is you – my dawn and my night. And your blessed kiss. My succour and my suffering. When we love we open, the gates to the vast and contrary…

Love letter # 303
You are the golden light. I am simply shined upon. You are the mist in the morning. I am the hill that you swathe. You are the rain falling warmly. I am the river you made. And we are the sea and the sky, and the earth and the stars and all time.

Love letter # 262

Love letter # 183
I walked in the splendid shadows just to be with you. I learned the songs of the seraphim just to hear you sing. And I swam in the silken sea so as to have your arms about me. When I feel that you are not with me, I look again, and realise that you are…

Love letter # 88
Last night it rained like sorrow. Today the air is thick, every drenched flower sweet with scent. I move through the humid light and – wouldn’t you know it – all I see is you. I carry you in my thoughts like a half remembered song, and I find that I still move in time.…

Love letter # 196
You are like the connectedness of things: the invisible strings, the wideness of plains and the coolness of air, time stretched out like a ribbon of stars. I walk in your aura. I listen to your awesome quietness. Your breathing makes my heart beat. I am the blessed one – loving you like this. It…

Love letter # 212
You drove a river right through me; pierced me with a parcel of light. Breath suspended – I was quiet inside – like the still of a beautiful evening. And when I inhaled, you flowed; and I was made of you, and you were made of me. And we became we.
