Sister Poetry

What is this fear tearing at my center
Seeking only light and release?
What is this unknown longing
Reaching deep within, dreaming of ecstasy?
What is this depth of knowing the unknown
And craving only to understand?
What is this Love within me, around me
So my own love or one love?
Have you given us Your love to love with
And we only gradually come to know
To give, to be given.
Ah, Lord, 
What is all this?
