Valley by Andrea Seek


Valley

I know the hand before I perceive the name.
A letter, both welcome and generous
Mailed by souls, to me, long dead and buried...

Dry bones
these friends jump up
Assemble themselves
En~flesh and en~tendon
Whirl with spirit.

Comes, O'breath of the four winds and
enters in
I gasp, rattled
God's hand upon me
These slain shall rise!
