the poetry of daniel roest
You Are Gravity You Are Grace


You are Gravity, You are Grace.

Like Dawn, You Happen.

You  Are, and I stand astonished at How You Are,

Why You Are. 


The Force of an Earthquake

and Revolution in my Heart 

Take me with You like Falcons flying on the Wing, 

on the Wind, 


Stones moving down the Beach, 

Rocks crushing Bones in Wild Desert Days, 

and the Suchness of You:

You - 

You Amaze me.
