Wednesday-Morning Love
I
Though my soul, mind, and body
Walk around naked,
Nobody sees them that way.
They know no shame,
For they're clothed in your love.
II
We're both so grateful
That we've waited,
With a grass blade's patience,
To reach this age,
When peace is all we need,
Peace and love
And the abundant wonder
Of how it took two lovers
Such a long now
To grow through their I's and me's,
To the selfless transcendency
Of their us and we.
