break in the grey sky

i.

clouds  enclosed Char

comforting her

wrapped in the grip

of winter's cold hands

her woman's heart wanted something akin to sun

wanted a man to swallow her heated breasts

and between grunts and passion-eyes

lay light upon her flesh

ii.

against clouds grayed by Winter-winds

and the down of chilly nights

she opened to the sun

locking her clouds away

laying open her wanting flesh

granting him both time and day

twas a wonder-moment of heat

a scene of smiles released

when he broke the surrounding darkness

with bowls of liquid-light

laying it upon her ground

with a breakfast of laughter complete

*Reflections of Jean Sulivan:

  -The path toward faith is also a matter of unlearning things.  Spiritual sanity resides in a youthfulness which spontaneously rejects everything that is static.  Almighty God, King, Lord, Prosecutor, Judge, Spouse, Lover of the soul, Father - get rid of all those words, and thousands of others, until nothing is left.  Nothing, that's our name for God, condemned not to intervene, for fear of making us all immature.  That means we shouldn't be afraid to use the most everyday words.  Only you know what you've put in them - hidden love, deep laughter.

  -Remember, God speaks through the lips that happen to be there - those of the unbeliever as well as those of the saint and through the silence of those who no longer have anything to say.

  -Don't expect manna every morning...
