Ram Dass once said: “The reason we form a conscious marriage on the physical plane with a partner is in order to do the work of coming to God together.”

                                 (for Vince)

he carries my spirit 
each step he walks
silent his vow
footsteps steady
warmed by his fierce boon

his steadfast consideration
brings me to my knees
I weep: "I fail, I fail, I fail" 
his fingertip presses my lips
his lips upturned
with a smile
and I am swept up
set right again
to come to god
