Bridal Veil Falls 

Veil of water,
Wrapping stone face,
Shimmering in afternoon light,
Awaiting the groom.

As prism of color,
Lace the neck,
Transparent beauty,
Awaiting the moment.

Lift the veil,
Radiant expression,
Call heart deeper,
Nature arouses soul.

Veiled

There are times in life when things seem veiled.   Where the direction one should go seems hidden and seem so lost.  Moments where relationships seem veiled and even distorted.  There comes a point to lift the veil and everything becomes clear.  A place of vulnerability and risk; where what has been dormant is awakened.

         Veiled
Hidden and veiled.
Barrier between.
Image distorted.
Intimacy aborted.

Raise the veil.
Face to face.
Invasion of space.
Disruption of self in this place.

Look deep in the eyes.
Unhinged by the depths.
Relationship transformed.
In the lifting of the veil.
