Fair Fairways

Up from the steep depths of all we wanted to find
Were plumb lines that wound through circled spaces 
Conceding not in cloaks of doubt
To measure the hid light there and the lined parts of seven
Those that come in hunted pourings upheld by the few

Only telling things lifted there went flying about 
Through the gifted part of four in lines times-ed of seven
The twisting part tearing there, aligned with joy within
And the better part of two caught up in heaven’s rain
Pausing not to filter through on level plains

Winding vespers visible silently keep watch
Long piping down the valley bright held of the greening
More summoned of the brave than the sweetly good
Free from separate pieces all made one
Callings of the whistling in the yearning parts of you

In life’s fair fairways troubled shoots went through
All purple featherings paired with diamonds in between
In hope of night’s troubled passing borne 
Where all was swiftly lighted Your way, Yourway!
Through our feeble portioned patterns, running through

In hopes of our return and no more migrating
Flocks flying in densely compacted forays
And pourings out through unveiled openings
Flowering through things which pierced walled cavities
Taken up from skegs in all our hollowed out wells

Patterned clearings of cloud in mystery’s unravelling
Unbending partings which draw us out
Up through fair fairways in our mountain places
To broader palaces within the tender heart inside us
And learning there of the cutting, the treasure it held
In halves of willowed things the giving part of two
Pressures of lifted footings ripening through pain
Carrying the blessing part of things –           
What we could see in all places of the expanding
Freed possessions all loosely held, the beauties of the fearless  

All sown in tapestries of love, yet borne of bronze armour
And bright shields and spears behind walled gardens
Fearless rubbing rings of things in golden castings
Free flowing writings lining our treasured places
Wrought through the releasing of those things within
