Simply Thou and I:
Friend, you are life. You are the life, this life, this one life, this only life. You I seek to meet more and more, to commune with. I want no mediation between us, simply us between us, simply Thou and I. And you then are in the meeting of others, others who have their views of you, who can help us all catch glimpses of you. Friend, come to me, I will come close, I will move toward you, open to you.

….The more life grows, the more it comes together.
There is movement. There are betweens. All touch others. All together are creation. There is but one life…and that life touches and is touched. Life crawls over the seething mass of life and moves toward its food: other life. Life needs life in order to go on. Life feeds on itself and generates more of itself. Life expands, grows outward, cycles, moves. Human life is more than the plants and animals it feeds upon: human life needs some other kind of food, which also comes from life. The more life grows, the more it comes together.

We are imperfect because we are incomplete/I pray we never be complete/….
We are imperfect because we are incomplete
I pray we never be complete
For then we die eternally
So let us seek each day to fit
The world to our several hearts
Or our hearts to the moving world
& so discover fresh anew our unending life
