Spring Delight Poem by Robin Dhanoa

Sin, and the dark
Of forbidden flesh, whose lasting bite
Brought lifelessness into the world
And all our carnal incantations,
With loss of conscience, until one greater life
Restores us, with its blissful sense.

Out of Heaven: or an immortal Earth
Delight us, with Eden that flows
That with no weight we intend to soar
Above the mount:

Transformed:

In Spring delight,
Invoke my eyes to the fire,
My Spirit that does desire.
What in me is bland
Spice my margins, my narrow channels of blood.
What is low, raise and support
My life from the ground.

Risen from the Earth,
Lives brightly in my body,
Blossomed, Heaven aloud.
