Expel completely the deeply indrawn breath.
There will follow another breath---
release, I live.
A simple exercise
expansion, decompression
the intake of oxygen.
The copper-riveted bellows
re-ignites the hot coals.
Breathe on me, Holy one of God.
The embers of initial love exist
beneath a coating of white ash.
Let me burn, be alight, in You.
