O tender heart, be not ashamed of fear,
For even the rose bows before it blooms.
The flame that bends before the breath of night
Rises brighter for having known the wind.
What seems uncertain is but sacred growth;
The moon herself is shaped by hidden change.
Stand gentle in thy quiet becoming,
For love refines all souls it dares to touch.
Love is no still stone,
It is a fire that learns through becoming.
O tender heart, be not ashamed of fear,
For even the rose bows before it blooms.
The flame that bends before the breath of night
Rises brighter for having known the wind.
What seems uncertain is but sacred growth;
The moon herself is shaped by hidden change.
Stand gentle in thy quiet becoming,
For love refines all souls it dares to touch.
Love is no still stone,
It is a fire that learns through becoming. M. Dangi
