The visible and the invisible

working together in common cause

to produce the miraculous

I am thinking of the way the intangible air

passed at speed round a shaped wing

easily holds our weight

So may we, in this life
trust

to those elements
we have yet to see

or imagine,
and look for the true

shape of our own self,
by forming it well

to the great
intangibles about us.
