Feast of St. Valentine

-------The Distance
The distance between us
is holy ground
to be traversed
feet bare
hands raised
------- in joyous dance
so that once it is
--------------crossed
the tracks of our pilgrimage
shine in the darkness
& light our coming together
in a bright & steady light.

---------La Distancia
La distancia entre nos
es suelo sagrado
para atravesarse
con los pies desnudos
elevadas las manos
----------en danza jubilosa
para que una vez
----------cruzado
las huellas de nuestro peregrinaje
brillen en la oscuridad
y alumbren nuestro encuentro
con luz brillante y fija.
