These Bones Can Live – v6


seeing movement beginning
dry bones on the valley floor
coming together
a sound, moving
these dry bones
redeeming us, joining
becoming as one
one people, one body
pulled together
into union, joining
alive, as one
bone to bone
sinew, flesh, reborn
flesh pulled together
within the vine
together, alive,
these bones can live
