weightless upon us

trying to acknowledge
to describe this experience
something tangible
as she called Your presence
for the Spirit to join us
to fall down on us

a cool mist descending
the mantle, the fire
a presence falling, bright
a taffeta of frost
weightless upon us
the Holy Spirit falling

her calling to You
to fall down upon us
offering us blessing;
Oh Spirit, descending,
come closer, with us
fall down on me.
