Faith

As swimmers dare to lie face to the sky and water bearns them, as hawks rest upon air and air sustains them, so would I learn to attain freefall, and float into Creator Spirit’s deep embrace, knowing no effort earns that all-surrounding grace. --Denise Levertov

This poem is not called 'Faith.' It is called 'Avowal" (though it certainly does talk about faith). Thank you for posting it. When I discovered it (just yesterday) I started setting it to music. - Tim
