How does divine

light and love

become flesh

transcendent form

into sinew

bone and blood

a mystery

like matter exploding

forming a universe

to disassemble mystery

comprehend wonder

is like trying to define

why a sunset is beautiful

or mountains

inspire awe.

Mystery embraced

opens

allows

Incarnation

love and light

to awaken the soul

reforming

and transforming

the divine incarnate.
