Delved

Beneath I breathe
Deeper I die
Delved I recede
Unearthed I obey

The earth! The earth!
Upturned, I am glad!
The depths! The depths!
Revealed, I glorify!

I yield to command
I surrender to spade
His is the healer's hand
His is this glade

I LOVE this. I love the strength of the words... The victory of Easter and spring. Awesome. :) I am excited to see your poetry keep coming as it grows...
