Grow

I want to grow graciously outward,
To leave behind the Riverbend,
To drop what I can do without,
Come quietly to myself again.

I want to riddle up and secret down,
Do more than simply long to go,
I want to find that tune in me
To strengthen strings and follow flow.

I want to find a sacred song,
An answered prayer, a name and verse--
By seeking you, I seek myself,
And so, your love I follow first.
