before you were flesh

before you were flesh
you were a spring blossom,
an amalgam of sun
and nurturing rain come softly
in the grace of night

before you were a blossom,
you were fascination,
a free-floating design
in the all-reaching universe
of god's creative passion

before you were real
you were eternal

before you were one
you were all

~Allen Itz

Allen writes: I began writing again in 1998 after thirty years of attending to other matters like career and family. I have a special regard for Cayuse Press because it was my first on-line publisher. My work has appeared frequently in The Green Tricycle, and The Horsethief's Journal, plus a number of other online poetry journals. Email.
