The Dwelling Place by Maria Shriver

The Dwelling Place
I dwell in possibility
Wrote Emily Dickinson
Where do you dwell she queried
In what do you dwell
Think about it
My heart pounded
I strained to think
Harder and harder
I searched for my dwelling place
My mind bounced
Not here not there
This question spoke to me from my deepest depths
Until all went quiet
You dwell in love
Said a little voice
My child you dwell in the hope of love the possibility of love
The healing nature of it
You were born from love
Now you live from that deepest source
You my child dwell in love
So be it
