"Cashmere"

I follow love down the rock mountain
Across the rippling river tide
Silent on needled carpet, through the forest pine
Sure footed, taught by trust, nothing but
My love to guide me least I fall
Though the way I know by heart this time

The Prince of Procreation welcomes me
I bow my head, place cheek to staff
Pausing to breath earth and listening hear
You moan somewhere up above as
I move to the underside, arrive lost again
In fields of downy wool, spun to soft cashmere
