It's Not Magic - Gregory Orr

 It's not magic;it isn't a trick.

Every breath is a resurrection.

And when we hear the poem 

Which is the world, when our eyes
Gaze at the beloved's body,

We're reborn in all the sacred parts
Of our own bodies:

The heart

Contracts, the brain

Releases its shower

 Of sparks,

And the tear

Embarks on its pilgrimage

Down the cheek to meet

The smiling mouth,
