if daffodils sang

my saddest love song for you

would you listen then?

 

 

have you wondered why

that great answer of silence

exists everywhere

 

 

strata of colour

layer upon life layer

yet we choose each shade

 

 

intersecting now

illusions, past and future

falling, fallen grace

 

 

always a corner

filled with light, sun or moonbeam

as in a dark heart

 

 

at its center, red

like blood out of which life flows

perfect flowering

 

 

take me far away

on gossamer angel wings

don't tell me where, when

 

 

having been tricked once

not quite right light obscure truth

memories shadows

 

 

what stands before me

edge of eternity, fear

before I leap, calm

 

 

 

all rainbows exist

each living duality

when time meets water

 

 

of mirror fragments

and truth reflections shattered

or lies rather lived

 

 

there is honesty

trees bare of leaf and colour-

earth simply stated

 

 

I envy the world

where suns rise and set untouched

where skies hold the truth

 

 

when trees shed their leaves

I stand alone uncovered

bare miracles both

 

 

in a dream we met

I learned patience and I knew

all sacred oneness

 

 

shaman spoke to me

in muted sepia tones

my soul understood

 

 

I too remember

graceful scenes of youth now gone

stored in secret flesh

 

 

high the ocean swells

I am a water bird flight

Movements of freedom

 

 

would that I could be

delicate enough to love

even that which hurts

 

 

bare tree silhouette

pale purple, reddening sky

magnificent eve

 

 

pure white perfection

ever hold fast your secrets

decay, death and rose

 

 

truly no words speak

no breath no life no colour

washed ashore humbly

 

 

we are all rainbows

sometimes clashing now and then

between light and dark

 

 

stretched to my limits

above and beyond colour

I become seeing

 

 

I am rock and sea

crushing crashing then soft breeze

a strange oddity

 

 

of smaller dragons,

green-hopping now fence flying,

birds of prey waiting

 

 

Milton left words here

truth beauty and paradise

now love has found me

 

 

my brief interlude

midnight splendor sea and sky

to sleep once again

 

 

pure severity

covered white upon whiteness

a timeless waiting

 

 

how does the eye see

everything but its own self?

Strange intimate shore

 

 

hello sea sky earth

I feel so alive today

connected senses

 

 

mountains and mirrors

a yearn to climb and reflect

Tao in balance
