predicting another world

the universe shakes, shimmers

dragonfly eyes take shape in the darkness

wings are yesterday and tomorrow

the universe shifts, shimmers

wolves gather to chorus in the desert

wings are yesterday and tomorrow

meadows celebrate wild

wolves gather to chorus in the desert

roots of tulips anchor the dark story

meadows celebrate wild

white petals dance spirals

roots of tulips anchor the dark story

somewhere a swallowtail emerges

white petals dance spirals

a great uncrinkling like spindrift

somewhere a swallowtail emerges

tears, ocean tides drawn by the moon

a great uncrinkling like spindrift

echoes of the stone tossed in a pool

tears, ocean tides drawn by the moon

the wet stone resonates

echoes of the stone tossed in a pool

swallowtail flutters her wings

the wet stone resonates

buttercups and watercress thrive in the ditchbank

swallowtail flutters her wings

sunlight circles light to life

buttercups and watercress thrive the ditchbank

ephemeral window ice crystals

sunlight circles light to life

sunset and new dreams

ephemeral window ice crystals

white owl weaves the branches

sunset and new dreams

wearing moonlight on her wings

white owl weaves the branches

she understands the underside of leaves

wearing moonlight on her wings

a koan of living light

she understands the underside of leaves

shaping the cosmos inside us inside the universe

a koan of living light

how goldfinch and sunflower arise together

shaping the cosmos inside us inside the universe

breeze flutters house wrens

how goldfinch and sunflower arise together

life breath is carried in the wind

breeze flutters house wrens

falling into love

life breath is carried in the wind

shaped by wholeness

falling into love

wonder resounds a single revelatory cord

shaped by wholeness

compassion flourishes

wonder resounds a single revelatory cord

cranes carry prayers

compassion flourishes

geese weave thier way home

cranes carry prayers

consciousness ignites in flowing sentience

geese weave their way home

ocean surrenders to cloud, cloud to river

consciousness ignites in flowing sentience

dragonfly eyes take shape in darkness

ocean surrenders to cloud, cloud to river

predicting another world

I never liked writing until fourth grade, when my teacher started to require us to write a page a day. I wrote poetry in a big hand to stretch the rules, but eventually I started to explore. I had a w.. more..
