~reflections upon the waters

She is serpentine and extraordinary

she will tell you how beautiful she is

and she is..

They follow her

an entourage seeking spiritual connection

she creates space for them

limiting them without their consent,

choosing who is in her inner circles

telling them how beautiful they all are

but her tongue is split like her energy

She moves as a snake

mesmerized by her own reflection

she will make everyone’s reveries come true

if a nugget of gold with her name etched into it

weaves their dreams like the silver-grey shine within a cloud

she poses as the sun, a thousand suns

fractals of light creating sunbeams,

….ecstatic

Yet, only we can be our own light

that glorious sun

is our own radiance shining through a breaking amber sunset

… while she curls around a trees, hissing

The sun streams glorious across an ancient forest

I find myself there without her

having found my own light

I bless her with appreciation and gratitude

choosing to walk into my own glorious story

I hear the waters of a fresh pond stirring

she caresses her own reflection

she never noticed me, staring with adoration

at her own likeness in the waters
