Long ago
in an ancient land
a young woman
shaped beautiful words
weaving stories
from threads of despair

She offered
her beautiful sadness
a sacred imagination
 and crafting songs,
 incanting tales of magic
she saved her life
and the lives of those she loved

...her name was Scheherazade.

Scheherazade knows 

the Lioness - 

the one who guards the entrance

that opens the sky

The Lioness knows

a path through the clouds

that unveils the journey

and unveils our dreams

Scheherazade knows

to weep at the door

offering her tears

the Lioness will drink

the salted darkness of her grief

The Lioness knows

and knowing transforms-

the taste of beauty in sadness

 these tears become songs

this sorrow will become stories of light

Scheherazade knows

the Lioness

who guards the entrance 

to our dreams

The Lioness knows

for healing

for beauty

for love

she will open the door.

Scheherazade enters
the sky of the Lioness
releasing
breath of grief
opening
the deep imagination
where sorrows
become wings
circling
closer
into
light.
