Colors of Imagination, Colors of Water, Colors of Light

Stones of Heaven

falling like rain

becoming 

the substance of color

Elements 

take the shape

of water, of light

and the movement of thought

Colors of imagination

saturate

the

exquisite

breath

of 

stars

And quietly

the earth sings
this breath of stars
becoming

the many colors

of wind
shaping
the stones of earth
into dream.

Archaeology of color
a movement of light
between shadows
~
Liquid onyx
azure star
coppered fire
 the scarlet gold
~
Blue of wind
 water of azulean
mirror of turquoise
 the bloom of amethyst
breath of white
the song of colors
 returning
into
light.

I wear your ring now, Lass

a ring, one of two,

that we have shared in this life

It was on your hand

until you changed your shape

and went back to the Sea

I wear your ring now, Lass

and how it glimmers

through the hours

of my life

I bring my hands together

when in a moment,

a piece of grace

it is your hand 

that I hold again

Your ring, one of two,

My ring, lost

in the ocean of the world

Your ring remained

when you returned to the Sea

I wear your ring now, Lass

feeling your beautiful hands

within my own,

when I pray

your hands are with me,

when I touch the flowers in the garden

our hands together

taste the petals and sunlight

Your ring glimmers

as your spirit glimmered

when once you quietly slipped

into the skin of a woman

and became the glow

of this life

I still taste your smile

and the honeyed light 

that surrounded you

I forgive you, Lass

for slipping out of your skin

to return to the Sea

I wear your ring now

and know

when I slip from my own skin

our ring

will bring you to me 

and together

we will journey home.

The old language
speaks to us
in the light of the stars

Inside of rain
the colors of knowledge
bloom
and breathe

Voyage with wind
to one end of time
and return with the beauty
that was tasted there

When we travel
we must look to the sky
to find the map
that leads North

...to find the map that leads home.

a fall of light
from within the sky
speaks an old language
into the imagination
shaping myths
from starlight
and the color of clouds
