Ghosted blue and red stems bright
I see the image clear as light 
Beauty hidden from their sight 
Dreamlike creature God's delight

I live in wonder of what I see 
Things I've never really seen 
Blurred and smeared and disappeared 
In a forest of  dead-minded days

I took a breath and looked at me 
All the wonders I came to see 
I see in all around me too
Sensual strength and morning dew
