home
back
She woke to find star-gods falling in her lap,
or so it seemed when fading daylight curled
around her hours-long reverie beneath the
trees beside the stream that flows from lake
to lake, its unseen future flowing to the ocean.

Wild snowflakes tumble-blossomed, as they
flurry-raced each other for first contact with
the songbird pulse of newly feathered spring.

Stumbling to her feet she gasped, then laughed,
entranced at how a world can change so fast.
She simply hadn�t noticed that the evening had
drawn breath and given winter one more chance
to play out late with friends and open feelings.

Whiteness scattered sacred whispers over tree
and path, swirling, floating, dancing with the stream,
multi-coupling eagerly with subtle-fingered touch.

Crunching home through crystallised white magic,
she felt each precious kiss melt into her face and hair,
crowding her with loveliness and an open invitation
to taste the sky upon her tongue, to swallow tiny gods
and cherish them forever in the stillness of her warmth.
