Written by Brenda Mox
Wrapped in an invisible
robe of peace,
on a stroll toward
the morning sun,
rising with the fanfare
of flutes-like birdsongs.
Five bright notes fluttering
the sounds of butterflies
over glassy skies.
She eats the music
and it swallows her.
From a silvery blue dawn
glowing in the foothills,
to the pink smudge of light,
the thumbprint of dawn
casts slanted shafts of rose gold
on moss draped roots.
A fiery seed of light and heat
splashing warmth
across wide pastures of purple flower petals.
Her heart, a bright energy sphere
rises like the run.
From deep in her marrow
she feels the brightness emanate
as morning clouds lift like burning logs.
Heart and breath unbounded
fill all time and space.
All self-interest suddenly burns away
as she breathes deeply
the aromas of earth and sky
and drinks the living air
of early spring, in slow gulps,
vital as dew at the dawn of creation.
The Bird Child climbs
her spiral to the sun,
black eyes backlit with mercy
transcending the sleep of time.
