Words poised on my tongue,
courage blinks, then vanishes
silence takes its place.

skeleton leaf rests,

veins trace whispers of autumn,

time pressed between lines.
A special bookmark I have.

behind glass she sits,

swallows dart through falling rain,

dreams take flight with them.

Fire kissed her throat, a burning rose,

and fearless, she entered the cold embrace—

the water, a mirror of shattered stars,

her closed eyes carved constellations,

as the universe spun softly in her veins.
Since I can swim here anytime even I the Winter alone in the cold seas, I have a tendency to float staring at the sky, the stars and listening to the hum of the Earth. I am truly amazed at how small and insignificant we are. Okay I've done this drunk too many times also.

golden sun sinks low,

silhouettes of trees stand still,

reflections shimmer.
The trees breathe
in a language
older than time.
