Time is adrift
One waits for one’s gift

Crystals of amber and gray shadow
Say to the the pomegranate like girl, hello
Looks restless your sparrow
Clouds float in your blue thought

The turquoise water of the lake
Looks at her thoughts opaque
From deep cave a green snake
Slithering towards her white teapot

Slender branches arch over the water
Looking for the focused archer
And the consequent breakers
To cool her mind distraught

In light and shade the path is waiting too
For the rainbow the horses will come through
Moments say, let's wait for the coup
Making the girl a cosmonaut

A brook besought
So well hardbought
