while I sat pondering in my own garden
the moon's silent silver rays called upon me
a voice in the breeze danced among tall grass
whispering and urging me to play
I lay back and let the willow wish me
*tickled
bemused
silenced*
I schemed a star streak across the sky
then many more after its first spark
it rained on me celestial crystals
all at once, the wishes of the my eternal youth
rushed forward in play and desire and dream
**play screamed
desire rolled
and dream gleamed**
I found myself uplifted in the dark blue sky
floating in your dream wave
tossed in your delightful currents
resting in your warm soul
if a fool ever crossed my path
a presence he'd never known or seen
it would be mine
before another's
that he'd bear
and indulge
before straying
*it's pulling
and pulling*
I breathe your fire
I burn in your gaze
I dance for you
oh don't you know
I dance for you
