Poem
A body abandoned needs to mourns its last breath in death a heart cast aside still aches to meet its last beat and a free spirit yearns for a winged monarch moment to fly in the spirit of freedom… opportunity flares a tongue snaky and bittersweet.. a flicker grows flames that twist passion’s kiss with kismet a chance to escape on a breath of air an exhalation; warm incense offered to vesper - the wish of a scent to slip through the keyhole above the hiss of heat and gasps of air rushing combustion to a roar airy mystics spoke in the eerie smoke w h i s p e r s urge the purge of perishable pain unclasping lonely-linger’s grasping fingers soft-spun knit and purl unravels as vintage yarn twined with sun and rain unties - aging rays fail to stave Winter’s grays and the ethereal thread of an earthly creation releases its tendril from the spinning wheel’s weave of circular seasons from seed to harvest and warmth to chill vestiges of sisterly hands cup a ceded sigh chrysalis celebrates destined to re-emerge a butterfly terminal tremble of a twilight trill is hushed vulnerability swaddled cradled by clouds of silver and gold a mortal’s surrender consummates upon the pyre - cinders cleansed of tears and cries and vices but never the dreamy intrinsic colors of the opal’s unfurling blaze she ascends a flash of embers relieved of ash taking fire to the skies with a tigress torch igniting molten pools spooning the spine of the western shadow heralding an awakened afterglow to the afterlife - lamplight gilds mare’s tails hooking heavens pathways adrift from the burning thurible of a trinity on the cusp of rebirth... incense rises upon a heated atmosphere riding the riddle of the four winds beyond realms of soil and salt - reason and logic yonder the profound truth of the-not-humanly-known seeing past reflections within mere margins of a mind’s mirror accepting the enlightening throb of the enigmatic pulse of creation becoming one with the ultimate mystery the wish of a scent to slip through the keyhole fulfilled with exchange of gifts - the offering of her sunset shroud for the white mantle of sunrise
