- Indigo -

                         ~ appreciate the feeling of the stillness
                             - and you will understand everything better ~
                                              my quote


                                        The color of indigo
                                     screwed into my blood
                           Mountain ranges and craggy cliff faces
                                     at the top God's pulpit

                                A beauty you wanted to own
                                    forget that right away
                               Leave the blue butterfly alone
                              I am grateful for having seen it

                          An unripe blueberry meadow, promise
                             two sisters that will eat in the fall
                             indigo crystals gather in the grass
                                   always play with full effort
