A Thousand Steps

truth exists in the essence
the natural scene
both seen and unseen

a thousand steps thru clover
just to see you breathe
a nuance discover
budding of another

to come alive
from outside
where streams exceed
and exhale life
upon dire needs
of the expected
the unexpected

entranced
your exhibition
enhanced with a view
a kiss in the wind
or two
the mountains and below
desire taking tow

and I'm off to sea/see
the pure laid down
in everything
