Breath of Dreams
Quietly streaming
through the breath of dreams
in clouds
the whispers came
in colors from scarlet to midnight
with secrets known in our deepest places
where sacred words
disappear in measureless time
Words that speak
in amaranthine languages
of persona and subliminal
origins and ancestry
inexhaustible and ever present
For the leaves were talking
in their green shimmer and shake
and sway
with
words grounded to trees
spreading in patterns
on currents of chaos
in zephyrs off rivers flow
blowing
Streaming through the breath of dreams
in clouds
"Breezing trees
heard the whisper of leaves"
