Games and Dreams

Radiant waves of emotions, full of hope.
Hearty beef stew with raisins and pickled beats.
We gained wisdom from our mothers.
Trusting the saints who walk beside us.
Into rivers we bathe away our shadows. 
Lights favor us with songs.
Jungles of bone.
Sand gave us the glass.
Knitting heavens weave.
Yearning for earthquakes.
Wake us when the sky is gone.
Many did not wait for us.
Roses laid waste by acidic snowfall.
