Inner Dawn

An onyx layer of cosmos
lies behind the mist costumed trees....
the remains of night falling over the edge
at my back 
the first caress of day 
rubs my heels with prophesy.
So I come
from a chasm deep
within myself
spinning saffron ribbons
from my aching torso.
Echoing on the living Mountain 
returning
to me with 
secrets from Her crystal walls.
