Night Meditation

Raising a fire
thoughts light
movements fuel
swirling incandescence
enveloping this silent witness
reflecting pools reveal a smoky glow
that traces my profile with
elegant tendrils
sliding opening 
gently unfolding
like new wet moth wings
there
a breath of love sets me aflame
in some cosmic spiral of sparks
glowing amber white
in the purple midnight veil.
