Queen of Heather
As one walks the wooded road
The arches of foliage intricate like the mind
Beautify the forest path
The nearby rushes bring tear to my eye
There is something serene about them
Something mysterious
Something that puts soul on fire
A burning desire
Like the one that I feel
When I look at lovers eyes
Forest is sometimes young lad
Sometimes wise old man
But today it is a beautiful lady
Or actually two
One is a scent of the meadow
The nectar of flowers
The taste of honey
The soul of amber
With lively green eyes
Like grass
This is spring
The other is little bit older
But no less beautiful
With colorful leaves
She lives in the wind
Murmuring in those rushes
Her eyes are violet
Like heather
Which you can smell
When near the lake
Smell awakens your spirit
But there is more
Air grows dense
Above the lake
Mist appears
With spellbinding mystique
When child spring was the favorite
With sent of nectar turning to honey
Green eyes full of energy and life
Fall on the other hand
Was when school starts
And kids not always
Look forward to it
I not always did
But it is fall
With smell of heather
That awakens the soul
With azure sky
Melting
With gentle ripples of the lake
Dense air sending its scent
From the abyss
That opens the portal
Of mathematical nirvana
Looking even behind the hand
Writing the laws of universe
And it is it
The scent of heather
During fall night
And the deepest night
Becomes light on the dark side
Of the moon
Salvation
Awakening deepest reaches of your soul
