Splendor Thirst

swallows between worlds

           ripples streaking mirrored clouds ~

                    drinking on the wing

I read this a few times, & didn't want to echo ... love swallows, irrisdisent blue-black Tree Swallows near lakes in Maryland come to mind. Line 2 is sheer genius (if I may say so!) Peace/Paz/Pace

Splendid, Maureen! I love poetry that transcends, rides a beam of light into infinity. This one does it.
