Glittering falling moondrops
Giving birth to graceful nymphs
Moonlit airborne vagabonds
Winged gypsies beneath asters
Incarnations of freedom in flight
Deities in their magical realms
Goddesses in miniature

ETERNITY
Eternity
How can a man hold water in the hand?
does it run and drip and gone…
How can a man live again?
and live forever then…
Forever is a moondrop a lightbeam a dream…
Life is like a fraction of the aeon
the never ending particle the spinning article…
Never needing sleep never needing wheat
but having very much having all the love…
Starting over to do a thing and starting over
and then starting over again…
Without end no end no stop no more halt
no lame thing no pain…
No need for anything all needs provided
making flowers grow…
Meeting people that were dead
and now alive for evermore…
Water needs a container and to be contained
a cup without a saucer is such a lame thing…
Eye want to go to Heaven only after
only after eye marry the poor mans daughter.
Give me an eternity of love
Bless my only one.
Bless my love.
Eternity.

The silver message came to me on
bubbles blown off waxy wings
from bumble bees who rarely sting
like a school of fishes lingering
in the shade of my shadow standing free
like a beacon among the waves in the sea.
The glow of the clouds as they light up the trees.
(green glowing clouds in a lightning dream).
This message, tied up with a bow,
was filled with things one ought to know
From snails with iridescent shells
to necklaces of hollow bells
the way to tether the rainbow's end
and a thousand ways to keep a friend
a moondrop tear cast amber gold
and flowers from bright seeds unfold
just where to find and keep the pace
and how to read a lion's face
the passage to the jungle lair
and 40 ways to do one's hair.
The silver message came to me
as flowers floating from a tree
which floated in upon the breeze
and landed in my palm with ease...
