And A Night Bird Trills


oh, the stars
the electric blue pulse
of your lips
pulling my skin
oh, this lifetime
in your hands -
wandering an ageless path,
swimming an ancient sea, then
wrapped in
all the arms and legs
of a thousand gods,
my bones shatter
as a universe
streams within

and a night bird trills

    Wow! What a sound —"my bones shatter as a universe streams within"

    And then the next sound.

    Nice!

    What a lovely, sensuous, evocative poem, and the accompanying artwork is stunning. Consider me your newest follower.

    Very nice work. I'm keeping your info. for future reference. I'm working on a book about a Christmas project for families, and will be looking for a cover. Come visit me, if you'd like:
