Yesterday
Traces confused me
Centipedes
Crawling slow
Winding through the arctic show
Of shimmering sheen
You took me
Into wilderness
Skies splitting
Waking dream
We are more than what we seem
Our hands tools of light
Energy
Sheer waves to harness
Within limbs
Through the Heart
Will done before we depart
Into the ninth realm
Star at helm
Invoking weather
Son of sun
Moon daughter
Ten steps to reach the altar
Promise of union
She robes me
Confusion of frames
I desist
She insists
Equal slabs of red and blue
Now we are betrothed
Rehearsal
Mirrored images
Mere backdrop
Mistaken
A shade for original
Vows wrongly taken
I saw you
Within a glass frame
You harboured
Parts of me
Dedication of the Heart
Faith of Oversoul
Destiny
Spun out of control
Wove stories
With light thread
Three ladies pray for the dead
As they weave all life
With them too
I conversed open
In shadows
Where they walked
Wyrd, Veroandi and Skuld
Weaving their blue webs
There are truths
Mingled with substance
Of deceit
Two-way test
Where your faith and mine are pressed
Alien outcomes
Morning star
King of all kingdoms
Unity
Within light
Two wrongs do not make a right
Following heartpath
Your candle
It ignites fires
Within realms
Of dreamtime
In between blue Space and Time
Where atoms reverse
We converse
Of dungeons and dragons’ lair
Of waters
Imploding
Of Humans with gills for air
Until waves recede
Second stage
Metamorphosis
Eye pleases
Mind teases
We retrieve the wings once lost
Glorious our flight
Into light
Winged blue white sparrow
I fly high
Into Time
Code Eternity in rhyme
Your gift of the word
The nectar
It dripped so slowly
Into throat
Into mind
They said the heatwaves could blind
As they scorched senses
Blue imprint
Of souls’ promises
I bear them
Heart tattoos
They remind me how to choose
From dreams and spirits
Lessons learnt
Rephrase intentions
I now know
Truly see
All begins and ends with you
