In reed I renewed myself

In reed I renewed myself

13-14 April 2015

 

 

The sun waved to clouds

That tremulous followed it

Between rays and blues

Shades of hope and fear washed me

With oncoming deliverance

 

Banyan trees reached out

Strong wooden arms lifted up

Inviting fibres

Connected synapses rushed

With memories of a lifetime

 

The ocean stretched out

Its salty water drenched all

With crusts of white foam

As memories flowed silver

All golden thoughts ebbed away

 

Imperial pine trees

Glanced down on reeds that flew light

Silken, unbroken

In reed I renewed myself

And the sun kissed my lashes
