Layered Fragments, Becoming Whole

• •

Time capsule

Like a cloudless summer sky,

With a crystalized brightness at the core,

Your baby blues,

Hold me in place.

Mirth bubbling just beneath,

Spilling over into the space in between,

And I watch it spill with

delight…

Another view – stoic focus – the curtain falls,

Shifting almost instantaneously,

To the color of lake water after heavy rain.  

The brightness recedes,

Kerosene lamp going inward.

Where are you?

As I bear witness to another island universe,

Transversing time and space.

Oh it’s beautiful
