The Swan - 28th April ‘Well Versed’
I sit entranced
A thing of both energy and calm
What a lovely cloudy day.
I have been walking up the stream on rocks and witnessing the wind roiling over a bed of
rushes.
A Crystal clear emerald pond greeted me and my body greeted it in a crescendo of
goosebumps.
We become two lovers
surrendered to the dance.
Meeting each others’ heart’s longings
Delicate
Tender
Floating
Lilypads wrap our hearts in music.
There is such joy in experiencing our shared nature.
I Soaring on the breeze.
What a journey.
Now it is time to say goodbye, a peaceful departure,
as the water flows downstream.
I stand,
Drifting home across fields in the fading light of sunset
Whether or not I am seen, beauty shines through me.
