NIGHT MUSE

"What did you see in the middle of the night?"
an underwater muse bubbled with delight.

"Follow the willowisp."
She said, swimming a dream stream.

Catching the twinkle tail
of a maze dazed whale,

I rode the charmed currents with my large friend.
Finding the way out in the end...

Or was it... the way in?

  1. It is difficult to comment on words and meanings that are already so perfectly said. Clearly spoken from a personal truth, in so few words, you have given such a clear illustration in such an elegant manner. A pleasure to read again and again.
