Ah, She!


    Ah, She.  Most glorious Bright star,

       Shining outward her sinews of vaporous Sun’s light,

           Streams of ever spreading rivers.


    It is She who grants the kiss, who bursts 

       In white-orb bloom slowly, Soft mists of Making 

          Where the subtle prepares a bed for brighter rays to grow.


    But She, now she is lost, frozen in white snow,

       Peaceful pillow of sleeping vaporous light, which fell once

           In slow syrupy rain, a colony of waiting wombs..


    And in moments when the thaw pierces her 

       still beating heart, a great cry echoes over the vast throes of 

           her sorrowful ocean.  She, lost one still, in the snow.


    Who then will be her rousing one, to softly wake her

         With such yearning, within Golden arms of

             Un-yielding Light?

 

    Her Breath, sweet breath I have heard, heard it rushing

        Over the earth’s budding in secret delight, heard it rousing 

            The Shadows to dance with her bright and blossoming Wishes


    Perhaps it is her enticing whispering in frozen dreams,

        To escort her at last, dear shadows, to the cavernous realms

            Of Waiting’s Ballroom and Persephone’s rule.


    Or does She wait for the greatest of all

To Open her eyes with a burst of Passionate Urging 

     More powerful and far-reaching, more glorious and eternal, 

                 A kiss with a span un-knowable within these rushing webs,

                    These streaming waters and this white Snow.
