Web Of Life

 

I don't do a quiet tea ceremony

to access the ineffable.

i sit like a wolf before a sunset

-hardly comprehending.

 

I think of fireflies:

evolutionary pressures that formed them

Well married to the thrill

They arouse in us humans

......and a strand of the web becomes

visible for a second!

 

- Awareness of complexities,

Each and every moment

Proposing to joy -

 

* * *

 

....Though this proposal will be turned

down today:

- I would shatter like a light bulb

With too high a voltage  -

 

Keep these avowals of love coming....

Oh, my Friend and Lover....

Til my green mind has ripened

...Until I come of age.
