(teary-eyed hugs) It's so wonderful to be back here on these robin egg blue pages after a long hiatus! I've indeed been through quite a lot since where I left off here, but I'm pleased as punch to declare that I've re-emerged from the debris of months past as gladdened and light-hearted as ever!

The following is the first-ever love song that I've written for a specific, special someone who I've met face to face. She has been a great friend of mine over these past three and a half years, and is a dakini (Sanskrit for "sky dancer"). So this is a love song to my sky dancer! )

Your Sky Is My Diary
By: Noah Eaton
1/11/13

You’re as fast,
as a flash of genuine faith,
with eyes that glisten,
running thicker than a lake,
hues of ancient promise,
illumine from your breath,
immolating all the maps,
of my body imprest…

You open doors,
of maturing mysteries,
and drown my lips,
with austerities,
trembling with joy,
as I feel my spirit,
carried away,
by your enervating wind…

(Ooooohhh ooooohhh,
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh!)
Your mirth is like lightning,
in my mind’s eye!
(Ooooohhh ooooohhh,
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh!)
Only from our hearts,
can we dance the sky!

You step swanlike,
anointed with pearly mist,
khanjana bird avowals,
pour from betelnut-reddened lips,
you slow dance with me,
on the lip of oblivion,
before we impale the sky,
and together dive deeply therein.

(Ooooohhh ooooohhh,
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh!)
Your mirth is like lightning,
in my mind’s eye!
(Ooooohhh ooooohhh,
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh!)
Only from our hearts,
can we dance the sky!

Like a black bee lost,
in a murmuring blue lotus,
my blood breaks for you,
dissolving in your solstice,
my body and soul,
is your mirror,
just as your sky,
is my diary…..

(Ooooohhh ooooohhh,
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh!)
Your mirth is like lightning,
in my mind’s eye!
(Ooooohhh ooooohhh,
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh!)
Only from our hearts,
can we dance the sky!

(Ooooohhh ooooohhh,
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh!)
Your mirth is like lightning,
in my mind’s eye!
(Ooooohhh ooooohhh,
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh!)
Only from our hearts,
can we dance the sky!
