Noon Upon Mountain High Sun She awaits the shadows in light. On high points of a long ago Volcanic thrust, Long past the cool down, Now, where Primrose ring the eye line Lending effusive color, highlighting Gentian in wave of noon winds, As delphinium beg to be garlanded Into crowns. She is alone, awaiting the shadows. Her fingers ply stems into braiding Thoughts as elusive as dreams, Playing catch as catch can And come home to me Here, in the sunlight. Zenith is the High point in time and noon is the low point For shadows, sitting beneath her As they are, so close, and yet So far. What grasses yet to seed are fragrant In warm glow, what moisture from Dry dew still kissing air among The winds, and far away colors fading In haze of day. Waiting shadows in light, she is, Counting styles within her book, Noting particular vernacular that trips Over her tongue As she speaks to windy grasses, Who sing back to her In Beethoven time As by blood coursing, meter pounds Her life alive, while she awaits The shadows. There. It starts to slip now, toward the western range. In some short hours she will shiver Eve into her arms Caressing starlight with her eyes And fall into the sigh of shadows Gathering in to take her Up, again. She counts wild poppies, and Slips again into her smile. |

As you SeeHearFeelKnowUndeniably no place far thy cry woe joy goes unheard no distance so far all that is fails illuminating smile tear awe your eyes sing and always from there on high waiting leading pulling thundering each magic moment nigh lifting high higher till clouds reach down kiss pon thy cheek forever glow to shine awakening all life to sight to light Where rainbow touches earth gentlest |
