moment by moment, layer by layer,
memories condense onto the berg of time;
these pure crystals of our presence,
distilled into the hazy green...
such is our ethereal existence, for we are but vapour
among stars,  a whiff a consciousness
flickering for a brief moment on the stage
of our benevolent cosmic progenitors

but even they, for all their terrible power
and fiery hearts, have found a delicate
balance; even they, these lumbering giants,
have found a peace in their fragile
co-existence...
so that WE may BE....

so why can’t we?

or is death truly the price
of consciousness...

it's a delicate balance
in the dance of life and death
we are but a moment of pirouette

Life and death,
to love or not to love...
the answer..is yes.

Your vapour is quite profound. Stars

I am truly enjoying your poetry  *smiling*

a special way you have with words.  

live for today,
dream of the future,
and learn eternal truths from the past..
