Softening their intelligence
transparent as water and air
they meander through the maps of their minds
unraveling the edges of illusion
~
Circumnavigating the solid grid of references
they walk deftly under the ladders of hierarchy
The flight of their passions
entertaining the complexities of insight
~
Their cadence syncopated
by raindrops and bird calls
they resonate as bells ringing
weathering the storms of vulnerability
~
Each of their words
the flesh of their hearts
their ageless spirits
carry loss as kites in the wind
~
While planting bright seeds
in fecund dust
where some may grow
under the radar
~

This was an emotional roller-coaster ride for me Jana, through mazes and waterfalls. I keep reading the last two verses, pure gems. And oh yes, “bright seeds” please, please “grow under the radar”…

armed with tuning fork and shovel, this song comes to mind John…
“To everything, turn, turn, turn.
There is a season, turn, turn, turn.
And a time to every purpose under heaven.
A time to build up, a time to break down.
A time to dance, a time to mourn.
A time to cast away stones.
A time to gather stones together.”
