As day breaks

my rooted bits

entwining in holy sanctuaries, below

mirror my shadowed dancing, above

~

 in dreaming, I dream

 my shadows are empty light

waiting for day

grateful for the flesh of sun

the skin of shine

the eyes and ears of salty water

~

lo,

I cry,  I cry, 

I cry, cry, cry

I am a crow turned song bird

calling the infinite

~
