///FIREFLY///

a deafening peace

so still & silent

a powerful piece

of wind, invisible

a visible sun

setting rainbow up-rays

raising sunsets that set the hills ablaze

blazing gypsy-eyed fires

a sound like a pop, an explosion

to bright night horizons by orange moon

with a rising trail lifting us along

raising uplifting vibrations

orange to yellow to white so bright

we slumbered to rise

re-energized to wake third eyes

sunlove yoga toward a mirrored roof

double rainbow showers

beneath the desert sun, aloof

cacti hearts in a waterless beach

& all within reach

with a sandstorm stirring the tallest shadows

thought it'd take us down

but particle pirouettes of earthen love

brought us together

even in the driest weather

hot rocks, no socks, no shade

dehydrated, elated

against a midnight wall

in the middle of the day

spirit animals on grand display

betwixt rocks, lazing

staring at the sun

lying in the sand

a flower in & on my hand

on earth we land

in patterns we stand

a strange land

with a kiss kiss band

sighing long distance love

lyrical listening figuring out the meanings

everyone’s speaking to me

i know now, i get it

ima tree

with little wings i soar

toward the moon, our mother

nature, our home

& vibrations our being

at peace & in tune

geometrical sight with spiritual might

journeying through to the light

ra, the light giver

we are lightmakers

midnight wakers

the moon guiding us through the dark

showing us every star

entire constellations in complex tessellations

a real life dream

it came true

floor shuffling formations

footage taping, shaping

alien hippie gypsies

time traveling to the sixties

fire dancing with spectrum reflections

intersections with

surreal serene scenery

seen by starry sunny souls

cosmic till infinity

in the cosmos, eternally

psychedelic moonswings

with saturnian rings around my fingers

lingering hugs from earth tones

the vibrations & me alone

head buzzing from the lights

sight filled with sprouting heights

everything vibrating in patterns so perfect

our patience, was worth it

children of the desert

daughters of the sun

friends of the rocks

& lovers of the moon

circling high with the stars

not reaching for, cos we’re among

a fresh cycle, begun

as the new moon bows

eclipsing the then with the now

the sky opened my mind

& my mind opened to the skies

we'll keep that fire alive

forever, we'll keep that fire alive
