sky dances

sky is a dancing watercolor
sunset rages
lightning fires at peak's vision
shuffling child voice
a solitary heart beat

roaring engines hum
colors spread wings
on leaves

wok liquid
solidifies paste
she stands silent
brown eyes burning fire

balancing desire with
hopeful acceptance

hard lessons - cricket sings

loose capsules
roll across deserts filled with
summer's fleeting face of light

no shadows
remain to guide grave seekers home

they roiled, roared and rioted
silence
forming new watercolors
creasing sky mind
with light
