10 Stanzas to Unite Earth and Sky

12/20/2015

It Happens Sometimes | Poetry from the editor
Picture

​in a shrouded cave
without charm or luxury
lived a man alone
with a carved ash walking stick
and a magic bee garden
 
he communed with sky
while touching mother earth
where he earned free love 
tending the roots she offered
in their seasonal affair
 
this all pleased the man
his life was pure as honey
wildfire held well
and clung to the dancing wall
the old man's breath could wander
come a softer day
the earth had moved and changed him
the sky lit his scars
and the fire helped them burn
his brightly salve was silence
 
he sent questions up
in effort to understand
the reasons for this
newly frequent sensation
and harboured his mind to wait
 
after three full days
with exhaustion applying 
a desperate well 
the earth and sky unified
and fire did direct him
 
"go to the river
and bathe your scars attentively
your inner truth and
the current hold the answers
the current, she will heal you"
 
trust and suspicion
gnashing threads of barbed wire
thoughts filled his body
then charging with nothing else 
he plunged himself in to drown
 
the silt washed his pain
dissolving dry self-pity
the water harnessed
his spirit in its cool wake
and he started to listen
 
only then it stopped
with sharp echoed stillness and
the retreat of Fear
fine vibrations in his gut
gave way to her gentle voice
