Akamai smiles

Thursday, January 8th, 2009

swaying, dancing
in silence
music streaming
from her soul
graceful, hardy
she is more

Akamai smiles

like blue green waves,
rising tall -
falling, breaking
unmindful
of hot white sands
underfoot

Listen to the Fire

Monday, January 5th, 2009

Listen to the Fire

as it crackles and it burns
away the night; the cold air
slipping past wistfulness on a dare
billowing in smoke, still yearns
for the illusive light of dawn

hear the silence; make it yours
alone, before the cicadas start
their own chorus and your heart
chases it, straight out the doors
bowing in defeat to a yawn

Yldara/M. Stanphill
