Nature’s Natural Elixir
Nature's Calm
I bathe in the flow of water and rain
Dance barefoot in shadows
Flourish free-rage
‘neath the life-giving shimmers
That fall from dark
Clouds
Spying the silvers
Of their lining
Dampening
Dry ground.
I taste life’s particles
See them in the air
I take in each breath
And imbibe them
With flare.
I know the cycles
Of life and death
How elements gather
I know their effect
Their endurance
To cycle in
Synchronicity
Unchecked.
I welcome the storm
Crossing great seas
Tossing and turning
The sand
And trees.
Palm frond’s bend
Backwards and hold
Tight to their fruit
Rivers carve new
Paths in embankments
Swollen creeks rush
Through reeds
Cross pads
Over puddles.
I know the lore of
Gardens and witch
The saplings that reach
For my fingers and
Tips, flowers and
Wisp’s.
Green lies the leaf
Crossing my palm
Natures currency
So often ignored
And even when it
Shrivels and shrinks
The leaf leaves
No scar
Just a hint
Of its passing.
Star dust is my magic
Moonlight my power
My sun warms my heart
And awakens dawns
Influence over me
Its perfect harmony
To empower.
I’m a collagist
Of alchemy’s
Elixirs
A seer with sight
I dowse the
Smokey crystal’s
Dimensions
With astrological
Intentions.
Nature is the pillow
Where I lay my head
Her song is intoxicating
Soothing tensions both
Mild and intense
She is the calm
That cradles
My life
In her arms.
Natures peace
Her capacity
To love
A forgiveness
So sweet
And comfort
Beneath
Like above
Holds me in
Her choice
Of my continued
Existence
And her affection
To share
Her calm
With me.
