Waterfall

Through dark quietude, soft, serpentine
Sequins and sequences approach the precipice
Ice to liquid - shining hearts!
Everlasting angels - light and dark
Gather on the surface - silent seraphim
Till unexpected, they begin...

...Then rubies
And emeralds
And rainbows
And pearls
And diamonds and tears and starlight hurled
At wheels within wheels within worlds within worlds
Ripples, ripples, ringlets, curls
Roll, roll, little pearls
Saturn rings, orbit free
Black-hole vortices
From the sea, to the sea
Tumbling to infinity
Day
Night
Morn
Noon
Gold
Silver
Sun
Moon
All alive is all aloud
Chaos of a circus crowd
What dizzy imagination spirals, magical, out of control
Falling, arcing, splashing, sparking
Giggling, singing, dancing, laughing
Like a warehouse in a dream
Full of all I've ever seen
And eighty-eight piano keys...
A kiss!
Quick! Bliss!
Don't Miss!
A silver fish? Or just a twist
Of a blue ribbon, a silk thread, a fairytale, or fantasy
Tears shine, like a sweet Galilean mystery
And Decembers made of silver, and gold Junes
And cappuccino midnights, and milk moons
Invisible spoons, in chocolate lagoons
As halos, below
Tremble, through scattered snow, and lo
A whole ocean in the sky
Rushes by
While tears tumble, jumble, thunder
From above
Out of heaven
Like Love.
