Is it Raining Where You Are?
Wings of fireflies raindown
then turn , into spinning arrows
of glass that stick to my lashes
as I look up to catch the flavors
of their colors.
See them pretend to be beautiful ?
I am beautiful
when left alone to be myself Everything about this world changes, all of the tarnished memories sit, magnified
under a clear dome.
Confused about their role
iin my life, they dsappear
Disappear like landlocked boats perched high on the desert floor waiting on the ocean to carry them to freedom
just as daydreams assist me
in my struggle to set aside
the harsh realities of life and love,
Love, do not replace it
with the shiney rearview mirror
leave it
Let me polish this world
the way I need to
Then
I will sleep in peace and wake each day with my head high as lillies do
then turn , into spinning arrows

of their colors.
