SUNRISE SHIMMER

be soft as mist
in this bright day,
tender soles
easy on the path
and blue eyes
full of sun and sky
and all this
mundane beauty
caressed
by light and dew

be only eye and ear,
nose and skin,
in and of these moments
when dawn's alchemy
turns the earth to silver
and leaves to
precious stone

move easy as wind
through riches
that shimmer
in every god's eye,
and in your own
