a poet's song

behold your beauty shining in the sunlight
I see you covering yourself in shadows
so shy to speak
in the shaded afternoon, you are amazing

glorified emptiness it sits alone
you are part of the song all poets sing
a balm for the soul

elevated sadness your empathy sometimes stings
seeing you rise from the sorrow
with sympathy for others

in sync with the wave of feelings you encounter
no bad thoughts shall assail you
your strength is in your smile
laughter when fear comes upon you

nothing under the moonlit scape will harm you
you are a master of your domain
singing sweetly as you go along
and the earth understands

a child of the old language
before words were formed
space and all the planets
each sang with a different vibration

when thing get too heavy I tune in
to see what's really happening
usually we're all on the same wavlength
poetry an ancient blessing
