• by the water

    when faith is wax a primal
    sheen,
    upon the text of nevertheless
    taken too extreme
    bask in the cast of cold moon beams
    walk on water
    first sins washed away
    we were young
    innocent the nubile babe
    in her mothers crescent arms
    soft cheek hands feet beside the deep creek
    where sun and moon spin sleek and cool
    to sound their round physiques
    to lift
    daylight to nestle in nests made from
    nettle petal twig stem leave mud clay
    every being should have her day
    the sun returns to rise
    walk with me by the water take my hand
    bring us peace.

    Amen.
