from the Earth

by Michele Schottelkorb

She calls to me

on the windwave of a dream

whistling through frozen memories

my calling realized

 

into the glen

my bare feet tread softly

whilst kaleidoscope eyes

guide a destined course

 

we are from the Earth

Sea, Sky and Stars

folding Essence gently

with the ebb and tide of being

 

oh, come to me

melt Deity with Human form

gaze upon the round of Luna

envelope the Night with an embrace

 

etch Phoenix flames upon Sol’s visage

see through emblazoned portals

arms raised to dayrays

soaking up Nature’s gift

 

from the Earth

we are Born; we Live; we Return

to the Summerland’s we frolic

until we are Reborn

This leaves me breathless....irridescent vapors trailing after the beauty of what you've written, like a fragrance lingering after the scroll down beyond the words. You transport me.

So soothing and beautiful. I love poems about nature and our relationship to it. Good work. It leaves me with a sense of belonging.

such subtle whisperings into the void. Such prayers to the ode god as have not been heard since times forlorn.

Great spiritualism throughout this Michele. Has a nice Wiken or even Native American feel to it.
