"Bright Blue Rose"

I 

 skimmed across 

blackwater

without once submerging

onto the banks of an urban

morning

that hungers the first Light

much much more

than the mountains ever do.

And she like the ghost beside

me

goes down with the ease of a

dolphin

and emerges unlearned,

unshamed,

unharmed.

For she is the perfect creature

a natural in every feature

and I am the geek with the

alchemist's stone 

For all of you who must discover

For all who seek to understand

For having left the path of others

You find a very special hand.

And it is a Holy thing

And it is a precious time,

And it is the only way.

Forget-me-nots among the

snow

Its always been and so it

goes

To ponder His death

And His life eternally.

One bright blue rose

outlives all those

two thousand years

and still it goes

to ponder His death 

and His life

Eternally.
