Sparkle like crystal,
Fall like a wave
Crashing all over
The misty sea cave.
Fly like the raven,
Purr like a dove
Curling fur fingers,
Velveteen glove.
Turn like the time
And click to a key
Open all over
Whisper to me.
Fill up the world
Stepping and shy,
Doubting you’ll ever
Be able to fly.
Jump like a cricket
Spin, double samara—
Alighting again
Sweet, curving amphora.
Hold like a buttress,
Warm like the breeze
After summer dawning
Just over the trees.
Stay like a mountain,
Support—fine wire,
Attend me again
On the road of desire.
