flower heart
the flowers reach up and I reach for them
the fluttering of my heart breaks on the pomegranate seeds
hitting the floor, my flower heart breaks with sadness
I'm a receptacle for forest creatures
I am part of the ocean, the sky, the unbridled dark forests.
I am a child of moonlight.
I am but a moment and a memory of a galaxy.
I am everywhere and nowhere at the same time.
you can feel my presence in the babble of a waterfall hidden in the wild jungle, in a storm in the middle of a cornfield.
my home in every twinkle of light and the singing of tits.
About this poem
Maybe I am a brook or a flower in a meadow, or maybe I am a noisy waterfall in the middle of a jungle. Sometimes I'm a woman. Sometimes I think I'm becoming a man. But most of the time I am something else
