another one

where are you?

are you amongst the twighlight
hiding under flower petal
watching raindrops walking in the leaves?

are you resting amongst a sigh
perched upon the breath
of a lonely widow?

are you sleeping in a cocoon
with closed eyelash and warm threads
comforting your awakening today?

are you sparkling again
in a blanketed tear
inspiring love and tenderness?

are you chaperoning the pandas
awaiting their fall with open arms,
clean water and stories?

are you in the company of orphans
in search of a home, with an open ear
and sympathy?

are you in a box of crayons
or a brush, suggesting the colors,
bending strokes, easing confusion?

are you alone on the rooftop
pretending to converse with moon
so that it has a companion tonight?

My favorite work by you yet. Stunningly complex, yet elegantly simple; like life itself. You inspire me to reach deeper and spill myself into my words. Thank you.
