~feet rooted in epiphany~
  ~eyes riveted to her boughs~
  ~bated breath~
  ~senses tingling~
  ~spirits lifting~
  ~we are going~
  ~we are flying on the ground~
  ~stepping through clouds~
  ~your hand in mine & the next~
  ~& the next~

~The Heaven Tree~

  ~the night the Heaven Tree appeared~
  ~we were excited & enamored, ecstatic
  ~beneath its mantle of star leaves~
  ~lone wanderers o’er its earthen root~
  ~feet to path & spirits soaring~
  ~wildly alive in the ebon shade~
  ~the night was a prayer to kneel~

~the Heaven Tree whispered to us~
  ~secrets of the Children of the Universe~
  ~the storms and rainbows of their days~
  ~those before and after soon~
  ~our spirits were filled with light~
  ~timelessness, eternity~
  ~standing ‘neath the Heaven Tree~

~hands reaching, others holding~
  ~a circle of love on the ground~
  ~faith we were lifted~
  ~into the boughs of the Heaven Tree~~
  ~spirits kissed upon the lips of gods~
  ~eyes embracing the vast community of humankind~
  ~delivered of moment, gifted to be~
  ~on the path beneath the Heaven Tree~

~Eyes O’ Wonder/Line of Sight~

~these eyes have watched~
~the spring grass blowing~
~they have tossed~
~& turned the clouds of afternoon~
~into images of~
~summer on the way~
~we are passing~
~we are going~
~& the zephyr it is blowing~
~it is gentle~
~in the evening~

~these eyes have closed~
~with worry under lashes~
~they have spilled~
~their tears when laughing~
~there is nothing they can’t see~
~nothing we can’t do~
~when we’re ready~
~when we’re going~
~we are lying in the grass~
~we are angels on the ground~
~when we fall down laughing~

~these eyes have opened~
~they have wondered~
~the horizon~
~loved the eyes beside them~
~they have winked into the dawn~
~closed themselves away~
~found a path across the room~
~& gone walking~
~through the blowing blades of grass~
~to the only one they knew~
~would come to find them~
