Kissing the Turtle

in the crush
of frozen waterfalls
a crash of
waves a wash of sighs drowning in the

honey ocean bubbling in the
sugar sea
in the forest
of the sphinx an island breeze in

the trees of moonlight singing with the crying
doves siren bells &

crystal shells
dancing in the nest of
swans fingering frost

& spangled ice tracing
lace with dolphin grace
kissing jewels in pools of stars
whistling in the cave of ghosts cloaked in
lilypetal masks painting flowers
wreathed in showers

of bright gardens
lost in fountains of
the night
