Migrant Dreaming


i glide into the sunburnt country
like a delicate little snowflake
on a mission to discover the luminous landscape
of life in the pivotal moment of creation

with the flame of destiny in my soul
i find stability in the midst of chaos as love whispers in my ear
i dance like the gentle wind
in the golden light of dawn; holding up the sky

and like the Martian in fancy clothing
made of light that never fades
i take the citadel of dreaming by storm
yearning for your gentle touch under the rose petals

the fragrance of your passion
overwhelms me in the moist hour as i explore
the pulsing heart of Oz; searching for you
in the deepest waters of my longing

like the restless love particle under the antipodean sun
i come through the window without walls bathed in your glory
finding the inner beauty of your essence
the living drop of nectar divine
