Description As Her tides wash over me
        -Neurons, atoms, ribosomes, time-
  I’m washed by tales and rhythms.
  
I become - child of Her imagination-
       a creature worthy of Her wise glances.
Creates the Bud on the stalk of my own experiences.
        The Bud draws nourishment from its stalk.

Her Songs, Her chorus - seeking, healing-
        dwarf our colony of thought,
  Create within our lives as Sailors,
Breathed by what She’s wrought.

Solving riddles - skies and souls -
Travelers - wise, and dead,
   Weave Her justice – filtering our eyes -
  As the fiddler may filter dread.

Her children swim the bays of Time,
         and the walrus swims dimensions.
The web of a tarantula , She maintains
           And Man, the Earth’s intention.

We, the atoms of Her Grace,
       Come to pass as winds,
  And come to travel, as we find -
                  what She breathes, we remain.

The first and second stanzas of this are very clever. I'm surprised there are so few comments on these poems yet; they're very rich and thoughtfull wanderings.

"and the walrus swims dimensions" is a particularly striking line... perhaps it could have been modified into a haunting refrain.

I honestly hardly ever look at or comment on poetry on this site, because at the risk of sounding pretentious, this IS deviantart and it IS full of angsty kindomhearts / emo fangirls with huge bags of soggy rotten emo poetry. I can't expect other people to look through the rest of the crap for the sake of my own work.

I wrote these in a time when I was exploring the strands that surround the core.
