Flitting is generally
for butterflies
brilliant flowers
with powdered wing
or jewel throated hummingbirds
winging on with joyous speed
But now and again
my heart has been known
to flit among the sacred
and shine brilliantly colorful
with ecstasy
a pebble in the shallow water
enough to fill to overflow
a drop of magic elixir
the basis of life in physical form
nature’s alchemical formula
with a pebble for your thoughts
you anoint your future, your days…
a string of golden beads
from the past of black and white
may you know your golden nature
may you lead a golden life
His dreams were big
Profuse visions
Filled with joy and glory
expanding into consciousness sublime

As if on cue, his foot stepped out
with determination and faith
Though his eyes perceived
but a thin rope on which to tread
Thus, he boarded
the escalator to potential
