Of words bereft of thought
Till the blazing March sun
Beat history's scraggly stones
A midsummer celebration
Ensued with images galore
Beauty returned from the hills.

For sunrise and flowers
I look pain in the face.
I wake up bleary-eyed
Trying to catch beach suns
Before they turn white.

It is this luminosity, my dear,
Of the gilded leaves in the sun
The magic eye promptly catches
A silver flicker, a yellow transience.
A palliative to the chemical pain
In variously knotted entrails and
The reddish tinge in eye-whites.

A lone flamingo shrieks in its sleep
Causing ripples in the night's stillness .

Clusters of acacias that had grown
Waterless under the skin of the earth
Spread their ghostly hair evenly
In the rainless , blazing August sky.

With its thick tongue in fever.

The tree waited in the dark
Studded with white pearls
Of sleeping flamingos.

Dark liquid clouds
Coagulated around the moon
Drawing a nebulous circle
Presaging silver rain .
