Greater Universe

Gift Poem for all Poets

Naked in the universe

A soul bared upon a loom

Woven among the stars

yet lost in a little room

The heavens if you mind

The oceans if you don't

Space is the center of time

and a place we cannot own

Sojourn lightly, sure-footed

as the stars dance within

a spirit city densely wooded

where dreamers' paths begin

The skies reflect the beauty

of a greater universe in you

Can you hear your own heart echo

answers you always knew?

The search is over when the pen

meets the page at morning light

What wisdom whispers there and then

Never be afraid to write
