Imagine Skies..... Poem by RIC BASTASA

understand the happiness
of the wasp

or the bee when each
leaves a sting

dream of the skies
or heaven

imagine a rain of
honey

sweet to your fingers
as you say

this is licking good
so so licking good!

understand the fragility
of butterflies
for they live only for a day

when they flutter
leave them landing on
the comfort of your
hair

dream dream of the
heavens and the skies

imagine a day when
sunshine rains the softness
of the skin
of the woman's hands

nature earth
drinking the waters of
the heavens

all rifts filled
all crevices close
all those seed
sprouting
in between the legs
of trees
