    has anybody ever told you

    that your eyes look like ocean at sundown

    deep dark
    unavoidable

    immense clear mirror of overarching heavens
    and all that swirls beneath
    flux with ripples and undulations
    responsive to every disturbance
    reflecting scattering creating
    light of the passing stars

    has anybody ever told you
    that your hair resembles a river
    smooth and gentle
    gleaming in borrowed sunlight
    parting suddenly and unexpectedly
    into soft twin streams
    of calm concealing
    eternal turbulence
    framing miraculous
    islet of diamond and
    ruby, of rhinestone
    and tulip of lavender
    and forget- -me-nots rich
    meadows hiding from the rainbow
    chosen treasures of earth and of
    heaven of nature and of human art
    symphonies as fervent as sunlight within
    momentous in scope limitless in intensity
    until it vanishes in separate gorgeous currents
    over your white sand shoulders

    .................................................................

    HAS ANYBODY EVER TOLD YOU
    that you are water personified
    the basis of all life on earth
    substance and sustenance of existence
    defining and guiding the future
    of earth and humanity - - -

    ubiquitous and enigmatic
    radiant and multifaceted
    transparent and thoroughly indispensable

    *************
    * blissful *
    * vibrant *
    * fickle *
    * clear *
    ****************** M I R A G E

    to a dessicated traveler
    plodding
    aimlessly
    across this boundless desert
    ................................................................................
