HOW MY MOTHER'S VOICE LIVES FOREVER

Poetry waits to be embraced 
by voice and listeners.
Each word lives 
and reproduces in another's being..

Poetry's light dances 
in echoes up our hope mountains
to star everyone's night.

Poetry is a country of song
where the only arms
are round others' shoulders
in mutual trust.
It is the steadying shoulder 
for freed tears and kisses.

It moves hands to make 
tools out of love,
food out of earth's sensuality,
and to play music to feed love.

With the power 
of two hearts always
people clap each other,
using the other's hand and
simultaneously lifting each other.
They willingly climb the trees
in the leaves of others' hands
to read the love of understanding,
Poetry  dances forests 
of true democracy.

Poetry paints invisible hope
with the brush of voice feeling.
It feeds the illiterate child
with literature of all memories -
to foresee and wisely cocreate..
It relives history and herstory,
to birth the children's future.
It bonds generations
with new freed songs of laughter.

Poetry roams and  nurtures 
each country's
quilted fields 
of dreams.
It is the Greater Vehicle 
[Mahayana] 
of compassion's
vow to transport hearts,
across all frontier waves of heartship.

Poetry is the inner voice 
of breathe's life
one on one to infinity
of even but one Word kept
throbbing always,
for others..

"Making the Wind Dance"

You are one of so many flowers.
But if you should die,
so would I.
Such is it to have felt the touch
of tender Lifethus made eternal.
