A leaf holds a single drop of dew
Morning contained in its reflection
With a forest of change
To focus the lens of time
Dew drops like magic orbs
Rise as the sun warms the trees
Slowly evaporating into the light
To nourish the air
One single moment melts into another
Linking the passage of time into eternity
While the focus continually shifts
To discover the source of dreams

The shallow depressions
Carved by the pull and crash
Of the ocean’s constant tides
Sparkle with the tears
That luminesce in the moonlight
Is it simply the waters of life
Salt to flavor the inexorable change
Or the mystery of ebb and flow
That balances out the breath
Of an expanding palette of stars?
Connection in the space of loss
Renews the heart’s knowledge
Of unfailing Divine Love
Gathering up the shells and stones
Washed ashore in Poseidon’s wake
