lizards in freshly tilled earth (20170602)

Posted on June 2, 2017June 2, 2017 by crow

i become a slight movement in the earth
a ripple through fecund soil
crawl with my belly against a warming mother
so warm i hear my pores open
welcoming the sunlight like a friend
long-forgotten

  Hey, Betty,
  
  Thanks for saying so. I’m glad it spoke to you.

    I became the lizard. Both sensually and visually. Magic poem!

    Just don’t eat the bugs.

    Glad you told me in time…. (crawling off to look for some chocolate….)

Great. Cold blooded creatures embrace the dark but need light, too.
