we be
-lieve in them, of course
as we have seen them with
our own eyes.
their embered breath,
spiking the sky.
their spangled skin,
tangled in scars.
imagine
our delight to find
they’re on our side,
joining our nightly fire
-dance, and teaching
us
to
fly.

I love this so much!
Thank you so much, Sherry. 🙂 Always so happy to get a visit from you.
“spiking the sky” … This makes me think of the sky as a bowl of sorbet punch at prom. 🙂
“Imagine …” is the new middle school buzz word. I’d explain the usage and function, but it wouldn’t come across nearly as fun(ny) as it is.
Do tell! 🙂
