Invitation

 
Long hooded days
cape enshrouded skies
gone your blue ice jewels
snow mounted
glinting
rare as diamonds

Exorcist of sunless days
come tread my cabin trail
leave your blue transparent prints
from sky to my cabin door

bring your brass-bound
lantern in your slender hand
like before
upon my rough-hewn floor
cast circle shadows dancing
ages ancient to our present time

in tranquility we’ll watch
converse
while overhead
vast waves of clouds
break slowly
on an azure shore.
