quick sketch of the earthbound mystic
how do i thank you
lover of worlds unseen?
not in the gold that
dazzles the pretentious,
but in clytie's gold petals,
i thank you.
not in the palaces that
placate the pompous,
but in aurai's wings,
i thank you.
not in the diamonds that
weigh down the fingers of queens,
but in asteria's sky gems,
i thank you.
you lover of earth and of wind and of sky,
i thank you in flowers and breezes and stars,
for that is your worth.
you tamer of passions,
you wrangler of pride,
you priestess of unvarnished truth,
i thank you.
you conundrum of love,
your heart has picked well,
for your name is worthy of love
yet your sign is love unrequited -
your gift has set you free.
