STONE POEMS ~ CREATURE

CREATURE
( sterling silver, red coral, blue jade, lava stone, hypersinth, vintage wood beads (c 1970s)

Living in me

inspiring different thoughts

twisty channels of nurturing

and spear carrying craziness

an eye forged in a fire pit

                             turns interlopers

and thwarts wack downers.

my body laughs

bringing happy messengers

to sit at my table

their faces lit with stories

MERMAID

Beneath the bark of trees and urgent waters,

she lives another life–of bravery and quiet;

of secret footless freedom

STONE POEMS ~ ELEPHANT

ELEPHANT
(sterling silver, African turquoise, yellow turquoise, cracked agate, new fire jade)

The beauty of creation is in elephants.

They walk together slowly, surely, with wrinkled knees
and ears like butterfly wings—a majestic force of grey.

They are the path makers
clearing their way to a higher purpose while their young play close-by
ever in view of the great family eye.

They rage when they rage,
They mourn when they mourn—
Beware the rampage when their trunks lift—and sound—like a horn!

And they dance in the moonlight when a new one is born.

They are questers for water and vessels for wisdom,
And the beauty of creation is so evident in them.
