a flash poem inspired by my We Shall Dance With Mountains friends. Amazing photo by Joe Milmoe…
Together
distant galaxies
being born
an opening hand
stretching across
the womb of space
touch the darkness
with spinning fingers
new fingertips encountering
creator being created
breathe in the heavy water
here on the sea floor
expel star dust
wiggle new toes
we dance apart
as light within the dark
as dark we soothe
stitching parts
back together
discover within ourselves
