I usually don't pick the wildflowers
The old man of the mountain all dance
Golden; glowing about the rhythm of Her gusts
The sun's love reflecting back down to the valley below
Easter eggs high on a ridge
Reflected by Her three mirrors
I usually don't pick the wildflowers
Until one old man on the mountain called
They're all gifts
But this one I plucked
And I held it
I brought the old man of the mountain to the river below
Closer to waters he'd once known
For if Her and all Her magic
Magnetic molecules
Were to pass me by
Celestial
Golden, as the sun-drenched ridge
Timelessness
A passing glance stopped me in place
Her warm smile, a loving embrace
The blossom in Her hair was raised
No words, I look down
Unworthy of the light of the Goddesses that emanate from Her 3 mirrors
The intensity of Her Gaia smile overwhelms
My eyes are simply insufficient
She teaches me
With the wisdom of the old man on the mountain
Restorative
As if I had been chosen, because
I don't usually pick the wildflowers
For by proximity alone we behold their powers
I don't usually pick the wildflowers
Except for one, once
Lost in the reflection
Of Her three mirrors
