Heaven and Earth
Radiant on his throne of golden light,
eyes cast down upon the Earth far below
nothing concealed from his blazing sight,
his beauty cast within fire’s warm glow,
from his gilded sphere sweet music will flow,
he rules the kingdom of the higher mind,
from dawns fingers the intellect will grow,
hidden wisdom he inspires man to find,
a blaze of his lips awakens delight
in a kiss of flame burning pure and bright.
Two bound souls locked in an eternal fight,
arrow of fire match the silver bow,
cast in darkness shedding ethereal light
and imperfections without mercy show,
his illumination suffers the blow,
to what the light hides darkness is not blind,
upon the owl’s wing her justice takes flight,
their hearts and souls with fate ever entwined,
now her crescent ascends into the night,
luminescent in her gown flowing white.
The guardian of woman’s scared rite,
with the taste of vengeance her eyes aglow
and her fury inspires soulful fright,
at her hand death promised will not come slow,
still from her emerges a tender flow,
to the old groves she weaves her scared bind,
among Hawthorne blossoms love can ignite,
a glimpse may be spared for the golden Hind
and the laughter heard of the dancing sprite
in her own garden of Earthly delight.
