Swept Away

Sweep into my room on feathered broom

and liquid silk that trails a million stars behind

Fly high into my sky where you and I

will know the colours of our minds

Play into my day with notes that take my breath away

Come love and find

a place beneath, beyond and through

an exhalation breathed anew

the power to push our explorations wide

On soaring feet we’ll dance and leap and meet

beyond the blindness that would bind

Where is that brush whose plummaged rush

and trailing silken threads of multi-hue

will lead and clear, restore from fear

create the true

I’m paused on noise, await with poise

the galaxies and other worlds you’ll take me to

I breathe the day

and practise sweeping come what may
