Emerald Shimmers This Body

“…and as kind as summer.”
—The Hobbit, J.R.R. Tolkien
 
Adrift in a morn
of blooming blue,
I find myself held
 
weightless 
 
by this 
green body 
who knows
mine for 
its own.
 
Cradling 
edges I hadn’t
perceived 
wanting.
 
Honey sips on lips
hungry for the sweet of 
this slake. Its balm. 
Like no other.
 
Born in these flows 
at least 12,000 years ago, 
I surface new borne with each stroke 
of hand, foot. Genius, this kettle 
of ancient seminal ice
gifted by glaciers
on their leave.
 
A fringe of woodland 
untouched in recent times by 
the over reach of civilization—dubbed 
thus by a lens shot too full of its own
dust—graces the swell of belly to
all manner of pilgrim seeking
as I a respite from the hard
baked land of pilgrimage.
 
Nearly brimmed moon 
touching my natal sun 
as the cosmos plays 
with light far
far beyond.
 
Her breath is mine,
this goddess, this catchment
of wild earth so plenished with life,
gulping currents part selkie, part
child who know to breathe 
fluent food.
 
Now narwal, now porpoise,
now supplicant, I
twirl her teals  
with nary 
a care 
in the
wide
whole
world.
 
For I, like those
subsumed by
its treasure 
before,
those transcending
a world lost in matter,
putting words to walks,
heroes living journey,
have paradise
for a pool.
 
What strange
good fortune to 
live so near such 
sacred shores,
clear depths a 
crystalline ball
into which 
I find 
 
home.
 
My bounty lies 
not in the bank, 
but the banks.
 
“Heaven is under
our feet as well as
over our heads.”
—Henry David Thoreau, Walden
