From Ancient Deep

 FROM ANCIENT DEEP

Impure glow in the cindered blue,

expanding over an orphaned two.

Moving moment dark with dawn,

fields and forest drenched in dew.

Sterling facets, sainted forms;

arctic animalia warms.

From ancient deep the dream is drawn,

downy soft in the turning storm.

Pearl the wonder, flame endowed,

she the moon and he the cloud.

Palms enfold the fragile fawn,

for wandering the end avowed.
