queen of the moss knows how to summon time ... #NaPoWriMo2018 Day 7



the wife and wide grin 
of the prince 
of daffodils 
says say the words 
what do they smell of 
elapsed time 
something completed 
event horizon reasons 
for eating saucily 
spaghetti without utensils 

memories, all 
baby pictures again 
the grainy kodak stamped 
thick paper back photos 
we received a few weeks after  
dropping them off 
at the pharmacy 

there is a moment 
in our lives 
where we wear 
for the first time 
the drapes of mortality 
and though I suppose 
we're all old somewhere 
odd jazz wobble math, dream walkers 
fire tenders, callers of clouds to ocean 
eaters of mountains 
soft sensuous silt crawlers 
trawlers for dawn 
we are 
mostly all 
low tiding 
the mist 
for amphibians 
and yet to bees 
laughter 
as always 
haunts 
time and wind 
especially in the cycles 
of the trees 
and this bliss 
a happy accident 
a choicing 
of chance 
wanting 
to know 
comic relief 
winged prayer belief 
when the words turn 
to mind becoming hungry mouths 
a poem 
voices 
our necessary 
sometimes
