Poem-"Amber"

[psycosynthesis]

Fragmentory gestures
Fossilsed like insects
Dancing in amber.
A smile glints
Off polished stone
Struck by the sun,
And streams, screams
Towards eyes not
Prepared for such
Brilliance. Radiance
Dampens and hides
Cracks, tiny ravines
In your facets:
A paradox of fragiltiy
And power. I wonder
If you could be cut
By another brilliant,
Radiant stone.
If you could be shaped
And bartered for,
Worn on idle and
Worn out hands.

Wow... there's some deft, rich imagery at work here.

I wonder
If you could be cut
By another brilliant,
Radiant stone.
If you could be shaped
And bartered for,
Worn on idle and
Worn out hands.

Incredible.
