dancing at the wellsprings


can you dance when the days
are dismal
and darkness hovers over Earth
when somber music plays
temporal
and alters the giving of birth?

can you write in the sky...
rearrange
the stars or chit-chat with the moon...
hear the wind's bidding cry
or seek change
when songbirds whisper a new tune?

can you sprout healing wings
close your ears
to hate-filled words that sting and char...
hear the splash of wellsprings
calm your fears
and gain strength by touching the scar?
