Golden Light: My Home Was Like A Glancing, Golden-Light Ship When I Awoke

My Home Was Like A Glancing, Golden-Light Ship When I Awoke


My home was like a
glancing, golden-light ship
when I awoke,
from a nap today.

Sunlight danced dazzlingly
all around, and,
the temperature was perfect.

Sun illuminated
the wooden center beam,
like water lapping
against the keel
of a craft,
kissing the prow's
sunlit waterline.

And I delighted
in this light ~
no warm water nigh.

My house, a light craft
on a ridge,
in the afternoon,
in Canyon,
California,
bearing gene goods,
was sailing
through time,
and space,
amid dancing light.
