Vapor and Serendipity
One day of poetic inspiration in the Temecula mountains
Rise, rise!
Dissipate among the hills
Like tranquil ghosts.
Accumulate on fresh buds
Into droplets of serendipity.
Quiver and cast
Upside-down reflections;
Sacred liquidity;
Otherworldly jewels.
Allow the sun just a peek,
And the crows a sip,
And a soft tap-tap outside my window.
Swell and rescind
Amidst the rolling immensity.
Reveal your enchantments
As the ghosts revel
In the rise, rise
Of the morning mist.
