Ode To A Swamp

Ode to a swamp
A song that sings within me
Walking along the shoreline
Or paddling gingerly through the waters
The boughs of Your cypress
Dressed in Spanish moss
Wrap me in protection
Offering contrast for my eyes
Prickled with attentive searching for brother and sister lifeforms
There!
The alligator
Architect of habitat for all
There!
The heron
Keeper of the balances
There!
The anhinga
Pointing my way
There!
The dance of the sandhill cranes
There!
Lord Shiva appears as a turtle in a yogic balance upon a rock
Here my soul is peacefully on fire
Here is my renewal
My sustenance
My resting place
Ode to a swamp
A song that sings within me
