The Gentle Neophyte

against the darkness…
the jacaranda flowers in earnest
purple lawn

the gentle
neophyte in fancy clothing
this golden dawn…
bright sparks of new
life in Oz

celestial melody
in the dreamtime garden
the sound of laughter

there’s nothing
more beautiful as your
smiling eyes...
welcoming the new moon
with glee

the visions
of the Dreamer in hot pants...
summer folly

protect and nourish
the fertile crescent of your
soul in times
of drought and flooding rains
oh frisky neophyte of Oz
