Poetry Magnum Opus

They lower my coffin into the ground, I rise carried

away by the wind horse in search of a new incarnation,

Clouds form to shape a face-the mourners distant cry's

are matched by those of a mother, I am ready to be

born, her heartbeat echoes that of the horse, she dies

giving birth. I feel the breath of the wind horse as

he takes her away. Years later I watch wild horses

shaking themselves dry and see the face of my mother

in the clouds reflected on a lake.

A surreal reflection on incarnation and myth. Quite enjoyed the picture this painted.

Surreal IS the correct word. The intro to the old TV series "Night Gallery" flashed in my head, but this a far more tempered tale than they would have had. Enjoyed it, too, like Juris.
