AWEN
Awen in the deep floating night.
Awen in the river darkness
Awen in the drops of rain
and the wordless cool vessel of being.
Awen in the scent of wood smoke
and between the lights and between the shadows.
The seesaw of the world,
this fragile weight of balanced moments
haunted by what has gone and seeded by thought
not yet flowered, not yet fruited.
The seed within the cell,
within the roots of blood
and the roads of time.
We are within. We are within.
The awen, our eternal passing breath.
