FANTASY/SCI-FI Poem: NIX, by Caryl Gobin Ulrich

Color of rain and sounds of moss and
glitter of flower song falling all about me,
once I was a dewdrop in leaf-tip tremolo.
Evanescence coalesced; my footsteps
trod the forest, tried the highway,
took the byways made them mine and back.
Tumbling water laughs aloud
though silent clouds rejoice.
Sun and shade and cold and heat and
cold again and now.
Silences placed like crystal
against the spoken notes,
fields a bluegreen promise,
I sink down and low and further.
Decumbent liminality
across and bridging world to world,
greening reaches portal through.
Eyes lucent in the ringing dawn,
my self flows clear and
back into the drenching source,
spangling in clean waterlight,
dissolving aqua in the air.
