joy for people to wear

being a seamstress and designer

you're wondering about this

how to make joy

for people to wear as clothes

sprawling in your armchair

staring at your inner still life

trying to get in the zone

breathing to relax

letting go of matter-of-facts

sinking

into a snowdrift of dreams

imagining

your mystical twin

in a pearly pink parka

protected from the snow

smiling at you from inside

a big starry hood like a cowl

in delicate rose

like the sky at dawn

this special type of parka

is called a sleeping dolphin

shining figure-hugging

with a silver lining

and little starry points

far away in the cowl

you ask her how will I get

this pink of early morning

she says go to the forest

go to the thousands of trees

that’s where you’ll find their aura shining

in the forest

go deep into the forest

scoop the pink up in the grail of your hands

and bring it to the city

you say but the forest

is far away and it may not be deep

if it’s near the city where people live

she says then go to a tree

cup your hands like a grail and make a plea

for the shine of their rose pink aura

you wake up aching from sleeping in the chair

remembering the urgent feeling

go to the forest

go to a tree

get the pink of the dawn

scoop it up in your hands for free

but first you’ll try your hand

at sewing a prototype

a rose pink sleeping dolphin

with a silver lining

and a big starry hood like a cowl

standing by the tree

at summer’s beginning

you’re resting on a cool bed

by an open window

outside is your upright flowering

horse chestnut tree

with rose pink blossom candles

feeling fragile

you’re seeking comfort

on the inside of your eyelids

imagining

you going out

swathed in a rose pink cotton kanga

a large rectangle of floral fabric

adorned with sun yellow borders

the exact colour of the inner blossom

standing by the tree you perceive

now is the healing season

the verdant force of Mother Earth

coming in the shape of a heart

pointing upwards

clear green like clean

magic water

a friendly force

just being there

for you to drink with your body

clear green like clean

magic air

a heart-shaped pool

flowering upwards

seeking your body like a lover

filling your empty feelings

reviving the green world

but humans may also tune in

absorbing the verdant force

through their abdomen

or the soles of their feet

just being there

not outgoing but welcoming

sarong of self

closing your eyes
you come close to yourself
just before sleep

folding your mind round your body
wavelike

yourself a sarong
ocean silk blue green
with pink blossom health

while your body is wrapped up
you're thinking
naming the oceans

Indian Ocean
Atlantic Ocean
Pacific Ocean

close to closing your eyes
you keep naming the oceans

are they one ocean only
or separate sea selves

is there one self in the world only
or are we all one

yourself a sarong
ocean silk blue green
with pink blossom health

pink tree coach

you've found
there's a pink pulsating cloud around you
like candyfloss
from your spirited
decisiveness

your mind is heart-shaped
but your heart is mind-shaped
that's how
your deep rose pink intellectualism
becomes a loving surround sound
soothing trees

you're walking through fallen leaves
upright
in the landscape of fall

your mind and heart goes out to trees
embracing
bare branches
tracing
tree memories of leaves
leaving
etheric tracks into spring

this is going to be your life's work
and you want to teach it also

your spirit cheers another step up
