human dolphin

near sleep

sensing you’re by the sea

with limbs and breath sun-soaked

feeling the sun on your eyelids

warming through your mind

filling your lungs

expanding

exhaling

a tall auric heart rising

above your resting form

fragments of thoughts fading

into shades of nourishing dreams

imagining

your mystical twin

dressed in the sea and his golden heart

speeding through the surf

with sunshiny eyes smiling

from another realm angelic

both human and delphinic

sky and ocean uniting

to build him a puff-sleeved

jumbo joy of life spacesuit

for use in the sea blue

sparkling non-plastic

biodegradable

idealistic

dazzling and jumping

he’s guiding you along

the longitude of waves

pushing you gently

performing his water show

to keep your spirits high

coming to the rescue

a psychic paramedic

listening assessing

your need for help and guidance

the two of you can talk

sea-speak marine

quirky dolphin thoughts

received by the outer reaches

of each other’s mind

this is your wavelength

you can always tune in

he’ll bring you safely to land

coming to the rescue

bringing love and friendship

thalassic compassion

in his sparkling dolphin smile

you wake up feeling protected

by a human dolphin

there’s an image

before your inner eye

of a big light shining

through his white cotton t-shirt

his golden helper’s heart

rain coaxing

sleep is hard work

in this long wave of heat

your skin covered in a fine

diamond party shine of sweat

but you're trying

deepening into your body

loosening your grip on day

filling your lungs with the memory

of fresh night air

turning your sight inwards

imagining

you in a flowing unknown dress

delicate moon white but made

from something robust raincoaty

parachute like but elegant

with one shoulder free

you wear it with a fluffy lavender cardigan

barefoot in the park

visiting your special tree

the big serene horse chestnut

greeting you with joy but now

emitting low energy

the leaves a shrunken crepe paper

tired green

suddenly alarmed

catching tree thoughts

you let your cardigan fall

a luminous lavender shred

on the dark dry ground

and start dancing

in your moon white basic

coaxing a near-invisible shine

of moisture from the night air

shimmering young rain spirits

looking down on earth

from their little protective caves

in heaven

just clear and cool living

in the palace of heaven

you're dancing a prayer for moisture

to the green world

rain dancing rain coaxing

the diamantine shine

from spirit to misty to moist

come come out to play

in a dream within a dream

you wake up tense and poised like a dancer

tomorrow you're going to start training again

storm walker

confused

wanting to rest and regroup

you're introverting

but at the same time reaching out

with your thoughts

hands feet to the four points

of the compass

breathing

from earth to sky

surrounding yourself with a heart cocoon

imagining

you in your place of birth up north

standing looking at the sounding waves

protected by your waterproof parka but most

powerfully by a giant infinity scarf

knitted in yarn anthracite on white

an intricate iconography

of runes like grain or rain

big soft circle wound around your neck

protecting your lips against the icy bite

but going on long enough to embrace all of you

infinitely

not knitted by you

but a labour of love from someone

always there for you by your bed

when you were a kid

always asking

dear love

what is it

you wore this warm love circle for years

whenever walking in a storm

but it disappeared

in the long run

you're retrieving it from memory

and it's really a soul retrieval

there's an answer in the storm

and it's a question

can you hold a clear wave in your heart

storm walker

can you face the music

because love made a snuggly circle

to keep you warm

and you cannot live without being warm

dear love

what is it

said your shelter from the storm

wrapping your circle scarf tighter

around your fragile body warmth

listening to the breakers in your heart

striding along the strand

there's an answer in the storm

and it's a question

can you find your shining will to live

storm walker

yes

you're waking

yes

you're rising

yes

you're moving on

you can face the music

composing loving circles of your own

Vera Kelgart  (with chlorite coated crystal 'Sylph')  2016

in the cloud

aligning yourself with the direct road to the sky

your spine a stem pointing upwards

you're tracing a big oval heart around yourself

breathing the heart

closing your eyes

imagining

you in your cloud sheath

that's your name for it

soft oyster white strapless wrap

knee-length maybe silk-like but softer

like breath sprinkled with twinkles

star-like sequins

usually you'll see stars in a clear sky

but these are stars in the cloud

and now there are voices

that'll be the children

you feel their hands grabbing your hands

all of your hands like you're a goddess

with many hands

they're holding on to you

holding on to the soft starry cloud

your slender frame is wrapped in

a party-like sheath but comfortable

puffy and soothing like soft dream beds

in bedtime stories for kids

you're transmitting this white fantasy shell

softness to the children of the world

they're coming to be near you

from all global corners

calling your name in their dreams

reaching for one of your many hands

you're the mother of hope and encouragement

the big sister of future laughter

your hands are their university

your cloud sheath the pillow they lean on

up in the air for a breather

during your working day you'll stop and pause

glimpsing the verdant globe moving

in a stream of light

blue island watching

deep in your heart there's a door

you go through it

breathing the brisk breeze freely

focusing the lens of your inner eye

imagining

you in that pineapple yellow tankini

and your big kanga blowing like a sail

sky blue and white around your waist

on your blue island watching

over the glass blue waves

over the seagulls hang-gliding

in the turquoise horizon

like you're watching over

mother's milk of peace

undiluted strong child of the sun

welcoming all people seeking

the nourishing pineapple yellow joy

the blue and white universal pattern

of good thinking

relaxing at home in life

welcoming seekers of harmony

at home in your yellow tankini of youth

running across the sands with wide spread wings

of blue and white fine porcelain days

nourishing pineapple childhood years

of sight sound taste smell touch

protecting the sun in the island's midriff

embracing horizons but at home forever

a safe place in the world's memory

wrapped in your kanga the blue and white

of a clear island day

welcoming

trying to bring the island to everyday life

you're translating it into

a warm-hearted genius

Vera Kelgart  (with channeling Lemuria crystal)  2016

sounding board

you're thinking a protective circle

or heart-lookalike shape

snuggling it around you

breathing it in

settling down inside

imagining

you in your work clothes

beautiful dancing in the streetwear

slim black jeans shiny black tee

white hard-wearing trainers

a low-key anonymous outfit

except for your pendant

a gold treble clef

being in a worldwide team

of listeners dressed the same but delicious

at least to your own eyes

listening to people in the street

keeping alert to human interest

following movements like a dancer

athletic empathic

listening to life

people will talk to you and your mates

because you're a sounding board

dancing in your street simplicity gear

jumping to conclusions

landing on your feet

you're listening

beyond the everlasting talk

to the music of the spheres

resting

on a deep bass tone

january

cradling your body
in half-sleep
you feel green leaf
after green leaf touching
your dreamy mind

you only wanted this one nightdress
white cotton with a green leaf pattern
not warm enough for january
your friends slightly shivering
at the sight

but you need to sleep
in this gentle scalloped cotton
when you wake up rested
ready for a new year
you'll offer the world a green leaf



Vera Kelgart  (with golden healer Herkimer)  2016

in the sun

time was
when you roamed the white beaches
together with your true love and your friends
in the arms of a turquoise day
always listening to the music

you in your simple sundress
just a halter-neck
with folds flying free
carrying the music
in the white linen lawn
like the firmament carries the sun

years have gone
but you're you anyway
still listening to the music

relaxing deep inside
in the arms of a turquoise day
together with your true love and your friends

that white linen lawn
folds flying free
caressing your skin

despite ageing
despite frustrations
despite responsibilities
you know you'll always be
in the sun



Vera Kelgart  (with grounding crystal)  2015

territory

in your wool wrap sweater
greyish blue as your native sea
you're at home

grey daylight waves
loud gulls' calls
you're at home

you have no time for fair weather
you need your territory
pulling your foam white cuffs
over your wrists in the storm

competent resilient
all you need is your territory
petrol blue grey alpaca
softly worn
and you'll be forever hardy
forever young

your wool wrap sweater
you mostly wear it open
great wings softly taking off
exposing your heart to the storm



Vera Kelgart  (with chlorite-included crystal)  2015

feathers

you only shrugged into this jacket
knit in ice-blue snow-white sacred
Arctic geometry attracted
by its diamantine quality

but the perfect fit made your world shift
you find yourself a spontaneous shamanic
seabird's counsellor
soothing stormy feathers

blowing cool air on an iceberg
warming eggs in the heart-shaped cavity
of your clairvoyant hands

stroking the eider's tousled feathers
caring for the kittiwake
restoring reassuring steering

heart to heart with the guillemot
playfully ruffling the puffin's feathers
resuscitating reuniting clearing

it's a shaman's jacket
a motherly shaman's jacket
you never knew you were
a motherly shaman till now



Vera Kelgart  (with Lemuria crystal)  2014

relying

since you were young you've always had
a milky white Aran sweater

always inhaling the natural fragrance
of wool
your face pressed against your sweater sleeve
the taste of sea milk

the knit cables braided you together
with your early close-knit circle
of loving people

and now years later you're still
relying on the spirit of the sweater
anchoring you
in your new love circle
reaching out to the world

relying on you relying
on love and sea milk
the foam of life

you're an anchor relying
on your loved ones relying
on you relying
on this chunky fragrant pattern
of love

they'll never lose you
and you'll never lose your way
you're an anchor relying
on these special braided cables
of belonging



Vera Kelgart  (with smoky elestial crystal)  2014

sleeping beauty

sad
there's not much light
is this you
you've lost track
of your inner side

snow
solace
at least it's white
you're sinking
into the red berries
watching

a ring of gold
is buried in the snow
you're still here
but still

a living shell
covering a treasure
you

alive
so happy in your red sweater
dreaming passion
dreaming laughter

protect
your sleeping self
forget
impatience
enjoy
hibernation



Vera Kelgart  (with grounding crystal)  2014

summer white

your white lace mini shift
hemstitched
with small embroidered conchs
whispering white on white

summer white
people say it won't keep
but you keep it and keep it
and yourself inside

integrity
people say it won't wash
but you wash it and wash it
on delicate cycle
a little rough
against everyday life
you never use softener

your white lace mini shift
hemstitched
with small embroidered conchs
whispering white on white

you mend it and mend it and mend it



Vera Kelgart  (with time link crystal)  2013

content

what do you want to be
your answer used to be
don't know

the world being full
of people doing something
doing the same thing
so why should you
why would you
even try

but in school today
someone taught you
how to make a vase
a small container
sculpted with your hands
then glazed

now you know who you want to be
someone containing the world
making bowls cups chalices
vases flagons grails

making life containers
joy containers
world containers
that's what you want to do

but surely the world is already full
of people making lots of things
the same things

but then again
the world needs containers
all the time
for all kinds of things
and that's what you want to do

your work dress is white ripped cotton
but your working hands are wrapped
in a lavender blue scarf
in the evening
you zip it around you
it's your sleeping bag
for dreaming world shapes



Vera Kelgart  (with Isis crystal 'Sophia')  2013

the deer mystery

why is there more deer in the snow
or is it just that they show
brown against white

gracious graceful mobile beings
restful in your company
they don't seem to shy away
why

you're a city girl
you're not often outside the boundaries
but this slice of trees seems to be
dream forest stretching into
city fantasies

you're walking quite near
the stags does brown fawns
left to your inner city compass
with the snow's light on your right

and you're wondering
could the deer be there
could people
is a border even necessary

one step down to the forest
one step up to the city

enchanted deer running
on a flight of horizontal stairs

snow spinning
white filigree on two floors

friends
aliveness
meeting halfway on a staircase

people feeding lost fawns
deer guiding lost kids

city girl walking warm
in your one step down jacket
you're wondering



Vera Kelgart  (with gateway crystal)  2012

human link

one out of many
you are holding earth
in your heart's sight

holding the glittering green globe
a ball in the air
of your will united

breathing the moist misty white
keeping the blue waters running

earth dreamer
linked in with other earth dreamers
keeping faith
holding the globe
giving breath
they are your tribe

you're an earth dreamer
seeking detecting connecting
with other earth dreamers
holding the glittering green
breathing the moist misty white
keeping the blue waters running

keeping the ball in the air
of your love united

holding hands
linking the globe
keeping faith
they are your tribe



Vera Kelgart  (with double terminated crystal 'Steps')  2012

future talker

in your sleep
in your dream shape
you're like a rowan tree
first in a blur of white
then with your red pearls
set in green filigree

no words
just music
but when awake
you're a talker
talking future
into fading people
at summer's end

you say here comes the future
talking about the red and green
life is a path of adventure
you say can't you see
the sun

when awake you're a talker
but in your sleep
in your dream shape
you're like a rowan tree
no words
just music

you know summer
will never really die
it just becomes internal

you say here comes the future
you say can't you see
can't you see
the sun

self healer

elderflower is your symbol
and you are so alike
common

sturdily delicate
bodily headstrong
you say move on

you're vulnerable
but you know how to step aside
from past distortions
you just move on

caring for your light heart
making nights white
elderflower is your symbol

you say move on
move on

vulnerable
you're vulnerable
but you know how to step aside

caring for your light heart
it's common
common

and you say come on
light is for free

blossom citywalker

the day is new and icy
you've started walking
through the frozen city
in your heavy hiking boots
like the girl from Botticelli

it's before before before
the blossom's riot
and you're walking

people still freeze
standing around like statues
but you're so warm
you're preparing the streets
for the blossom's riot

all people see
is your heavy hiking boots
they don't realize
you're draped in white and rose
like a walking cherry tree

before before
the blossom's riot

winter took a lot out
of this cold city
but you're so cool
in your heavy hiking boots
like the girl from Botticelli



Vera Kelgart  (with 'lightsaver' crystal)  2011

lilac

you've been crouching
all crumpled up
in a green leaf
with a fight going on around you

now you're speaking
you just can't stop
it's a desperate situation
but you don't do desperate

you just can't help unfurling
your frills of light

everybody's waiting for you
everybody's waiting for you
now you're speaking
in frills of white

the world isn't perfect
but you can't wait for perfect

everybody's waiting for you
everybody's waiting for you
so now you're speaking
your frills of lilac light
