Puzzle of the Waves

Though you cannot explain How the stories of centuries Are coloured through your veins It’s still as if you speak, with a tongue That no one, not even you, understands Placed like a snowflake A floating feather beneath the weight Scurrying across, the puzzle of the waves A drop in a sea Of an ocean which has no name And what’s in a name anyway But still you cannot explain How your eyes see and what they perceive Through the windows of the sun A vocabulary Of its beauty Turns you through, all of you, inside out But placed on the stars Lay the fingertips of your heart The count of their beat Is your distance from the start Sprint with a shadow While your feet remain glued, to the spot Even though you cannot explain How you hear the pin prick of infinity As it echoes with the angels When they danced with you in a heaven You once called home But still alone in a forever Runs the melody of a song that you sung Through every twist and turn Flows the river, to the lake, only you could have become Tossed like a stone through the ripples Of every pebbles grave And always you ponder, the puzzle Written on the surfaces of waves How your soul sees and what your spirit perceives As you live and as you breathe Through the windows of the sun A vocabulary Of your beauty Turns you through you in all of you, inside out A drop in the sea Of an ocean which has no name And what’s in a name anyway
