some days
dreams feel close at hand
lucid
lashes flecked with sand

starlight
the veil worn thin and soft
threadbare
betwixt the flame and moth

bending
a single tender blade
union
an endless windswept glade

Love this - sounds like it was inspired at least in part by this passage of one of my favorite prayers:

“Make me ready in all circumstances, O My God, to serve Thee and to set myself toward the adored sanctuary of Thy Revelation and of Thy Beauty. If it be Thy pleasure, make me to grow as a tender herb in the meadows of Thy Grace, that my movement and my stillness may be wholely directed by Thee.”

Baha’u'llah

Atoosa, thank you! That’s one of my favorite prayers too, and I thought about it as I composed the poem. Good catch. =)
