Owning the World
Whatever room she was in
she claimed as her own
Hands full of daffodils
pulled wildly in the joy
of taking all color into her world
Owning the world
owning the living which is equal
to owning the morning sky
when all the stars have disappeared
into the sun and dreams emerged
from that formidable light
Draw light.
Draw living.
Draw death.
What color is the sun when it is sleeping,
What color the earth where she is walking.
What sound echoes in this hallowed place
giving voice to the living
and color to the dead.
