Solstice Sea

The pilgrim came to the shore of the infinite sea
Feral Gardens of the mermaid's lonely song
There he chanted the gift of reprieve
To be sent across the ocean where the rivers merge
At dusk he waded in
And climbed the pinnacle of island
In solitude he reached out to the wheeling stars
Loving hands grasping the Goddess constellation
Fervent madness for her forms
Enchanting the bridge of sighs
Memorizing the dancer's line
For a moment he heard the laughter of ankle bells
A patchouli breeze exhaled by the crash of wave
O Sacred Sea
And so The Solstice passed
And light began its flow to Summer's promise
