Ekphrastic Tanka #10: Living Olmec

deep down in the earth
high in the heavens
intertwined jungle days and nights
swirling past and future visions
dark enfolds the light

man in the moment
ruler of all he surveys
casting long shadows…

the fallen
lying at the feet
of marching ancestors

sunbeam messengers
light-ly caressing
feathery faeries…

waves which are ocean made of ocean

unmoved, unmoving…

mind of ice, mind of heaven…

A Heaven Earth and Man haiku….

Riding the rock runes of Celtic shape shifters…
