The Song of Seven Veils
…From Heart to Head a Lay…
*
My First is sinuous, scaly and smooth
It is found in lake but not in love,
what is below is like that above…
*
My Sixth lies at sea and in
the depths of the night, it is hard
to engender this spark of light.
*
My Second twinkles on high and
stands proud in the earth, this double
entendre is light strewn when birthed.
*
My Fifth is a man-child
forgotten by time, adrift on
a lotus… the flowering kind.
*
My Third is fire-bright and
flies like a flash, it is feathery
too, forever rising from ash…
*
My Fourth is hawk borne
and can teach us to fly it is
also known as the Silent Eye.
*
…From Head to Heart, a Way…
In Loving Light
