New blog and a poem

I'm going to put my book on a different blog: www.jesse-childe.blogspot.com

here's a poem I just finished

"Child of Light"

Stormy sea and summer’s come
on wings of life, gave birth to the young
satin shore, tide is high,
tide is high, I heard you cry,
“Run to me, child of light
save your breath, save your mind,
run to me, child of light”

Rhelms undone and rehelms unearthed
entwined with rain and visions you cursed
on that day we were alive
so alive, I heard you cry,
“Run to me, child of light
save your breath, save your mind
run to me, child of light”

The rose was burning as I stood
before the sun, like we knew I would
I saw you turn, I saw me fly
you saw me fall, I heard you cry
“Run to me, child of light
save your breath, save your mind,
run to me, child of light”

Veins of heat and electric desire
cracked the heavens like crossed wires
with beating heart and naked spine
I drifted under then rose to the sky
on wings of life created by the swollen tide
by the swollen tide you watched me dive
from the hands of thunder I heard you cry,
“Run to me, child of light
save your breath, save your mind
the dream you have is no dream of mine
Run to me
Run to me....
