To Be Reborn

By Teresa Williams

What if rebirth
is like stepping into a room,
something ordinary, then
...............Surprise!
Giant crimson tree, temple of hexagons,
a magic cup of moon-tea.

..........................Rebirth.
Incited by luminescence, light chaser, Isis.
Through layers of ancient skin you came
from black to red to breathing center.
Now here, you are the shimmering one
the one who ripples and shines
glittering the air, gold and bright. You
shooting star of a songbird light.

Once again,
feel your freshly found face
flooding the room with new freedom,
star nectar, white queen, gleaming.

And again,
savor this renewal this taste of dawn
as you swallow death's end,
from bitter and night, bitter
then sweet
.............holy crescent,

oracle of brilliance

you

stepping into

.......a new room.
