Smoke and Mirrors

I catch a glimpse
a movement , a shadow
a sparkle of light as
you dance in the air
Puck doubles back
alights on my shoulder
naughtily whispers
" here I am here"

walking near water
I search the horizon
blustering sea song
fresh in my hair
a silvery flash
and you dive into squid ink
indigo down singing
"Come but stay there"

Sometimes I gaze
through the smoke
of a brazier
worshipping Gods
who never appear
billowing vision of
face in reflection
love tell me love
is that
you
are you there?
