A blue dragonfly landed on a marsh plant on the bank of a pond.

"Dragonfly IV" by Mark Hiebert

the poem

What if we lived our lives like Tinker Bell?
What if we chose to spread our magic fairy dust
with each flick of the wrist, each wishful thought, each blink
of an eye? What if we applied these confetti sprinkles of light
to any moment or encounter, twinkling like stars
whose brilliance shines even when no one looks at the sky?
What if all we left behind were dust balls of love?
What if these flights were unlimited
by space or time? What if we could transform every thing
by simply blessing it, the cascading starbursts of acceptance
opening all boundaries to knowing
our true being?

Rays of sunlight cascading from storm clouds

detail from "Sky" by Mark Hiebert

the poem

you think
a ray
of sun
reaching
out from
the clouds
is proof
that God
Yahweh
Allah
or some
divine
spark will
ignite
your mind
perhaps
you are
right but
perhaps
God is
dispersed
in this
ghost mist
arching
along
our hills
rising
like a
phoenix
but then
perhaps
Yahweh
is here
enclosed
in dew
drops on
fern leaves
and so
perhaps
Allah
waits there
patient
inside
the space
between
beating
humming
bird wings
and yet
maybe
that spark
crackles
holy
within
your heart
