Uisce Spiorad [Spirit Water]
January 10, 2014
Glistening, gleaming, glittering, droplets slipping, sliding, sashaying, down my skin.
One droplet, a gift of the sun and a token of the work it takes to earn its kisses.
One droplet, one for the cooling bliss of earth’s life as it sooths my frothing, bubbling, blistering, thoughts.
One droplet, a glint of the warmth around my heart as it heats, warms, and emblazes my skin, just enough to begin again.
Three droplets, one each to give cooling, cleansing, and clarity to my skin, my mind, my heart, this font I breathe in.
