Creek Peek

Stars island a midnight stream
as moonlight's exiled beams
pile like petals shed from dew-eyed dreams
beyond reach of a beached mind skimming time
planted by a wavy tree impossible to climb
yet cause of an effect, limbs and claws shaping
wish-thick images and mirror darkness draping
peer pieces of driftwood unknown
edge-treading sight but leaf-sensed, each its own
living whisper on a stone-deaf river,
shell me willingly impaled to a shale shore;
the bell-echo intensity of every self-propelled shiver
stuns into sunshine long-stemmed memories longing for more.
