Once a brook
Here forever the

beautiful 
      flowing
      like a river
across white
       making something
       from abstraction
       from nothingness
       from the unknown
flowing
       reckless
      perfectness that
cannot be
       contained.

On the edge of our cabin front door, right where the doorbell should be rested, is a beautiful, beautiful luna moth. Also called the American moon moth. How special for this moth to be at our front door and grace us with its stunning beauty.

Luna moth adults live for only about 10 days. Their sole purpose during this time is to mate and lay eggs. The eggs hatch into caterpillars which spend the next several weeks eating leaves. Once they have reached full size, the caterpillars pupate, and a few weeks later, the adult moths emerge. Online dictionary

Spiritually, the luna moth  is associated with femininity, creativity, and imagination. How appropriate that this particular moth was at our front door welcoming us, our creativity and imagination.

Spirituality: Luna moths can mean spiritual growth and enlightenment. Intuition: Some cultures think Luna moths can help guide people. Healing: Luna moths can represent the body's ability to heal. Transformation of consciousness: Some people see Luna moth symbolism to talk about enlightening experiences.  https://a-z-animals.com

She Comes

she comes
sunlit silent grey stoic
rock billions of years old
moss covered boulders
water breaks as she passes by
fresh, clean fragrance
tumbled rocks on the hillside
stairways of stone
chaos and order all in the same place
