Cruelty in Cashmere

Warmth
cascades through the stained glass
and the colors rejoice
and ripple across the floor
as the clouds above pass by
Footsteps kick up dust
that becomes swirling halos of emerald, sapphire and ruby
before once more settling to
its earthly beginning
Unfocused eyes see more clearly
the ethereal children at play
Lie down and allow
the dance to dapple your body
Breathe in the heavenly crowns
of light around you
and join in the exultation
