Lapis Lazuli

Reach into 
Your medicine bag
And gather up the stones
Hold them in your hand
Look at them

Multicoloured gems 
Hum to you
See here
This deep blue rock 
With flecks of gold

It sings to you 
A siren's song
Pulling your thoughts
To other times
Other life's

To a dark night
Long ago 
A silent vigil 
 Upon a star
A wish


Poem I from a series titled Stones ~ Pattra Burnetto Monroe 2011
