cricket rhythms in the night
echo in the firelight
summer grasses tall and thin
cover eyes that wait within
coyote circles under
the open sky in trance and wonder
the sisters of the night revolve
they bend and gather stars that fall
grandmother moon she sheds her glow
and smiles on those who dance below
the owl's twist of flight
flash feathered wings through the night
dark eyes of beauty pierce within
white feathers flap in hollow skin
cry of devotion howls inside
cuts through bone and echoes wide
night's lovers they are turning
the coals that still are burning
