Pahn

.

Wooded     fur
                                         glades
he wanders
with the Oreyads   the shooing
          dusted
sand
                                spritzing dry on stone      ledges
                                                       spinning in the wind
                                                              calling
                                                                             to him

      “sweet   lover
                      long haired
       unkempt…brush with your wool…”

At evening
on reeds he plays
                                                                  sunset
                                                                             and low

Breezy flutes of presence
                                                        filling
stepping                  lightly
join him
                                           by springs of dark water

          looking into their green         
 blue
                                                       and muddy          eyes
 
                                                                               crying
                                                              against the cliffs

passing from spring
                                                           to cloud
to tree                                                                                     
                                                              now mingling

                                                             now leaving
covered with the skin of a lynx

with his voices                                                           
he meanders                                                                       
turning and returning                                                      
among

the random                                         
flowers                                                                             
grasping    at the passing               

                           drops    through his fingers
