Energy

By Elaine Leighton

I drank the potion of the stars
I kissed the lips of the moon
I flew on the runes of solar winds
I danced among the nebulas and suns

Yet there I was
Still mundane
Still wingless
And tired from cosmic aerobics

But God dipped me in a stream
Of energy
So when I spun on the Creaters hand
I sprouted starry wings

I danced lighter than space
With more than fighter's grace
And floated on winds higher than
The roof of the universe
