JAVA in my heart

JAVA in my heart

UNSUR

(javanese for elements)

***

HAWA (air)

swirling in & around you

always with you

in your breath

floating

like stardust

shifting with each mood

colors emerge

from the spiral

fusing

blending the space

that connects

me to you

BANYU (water)

my endless flow

brings pieces together

that harmoniously

 part

GENi (fire)

heat emanates from my core

life blossoms

blooms essence

BUMl (earth)

darkened earth

wrapped in blankets of night

 folded in prayer

Stillness ensues

while Spirit reveals

a swollen heart

precious moment

fleeting moment

embracing blackness

holding seeds

of morning
