My Dream of Iris

I dreamt I cast an overarching path
Of coloured scales
Thriving on the solar rays that play upon
The waning of the storm -

I'd thrown a filmy avenue to reconnect
Empyrean with humankind!

Elated, I flitted through refracted hues -
Those from watery spheres that
Fan the iridescent prism.

And more: shimmering sprites in dance atop the spray
Conveyed adieus to gods
Departing for their hallowed visitation...

I woke and pined anon,
Begging Iris: 'Be so kind and

Take us on your wing to new endeavours -
Show that nothing in the ether tempers you!
And every time you render us a rainbow,
See it fires a lust for zest anew!'
