The Hermit and the Princess

Sound asleep in her crystal bed While a sightless hermit Recites his incantations Under her rosy feet An apple's venom Creeps onto walls of a throat And an arrow of silence Separates two green birds Apricot orchards grow On her robe Awaiting hot cakes that her hands baked Seven pieces For seven dwarfs only Seven stars Seven sips Seven kisses Seven clusters Seven weeping nightingales Seven ears of corn kneeling down A Kiss from life's lips To each and all of life's scepters A rainbow roars With multi-hued waterfalls Buds of cotton plants are unfolding Bees dripping wax and honey Cocoons convulsively spring about Butterflies dancingly flutter by A red beetle rests atop a mushroom hat Lemons imbibe sweet rose water Water lilies open and expand A satin robe shimmers in the sun Bracelets tingle around the small wrist Cherries hum The hermit sees And light emerges from her yawning eyes
