Liminal Eden

An eternity embraced by thorns,

ending in absolution.

Eager brambles part 

like a flowering red sea, 

welcoming me to my exodus.

Among branches and leaves

I am rooted.

I dance among a wild tapestry

of lilies and lavender 

that I weave into a 

lush cocoon.

Cloaked in morning dew

I bask in blissful germination

in a liminal Eden.
