I was inspired to write this piece yesterday night, while dancing to this music: Cry Of The CeltsNow, I am part Celtic myself, and this sort of music feels extremely magical and spiritually inspiring, to me. Of course, Celtic music was scattered all over the media in abundance yesterday, as it was St. Patrick's Day, not that I celebrate St. Patrick's Day, but I always love to be reminded! Now, this piece here below just sprang out of me, and I stopped dancing to write it, words were leaping forth, forcing themselves upon me, and I do believe that during this reckless and surprising process, I invented a word! That word is "star-brinked" it is not a real word, but now it is! I don't know what I expected it to mean, it only forced itself upon me and I felt compelled to work with it! So, the definition of "star-brinked", as I define it, is: (adjective): To take on an appearance or reflect that of a feeling that is on the brink of resembling a star.







The Flight Of The Elfin Girl

(March 17, 2011)



Through the forest running fastShe chases the flying four-leaf-cloverHer smile is broader than daylight andThe twinkle in her eye star-brinked and Reflected in the stars this night

The wind has winged herAs the moon snows clovers The four-leaf one takes flight Through the forest she drifts swiftly on the windsTo catch it!

The Elfin GirlHer hair has caught sparks of fireFire from dusts of the sun struck to life by lightning bugsHer ears point up to the night clouds That speckle this starry sky

The music of morning flutes on The Hill of Tara run with herHours before their time has come!And the elfin girl has star-brinked eyesThe color of mischiefAnd wonder

Over the stream she leapsShe's caught the clover in a moonbeam!And in the light of the moon her skin kisses magicBathed in white and transparent calicoThe elfin girl: celestial

Covered by skin, brought to life by graceExquisite and remarkableThe elfin girl free and wildThe elfin girl unleashed and uncapturedThis night we look at forever
